Nikki Bella's "Dancing with the Stars" Season 25 partner Artem Chigvintsev believes that the 33-year-old's profession as a WWE Superstar influences the way she dances.

"She's a wrestler... it is kind of hard to dance, because she always tries to lead," Chigvintsev said alongside Bella during an interview with Extra.
"It's hard. I want to get elegant and graceful, I want to see what I can do," Bella added about learning how to dance.
"Dancing with the Stars" also allows Bella to prepare for her upcoming wedding to fellow WWE Superstar John Cena. "I really want to learn my first dance here," she said.
Cena proposed to Bella in the middle of the ring in April during WrestleMania. "I forgot how to breathe," Bella previously said of the moment.
