Starting point is 00:02:32 All right, let's get into it. Here are Nikki and Bree, the Bella Twins. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Battleground. I've got to tell you, this is actually pretty cool for me because in studio right now, I have two women who not only just became stars in the WW, but they've also changed the game, helped open doors for an entire generation. and somehow in the middle of all that, built an empire with total divas and total bella's, motherhood, business.
Starting point is 00:03:13 And now, of course, Benita, Benita. And with that being said, welcome in, I'm trying not to get cursed. The Bella clones. I'm just kidding. The Bella twins are in studio with us right now. How are you guys doing? Oh, my God. We're in Nashville.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Yeah, Nashville. We're here with you. Yeah, we're having a lot of fun. Life is good. I mean, I was following along on social media watching all. all the fun you guys were having last night. You were at Allred and posties and just seeing the long line on social media of people showing up to hang out with you. Wrestling fans, wine connoisseurs.
Starting point is 00:03:47 Now, I got to tell you, I am not much of a wine guy. I'm more of a whiskey kind of bourbon kind of guy. So how do you convince somebody like me to pour a glass of, you know, Benita Benita? Well, I feel like it would have to be with us in Napa Valley. Okay. And we'd have to... Or in Nashville. Or in Nashville, you're right. What do me?
Starting point is 00:04:08 Yeah, but I mean to really give you the vibes and the feeling. Well, and I would say we'd have to do bubbles, a little of our bonita, bonita. But see, I feel like there's a lot of people like you here in Nashville that love their bourbon and whiskey and all that. And so you appreciate a good palate. Mm-hmm. And do you like food? Yeah, absolutely. Okay.
Starting point is 00:04:27 So I would look at it as like, okay, so I'm here in Nashville and I have this experience. And you know what? I'm craving this food. and I want to pair it not with my typical whiskey or bourbon. Let me pair it with a good glass of wine. And I feel like starting there, you know, just have a little sip. Good. Yeah, you know, do a little sip and pairing.
Starting point is 00:04:45 And then you're like, okay, I'm kind of feeling it because, you know, for us, wine, as we all know, wine buzz is like one of the greatest. Yes. It's fun, and that's why I was saying napping. Because I was thinking wine tasting is always like the best way for someone who doesn't enjoy wine to get into wine. Just get a little taste. All right.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Now, I will tell you this. I did have some wine a while back, and it was canned wine. And we did this thing where they're like, oh, you got a shotgun. They didn't tell. They didn't tell me that inside this canned wine was actually an entire content of a bottle and a half. And it was like a 12 ounce can. And I shotguned it. And I was like, what is happening?
Starting point is 00:05:22 Did you have the worst hangover? It was awful. Awful. Awful. No, you can't ever do that. Well, and I thought, well, they're like, oh, you could shotgun a beer. So shotgun this can of wine being cool. I thought, ah, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:05:32 No, that was a bad idea. That's like your turnoff of it. Yeah. Yeah, that's terrible choice. Wine can't ever be chugged. Yeah, I learned that the hard way. Yes. Yeah, honestly, right?
Starting point is 00:05:45 Now, sticking with the wine topic, if you had to name your next bottle after the most iconic Bella Twins moment, what moment gets the label? Oh, that's tough. Wow. Right? I mean, I would say probably
Starting point is 00:06:02 like it would be the Hall of Fame wine. You know, it would have to, I think, maybe be like a Hall of Famer. Yeah. Or something with the word divas. Yeah. Right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:14 And when you think of a moment, I mean, the Hall of Fame moment's good. Yeah. But, I mean, I think individually if we had our own bottles. So one together we would do would be like, Hall of Fame.
