WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella will be hosting the upcoming Barmageddon show for USA Network, a new celebrity game show featuring Blake Shelton and Carson Daly. Deadline.com is reporting that the show will be filmed at Shelton's Nashville bar Ole Red, with Daly behind the bar, Shelton taking the stage with his house band for live music sing-alongs, and Bella hosting. The synopsis for the show reads, "In each episode, two celebrities will play a unique set of five games in the bar to win a much-needed prize for a viral Internet sensation each has chosen to support. Plucked from obscurity following their epic misadventures on the Internet, these now-infamous stars find themselves at Ole Red hoping to be redeemed. The competition heats up when the losing rival of each round has a chance to even the score by spinning the Wheel of Redemption, a risky move with hilarious consequences. Shelton and Daly will offer words of encouragement – and heckling, of course – to their celebrity friends. On occasion, they might even step in to show off their skills and play a game or two. Ultimately, the winning team takes home a prize while the losing celebrity must accept the shame of defeat. But this is Barmageddon – even if they did not win, at least they had a ton of fun trying." Nikki was also one of the judges of America's Got Talent: Extreme along with Travis Pastrana and Simon Cowell.
