NIkki Bella officially retires from WWE

[The Amerikkkan Idol]

Paige, Emma, Natalya, AJ. She was never the best and #5 of a top 5 AT BEST. She threw a nice elbow strike and got better than her sister but let's not get crazy here

Paige didn't come up till what 2014/15?

AJ is overrated and was too small to do anything realistically.

She was wayy better on the mic than in the ring

Emma never got over, ever.

The closest she got was with fukkin' Santino Marella, as a comedy act.

Post-Cena Nikki had a better run than them.

I'll give you Natalya, but she's always booked badly, so it's easy to forget how good she is.

Nikki's comp is her sister, Alicia Fox, Eva Marie, Naomi, Cameron, Aksana, Kaitlyn, and people like that.

They even tried to put Jojo in the ring at that point.

The pre-Sasha/Bayley/Charlotte/Becky era was a disaster, because they just treated the Divas as a bathroom break.

I give Nikki credit for actually getting better when realistically, she didn't have to.

Yeah Paige came up 5 years ago almost to the date. That's still during the Divas Era.

AJ is overrated but she is still better than Nikki ever was

We arent talking about being over were talking about in ring and Emma is better than Nikki.

Natalya couldnt be argued by anyone.

Post Cena Nikki had a wealth of talent to work with that came from NXT most of which were lightyears better than her.

I understand giving her credit for getting better but when she first got the t*ts, the elbow and the singles push brehs in here acted like she became this great worker and got grossly overrated. It's the same thing that happened with Trish.

Now Alicia Fox, Naomi and Kaitlin can be argued as well but I didnt include them because I'm not so sure if they are better or on the same plane. Either way Nikki was never the best worker in her division. Somewhat undeserved hate or not

I just blatantly disagree with AJ. She was too small to ever be a believable worker to me.

I've never seen Emma have a great match outside of NXT. On the main roster she was a comedy act who really didn't do anything.

It's not like she got to wrestle these great matches when Divas were getting 1 minute matches on Smackdown.

AJ wasnt wrestling gargantuan. She wrestled other women and there arent even weight divisions for them. On top of that her style was striking and submissions so it worked perfectly for her size.

Emma's booking doesnt dictate her rate of work negatively than Nikki's does positively. And even with those NXT matches, they were better worked than Nikki's. Paige vs Emma kicked off the Women's Revolution not anything Nikki did. Her contributions are minimal and she doesnt at all live up to the padded legacy they gave her.

Can’t really recall any classic Bella matches people will remember for years

I agree, but I'm not talking about NXT.

I was talking about WWE during post-Cena Nikki's era.

In that era, Emma was a comedy act that rarely got more than 2 or 3 minutes in a ring.

I just never got the deal with AJ looking 12 years old trying to fight people.

That's the thing I liked when Nikki came back with the "Rack Attack" and "Bellahammer"

I thought it looked believable because she got a little jacked.

Are we doing the TSC ritual of a trash worker being deified once they leave the company?

I'm waiting for the 'Was Ambrose really that bad?' thread to pop up any day now

I’ll give props to Nikki for improving, but please don’t act like she became prime Bret Hart of the divas division. The WWE re-wrote history for both those Bella broads and that’s the reason they became insufferable. Those chicks were the biggest detriment to the women’s division at one point, a huge reason people were going to the bathroom during women’s matches, and practically were out of the company before they were sitting ringside at indie shows and observing women who were actually legit in the ring, then finally decided to put some effort in their shyt. Nikki became pretty decent (somehow being pegged as a “powerhouse”) and Brie became ok at best, fukking up the YesLock all the time and having a great drop kick. That’s it. But the WWE has put their spin on their careers as if they were cornerstones and the foundation of the division when they just brought eyes from the Total Divas crowd. No one hates them for being women, that sounds stupid as hell.

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Difference is that Nikki Bella worked her ass off to become the best worker at the end of the "Divas" era (pre Sasha/Bailey/Charlotte), whereas the Kardashians have never been anything but worthless

 

[Stop_It_5]

Only Nikki feud where her in-ring work was worth a damn was her SD run against Natty.

One guy is trying real hard

Facts.

Both went from pure garbage to barely passable and have stans acting like they became great workers

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Nikki’s most recent SD run during that period is the most appealing he had ever been. The constant fukkery backstage was great. But the WWE and fans of hers pretend she was doing stuff like that since her debut.

Ambrose wasn't bad.

He was booked bad and stopped giving a fukk. There's a difference

I don't blame anybody who stops giving a fukk in that company.

The only reason they're trying now is AEW got them scared as hell
