The Bella Twins were Jonathan Coachman’s guest this week on ESPN Sports Center.
Coach asked how their lives have changed since starring in the hit show Total Divas. Nikki says the show has changed their lives dramatically, raising their profile amongst people who weren’t already WWE fans. The show empowers women & girls and they enjoy being role models. Coach discussed their romantic relationships coming into play on the show and asked if it’s hard to maintain those relationships in the wrestling business. Brie says working in WWE with their significant others has been a positive since everybody can relate tot he same lifestyle. Brie said her husband Daniel Bryan has helped her improve in the ring and Nikki said the same about John Cena.
Coach asks them about being in Paris during the terror attacks back in November. Nikki says they were there for their grandmother’s 83rd birthday and while they were paying the bill at dinner, their driver came and told them he had to rush them to the hospital because of a shooting. They were placed on lockdown and later realized it was a terror attack. Nikki says Cena came to their rescue and got them out of Paris the next day. Brie says it felt like 9/11 for Paris. They also talk about being role models to girls and that’s the biggest honor to them.
Coach brought up the Divas Revolution. Nikki says they are a part of history and it’s been an amazing ride. Nikki is proud of all the women in WWE and believes they have come a long way. They credited Total Divas for helping jumpstart the Divas Revolution. They plugged next week’s season premiere of Total Divas and they teased that Nikki and John Cena could be getting engaged this season.
