WWE star Nikki Bella couldn’t help but smile when fans yelled “Coop,” for Eagles cornerback Cooper DeJean, during “Raw” in Philadelphia.
The 42-year-old WWE Hall of Famer, who is a diehard Eagles fan, and DeJean, 22, have been at the center of dating buzz since late 2025, though they have yet to confirm things.
“Philly, what’s up?” Nikki said while in the ring with her twin sister Brie Bella, at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
That’s when fans began yelling “Coop,” however, Nikki thought they were booing.
“Is that for the Eagles not getting in the Super Bowl or for us?” she asked, to which Brie replied, “I actually think they’re saying Coop.”
Nikki smiled and paused to listen to the crowd.
“Can you blame a girl for having good taste?” she said.
“I mean, Pro Bowl baby.”
DeJean — drafted No. 40 overall by Philadelphia in 2024 — won a Super Bowl with the Eagles as a rookie.
He was named AP first-team All-Pro in his second NFL season.
DeJean posted 93 tackles, 16 passes defended and two interceptions for Philadelphia’s top-five scoring defense.
TMZ reported that Nikki and DeJean were “causally dating” earlier this month.
They stirred buzz when she was seen sporting his No. 33 jersey while attending Eagles games during the 2025 season.
She attended the Eagles’ 13-12 road victory over the Bills on Dec. 28.
Before that, she was all smiles while posing at DeJean’s locker after Philadelphia’s 31-0 shutout win over the Raiders on Dec. 14.
Nikki and her ex-husband of two years, Artem Chigvintsev, have a 5-year-old son, Matteo.
She and the former “Dancing with the Stars” pro’s messy divorce was settled in May 2025.
Nikki filed for divorce in September 2024 after Chigvintsev was arrested at their Napa Valley home on suspicion of domestic violence.
During a previous episode of the podcast, “The Nikki and Brie Show,” Bella said she and Chigvintsev are “in a good place” and are co-parenting.
DeJean was previously linked to Steph Wilfawn.