Starting point is 00:06:24 Yeah. You know. And then for me would be like longest raining divest champion. Yeah. And I like that moment. I'm kind of thinking. Okay. That it would be when Nikki turned on me at SummerSlam and joined the authority.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Yeah. And I would have to think of like there's always that one in the family. Uh-huh. You know, that'd be the back label. And then it would have to be like a really good red blend because a lot of families have that one. Mm-hmm. Well. So mine would be bubbles because obviously mine's about.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Celebration, work moment, making history. And my label would look like when Alicia Fox and Bree were lifting me up on their shoulders. And I was going like this to Charlotte, well, to be flares, Rick and Charlotte. And then Becky and Paige, you know, rubbing in their face that I just became a long-streamed and he was champion of all time in WWE history. So should we do a try pack? Try back. Hall of Famer.
Starting point is 00:07:26 I think those are good. Deceiver. Good mobrater. Great. Collectors edition. And, you know, they start up great debates. Absolutely. And that's all about wine, experience, conversations.
Starting point is 00:07:38 I think we just created some new wines that's going to be coming out soon. So, you know, it's awesome to see how things have changed with today's women's division in WWW, right? Main events, longer matches, bigger stories. Do you all ever look back at that and think, yeah, we help build this? I mean, you definitely look and you're like, wow, I had a part of this path. that is where the women are at today. And obviously we know, like, there's so many of us that contributed to that path. But it is incredible to know.
Starting point is 00:08:09 And to be in the locker room now and, you know, see what the girls, like, are doing. And just knowing, at one point, we're in a locker room wishing for all this. And but now, you know, here we are. So, yeah, we definitely do. Oh, yeah. It's always a pinch me moment. And I feel as women, a lot of women who have not only have created history, wherever part of the world that they're in or industry.
Starting point is 00:08:34 But I think of women of the past who have paved a road and they never usually get to see that road. I don't want to say finish, but like where it comes to life. So I always feel so grateful that I got to be a part of a road that was paved and I get to actually now be in it. I get to experience these different things. You know, I think of women who fought hard for us to vote and never probably got a vote a day in their life.
Starting point is 00:08:58 They were already, you know, had passed on. So I feel so blessed in that way to see it. Only when I've watched it, but now that I'm back and going to get to be a part of it, I'm like, that doesn't always happen for women like us at all. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. And speaking of somebody else who also has helped the new generation of wrestlers, we recently had Natty on the show.
Starting point is 00:09:18 And we had a conversation with her about bringing back total divas. And she said she wants to bring it back. She wants to spearheaded. Listeners were all commenting on who they should bring back, Obviously, of course, your names have been brought up. If that call came in tomorrow, are you in to bring back Total Divas? Well, we've had conversations about it for years about bringing it back. And we've always pushed hard for that because it really helped the women not only showcase what they can do in and out of the ring,
Starting point is 00:09:51 but it gave our voices such a big platform. And so I feel like now what the women are doing, Total Divas, it's a perfect time for it to be back and to showcase what these women are doing, how they're delivering. And I want to know what some of them are doing inside and outside the ring. If they were to call, I mean, we are back right now. So, you know, it, yeah, you know, they might be a yes. And yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:17 You know, I'm like, what's the age difference? Drama might be a little different. Because I think a lot of fans are wanting to see that, especially with most recently some of the girls posting their Coachella. experiences and you see all them together and it seems like everybody is there for everybody. So it would be a fun little thing to bring back total divas, bring back total bellows, if that's the case. We've talked about this and I'll be honest, a push hard for both divas and bea's in their own ways
Starting point is 00:10:45 to come back because I do feel like they're different shows than Unreal. We are more docu follow in a series and more docus soap. And that's, they're more documentary based and showing, you know, they're just different. And so I do feel like, because the girls, there's different groups and they all have fun. And it would, and then it's competitive. And I think there's drama, for sure. And there is drama. So we wouldn't even have to write about that.
Starting point is 00:11:17 It just happened. And it was so great, too, for fans to connect with us in our personal lives. And then just know our backstories. and then when they saw Scott to the ring, I felt like they appreciated more of like knowing the hard times we were going through. Yeah. And how we pull it together to go, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:33 to walk through guerrilla and get to that ring. And so, I mean, I think there's a mess if they don't do it. I agree. And there's so many girls. I know that would love to do it. That it would be really fun to watch. Well, we were even chatting that like total divas should be like so much about the new.
