“Total Bellas” star Nikki Bella recently spoke with Sky Sports and below are some interview highlights:
On dressing up as John Cena:
“It was actually John’s idea! We did collaborate but he brilliantly came up with it. We were going to do full entrances in a ring and stuff but I had just had dental surgery so I said’ I can’t go in the ring’. He then came up with the amazing idea to do it at the house. He said he was definitely the ugliest girl in the world but I said that’s a good thing – I’ve got a manly man!”
About filming Total Bellas:
“To film with our family is awesome – you have to hang out with each other and I love that because I hate being alone. There were tough moments but I had a blast. I think both shows [Total Bellas and Total Divas] have given an intimate look into our lives and relationships and shown that we are normal people – for example, you have seen how depressed Daniel Bryan became [as he dealt with injuries and retirement]. People also get to see Brie and I’s passion for wrestling. People have realised we are here for wrestling, not anything else.”
Ronda Rousey being an inspiration:
“Ronda Rousey is definitely one – I find everything she has done in UFC so inspirational. Serena Williams is another – she reminds me of John Cena in a way, in that they have stayed on top of their game for so long and so many people still connect with them. She still blows my mind.”
