The Bella Twins Are Going Back To Their Roots In Their Post-WWE Careers – The Famous Wrestling Superstars Will Be Known Professionally By Their Birth Names – nikki And Bree Garcia,
The two announced their decision on “The Nikki & Brie Show… saying it was time to say goodbye to the Bella Twins moniker once their contract was done.” Vince McMahonorganization ended.
Nikki and Brie joined WWE in 2007… and were known as The Bella Twins during their rise to fame and fortune with the promotion.
Nikki explained that the two are much more than wrestlers now — they’re mothers, businesspeople, television producers, and more… and the name change will help them dive into their future endeavors.
Brie said on the show, “I just want to thank Brie Bella, the character, the name, everything that I’ve been through for the last… 16, 17 years.”
“I’m so excited to close that chapter on Brie Bella, put that book to the side, and open a new one and see what Brie Garcia is going to do next.”
“And I’m so grateful for Nikki Bella,” Nikki said. “Nikki Bella, she gave me strength, she inspired me, she really made me fearless. And the road she paved, what she’s done for women and youth – and will continue to do as Nikki Garcia.”
Nikki and Brie say they went by The Bella Twins as a sign that their grandfather told them as kids… but considering WWE owns the rights to the name, the change was pretty much inevitable .
