Nikki Bella Drops Vince McMahon Bombshell

While speaking on The Sessions, Nikki Bella talked about the success of ‘Total Divas,’ and how she essentially got into trouble for being successful. Bella then revealed that Vince McMahon had no creative control over ‘Total Divas,’ which was the only WWE-related thing he had no control over at the time.

 


 

“I think a few, like, as far as the boss, I felt like it was the first time he lost control of what he could make and not make because when Brie and I won Diva of the Year, we got in trouble, and I got yelled at. I remember we came back so happy and it was like, ‘Oh, because you brought in all these new viewers, and the women are now voting for you, and all these new women are here.’

Everyone around was on the floor like, ‘The Bella Twins are getting yelled at for being successful’, because it wasn’t what they wanted because they were the storytellers. They push who they want the crowd to be behind. Perception is reality. That is WWE to a T. Even though the fans think they own it, no, they laugh in the back. ‘No, we own you at the end of the day.’ So I truly believe Total Divas was the first thing they couldn’t control. They couldn’t control the success. They couldn’t control what the mainstream was.”