Starting point is 00:11:48 And then obviously need some OGs there. But Total Bellas with the OGs would be really cool because our fan base is still so strong, but to see the evolution of the OGs. So Trin and Natty, even Eva, a few of the other girls who, you know, Paige, Naya, when we all were chatting and we'll send each other photos that pop up in our phone.
Starting point is 00:12:08 I'm like, how was this 14 years ago? Yeah. I was like, Paige Breed and Natty time in London. I'm like, that was 14 years. So I think it would be really great because we still have that reality fan base. And I think it would be really cool for them to also see, you think of how many of us become moms.
Starting point is 00:12:25 and entrepreneurs and are doing so many different things, but also making returns. I mean, think before Naomi got pregnant, she was, I mean, doing so many incredible things and now you can see you're being a mom. And can you imagine her and it's so weird to get that inside look of them as parents together, you know? And then I think it's kind of cool what Arion's doing
Starting point is 00:12:44 in her own way with wrestling and how she's evolved in her own career. I think there's a lot there. And people were really connected and invested in those OGs. And I think, you know, Eva getting divorced. Like, I want to know the tea there and I want to watch. So I've been there. A little bit like, so old and new. Old and new.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Old and new. And I think we get a little glimpse of, you know, Total Bell, excuse me, when we sit there and watch social media because we're getting behind the scenes of all these Benita Benita signings that you guys are doing. How fun is that getting to do these signings and meeting not only wrestling fans, but Wino's as well? Oh, my gosh. It's a trip.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Because we'll have like a conversation about WrestleMania with someone. And then the next person, we're having like a conversation about this incredible winery in Italy and like wines and. Yeah. But we love it. Like we love the fact of two of our biggest passions in our lives can actually come together. Who would have been wrestling and wine? And how many wrestling fans we brought into wine? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:46 And they love it. Because it is a fun experience. And we make sure what they love is when they come into our tasting room, they're either gonna we have you know our premium wine which napa valley wine is very premium but then we've also been on a hunt for over eight years on finding a very affordable wine but that still tastes great because bella's don't drink shit like no don't drink it can't sell it so won't and that's like our new wine that's taken over las Vegas now taking over Nashville it's bonita bonita by nicky and brie and we have three varietals our chardonnay right here it got rated 90 points do you know how hard it is to get

Starting point is 00:15:36 Bell, connection is everything. Hi, I'm Bob Pittman, chairman and CEO of IHard Media. I also led the team that created MTV, and my co-founders and I are celebrating MTV's 45th anniversary this month on my podcast, Math and Magic, Stories from the Frontiers of Marketing, you'll hear the untold origin story from the people who built MTV from the ground up. I want my MTV! Those are powerful words, my. Something for me that felt like mine and want.
Starting point is 00:16:06 What a powerful word. Listen to math and magic, stories from the Frontiers of Marketing on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or whatever you get your podcast. What's up, fam? I'm sports journalist Ari Chambers. Hey, what's up, y'all? It's your girl, Sam Jay. And we're the host of everyone watches women's sports, a new podcast from Together and I Heart Women's Sports. Because let's be real. Women's sports is giving us way too much to talk about these days. So Kelsey Finler, she became the first female solo rower to go from California to Hawaii.
Starting point is 00:16:36 My first thought is like, what's up with the snacks? Like, what are we eating? The highlights, the rivalries, the breakout stars, the moments that take over your entire timeline. And the conversations that start during the game and somehow keep going all week. Every week, we're breaking down the biggest stories across women's sports. Naomi Osaka showing out. She beat Sabalinka. Shout out to you, Naomi. You get the palm, Naomi.
Starting point is 00:16:59 You get the palm for that. Because we're not just interested in what happened. We're interested in why everyone's talking about it. Because everyone watches women's sports. Listen to everyone watches women's sports on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast. Games Club for $12. And Total Wine & More, I think it's about like 18, 19.
