Brie Bella

No, you’re not seeing double! This is Brie Bella, the beautiful mirror image of her sister Nikki. Together, these twin WWE Divas are out to prove that two is always better than one.

Best known as one-half of the sensational Bella Twins, Brie made her WWE debut on the August 29, 2008 episode of SmackDown by defeating her first opponent, Victoria, via “Twin Magic”—a maneuver where she and her twin sister, Nikki, secretly switched places during wrestling matches. On April 11, 2011, the sneaky tactic assisted Brie in defeating Eve to win the Divas Championship for the first.

Every bit as crafty as she is stunning, this half-Italian, half-Mexican doll competed on ECW, WWE NXT, WWE Superstars and both Raw and SmackDown, where she partnered with her identical sister in both love and war.

No matter how many WWE Superstar hearts she has broken, Brie is always at her best when she’s breaking down her fellow Divas in the squared circle. After departing from WWE in 2012 to explore other endeavors, the conspiring twins returned the following spring to unleash a new wave of “Twin Magic” on any WWE Superstar or Diva who stands in their way.

Outside of WWE’s squared circle, Nikki and Brie have flourished as the premiere attraction of the popular E! reality series Total Divas, alongside castmembers Cameron, Eva Marie, Naomi, Natalya, Rosa Mendes and Summer Rae.

On April 11, 2014, Brie married longtime boyfriend Daniel Bryan in an intimate ceremony at L’Auberge Resort and Spa in Sedona, Arizona. The wedding was captured by E! cameras and featured in the Season 2 finale of Total Divas. The couple’s honeymoon, however. was short-lived. Upon his return to Raw, Bryan was informed that he would be defending his WWE World Heavyweight Championship against the barbarous Kane at Extreme Rules; he was flattened with three Tombstone Piledrivers by The Devil’s Favorite Demon, shortly after. On the April 28, 2014 episode of Raw, Kane targeted Brie during her impromptu Divas Championship contest against Paige, tearing through the ring and trying to drag her to “hell.” Even after Bryan seemingly conquered Kane in their Extreme Rules Match, Kane continued to stalk Brie and Bryan, who underwent neck surgery to repair lingering injuries that were only aggravated by the marauding demon.

After the recovering Bryan refused to relinquish the WWE World Heavyweight Champion on the May 26, 2014 Raw, Stephanie McMahon issued a startling demand: Either Bryan surrenders his championship at WWE Payback, or Brie would be terminated. Brie instead took control of the situation and quit WWE—saving Bryan’s title and giving Stephanie a farewell slap.

Stephanie, however, would return the slap on Raw on July 21. As Brie sat at ringside as a paying attendee to support her twin sister Nikki, The Billionaire Baroness confronted the former WWE Diva and, following an intense exchange, slapped Brie across the face. This demonstration of hostility incited Brie to involve the authorities, who arrested Stephanie on battery charges.

Brie would drop the charges the following Raw in exchange for her job and a match at SummerSlam against Stephanie McMahon. On the following week’s show, the contract signing for this contest broke down after an intense verbal exchange ended when Stephanie lashed out and delivered a Pedigree to both Brie and Nikki As if that wasn’t enough, Stephanie uncovered an apparent scandal only six nights prior to their match at The Biggest Party of the Summer, when Daniel Bryan’s physical therapist Megan claimed to have had an affair with the Aberdeen, Washington native. Brie slapped Miller in response to this alleged betrayal and was, in turn, arrested as Stephanie looked on. At SummerSlam, Brie fell to Stephanie after her Nikki walloped her with a stunning streaking, leaving Brie vulnerable to Stephanie for defeat.

After SummerSlam, Nikki stated that the ambush on her sister was a long time coming, with claims that that Brie has been “selfish” and “manipulative” since adolescence. Nikki appeared to sever all ties with her sister on the August 25, 2014 episode of Raw, when she said she wished that Brie had “died in the womb.” The following week, after Nikki continued to expose the “truth” about her sister, she offered Brie one final chance to mend the fence: to quit WWE. Brie chose physicality instead, shoving Nikki down to the canvas.

One way or another, the determined Brie will attempt to rectify this family strife.

For Your Information

How can people tell Brie apart from her twin sister Nikki?: In a 2009 interview with WWE Magazine, the twin duo explained how people can tell them apart. Brie said, “I have two beauty marks on my chest, and our faces are shaped differently. We joke that I have more of a banana head, and Nikki has an apple head. She has the bigger booty, too, which she’s proud of.”

Nikki added, “Oh, heck yeah! I carry way more curves than Brie. And I usually have a flower in my hair. I love celebrating my Mexican-Italian heritage, and a flower makes me feel Spanish…and pretty!”

Another way to tell the identical twins apart is by a tattoo. Brie has a tattoo just above her waistline while Nikki does not.

Daniel Bryan: Brie Bella got engaged to fellow WWE Superstar Daniel Bryan on September 25, 2013 after dating for almost three years. Bryan popped the question while on a hike in Big Sur, California.

“I have never in my life seen him so nervous. I’ve been by him when he’s gone out for WrestleMania and some really big things,” Bella revealed to EOnline.com. “He got really, really nervous and he started talking about how long we’ve been together. He got down on one knee and compared our love. He said he’ll love me forever like the ocean goes on.”

Bryan was biding his time to pop the question in order to have that perfect moment. “I’ve had the ring for a long time. Just trying to find the moment that fits,” remarked the Washington native. “A moment that’s worthy of Brie.”

The marriage proposal was broadcast on the season one finale of E!’s Total Divas (airdate December 15, 2013).

Has Brie Bella ever appeared nude?: While Brie Bella has never posed nude, she has suffered a wardrobe malfunction that displayed a glimpse of nudity.

During a segment promoting E!’s Total Divas on the July 22, 2013 episode of Raw, Brie’s nipple inadvertently popped out of her top. By order of WWE officials, she went on Twitter to apologize for the unfortunate mishap.

“I apologize 4 my wardrobe malfunction I’m embarrassed & it looks as though the humidity made my tape come off,” stated Brie immediately following the show. “You’ll never see that again!”
