Bengaluru, Feb 23: As reported earlier, Kelly Kelly might have re-signed with the WWE, recently. She is a former Divas champion and left the company in the year 2012 after suffering a neck injury.
Since then, she has been featured in the WAGS TV show to become a famous TV star and stayed away from the wrestling business.
She also married Sheldon Souray to get settled which indicated that she is not keen to be back into in-ring competition.
This was until the last week when she was spotted backstage on Raw and stated, “I would love to do one more run … in the future."
It was very exciting being back! https://t.co/XPSWgQxQ1W

As per her indication, she will be attending the Wrestlemania Axxess at Orlando, Florida which was another hint of her getting back on board with WWE.
Now, Dirty Sheets podcast has stated that the Diva with real name Barbie Blank has signed a two-year deal with the company.
Upon her debut on the main roster, she will be doing the role of Emmalina which was taken away from Emma.
WWE Creative still has some big planning with the character and thought that Emma will not be able to do proper justice to the role. Hence, she had to go back to her previous villainous gimmick.

WWE needed someone very gorgeous for the character who can resemble the former gimmicks pulled off by Sable or Torrie Wilson for the role and who better than Kelly Kelly? During her beginning days in the ECW, she was given the task of skin show, as per the then tradition.
Now that we are in the PG Era, it will be much easier for her to do full justice to the role. Plus, she already has a huge fanbase among the WWE Universe which will automatically generate more attraction from the audience.
It is also being speculated that the delay of Emmalina's debut was due to the fact of Kelly getting under contract with WWE.
This caused a dilemma for the creative whether they retain Emma in the role or replace her with this former Divas champion.
