Nikki Bella Announces Her In-Ring Retirement From WWE


During last night's episode of Total Bellas, former two-time Divas champion Nikki Bella announced that she is retiring from WWE to concentrate on her own businesses.

Nikki's last televised match was at the Evolution pay-per-view on October 28, when she lost to Ronda Rousey. She then wrestled on WWE's tour of Europe in November and her final match on the tour and possibly of her career as of now, was a loss to Rousey on November 9 in Bologna, Italy.

Also during this season of Total Bellas, Brie Bella announced that she was also retiring. She made the announcement on the March 10 episode, where she stated to her family that she was fully retired after the WWE Evolution.

After the season finale of Total Bellas finished airing, the Bella Twins announced on their official Twitter that they were starting a new podcast. The podcast is called "The Bellas Podcast" and the first episode will be on this Wednesday.