Starting point is 00:17:21 but we really were on a hunt for like good wine that was affordable. And it's our, our Cabernet got 89 points. Our Kuwait is like almost sold out because Vegas, WrestleMania. Everyone was drinking it. Now Nashville wants it. We're about to head into some other states.
Starting point is 00:17:37 But yeah, so it's cool. Now you mentioned WrestleMania and y'all have had some massive moments at WrestleMania. I want to go behind that curtain. Talk about being in guerrilla standing there right before your music hits. Is there one moment that stands out? to either of y'all your WrestleMania moments. Wow.
Starting point is 00:17:55 I mean, gosh, I mean, it's hard because they're all so different and just being a part of a big one this past WrestleMania, you know, with Nikki breaking her ankle two weeks before, us kind of being like, what are we going to do? Yeah. Because there was a lot of things that were going on. Like, I was like, should I just sit out with Nikki until she gets better and come back with her? you know like we were thinking like would you know we both like would page do it can she do it like there's so many two weeks sounds like a lot of time it's really not a lot um so i feel like that
Starting point is 00:18:32 being in that moment just recently at russomania 42 and it was really cool because right before we walked out cm punk literally was standing i mean our music's about to hit and he said some really cool stuff to nicky like just you know um like what you're doing is incredible like it's hard to you know be this like where we're at and you're just like come take my spot you know so it was like having that and then all of a sudden our music's hitting we're like hugging him and we're like okay and then just knowing page it's about to come out and everyone's going to be surprised like it gives me super emotional yeah and she didn't even say medically right I think I messed it up even though the echo whatever tells you about the echo in stadiums it's like I was talking to myself the words were
Starting point is 00:19:15 hitting me back in the face and I was like yeah wait why wasn't I warned of I'm so emotional right now. But yeah, so that one was, it was really neat because I think there was just so many moving parts and everything was moving fast. So I felt like that was really. Well, and you never, that one, because you never know if you're going to have that moment again.
Starting point is 00:19:35 I would say, though, also when we came out together and went up against AJ and Page, we finally had gotten an entrance at WrestleMania. So that one felt really cool. And then our first one when we were in the Battle Royal and Kid Rock performed and I'm like, and then you divas are going to come out. Like, I remember that being like, oh, my God, I made it.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Like, that one felt so cool. So made in 25. We were wearing, like, artwork pretty much. Remember we were just so pumped and we were like, wanted it to look like art? And when you think of everyone that was in that ring too at that time, who is that one was really, always remember that one and the after. That was one of the best after parties.
Starting point is 00:20:09 That was literally one of the best after parties. Yeah. And they don't do that anymore. They stopped doing it for a long, long time. Now, you mentioned Paige being a part of WrestleMania with you guys. of course a lot of fans super excited about that. What was that phone call like getting her back into the fold of everything? Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:20:23 I remember like texting her and it was like I was just texting her like fill her out, like see where she's at. And we've always kept in touch. Like she's just one of our closest friends. And she was like, hell yeah, sis. Like you guys need me. I'm there. But you know, obviously you have to go through a process.
Starting point is 00:20:42 But I mean from the moment like we reached out to the end, it was like she was stoke. Like she's, she's wanted, she was kind of like me where we were well wanting to come back for a while, but it seemed like an absolute no and kind of, I think we both hurt. She would make jokes too. Like I haven't gotten the phone call. Yeah, because you guys were texting, but like I wasn't a part of that. And then right before I literally landed in Birmingham to get surgery. But remember, Paul, he was texting me in air and he goes, hey, I really need to talk. talk to you and I was like, oh, well, I don't land. I had just taken off from Newark to like, head to Birmingham. I'm like, I think I'm in air for like three hours. I don't remember
Starting point is 00:21:25 him texting me again. Like, have you landed yet? And I'm like, oh, he has something important to say. But Bree and Paige had been communicating more, like that she was already in Birmingham. And then he called me and he's like, so let me know how you feel like he totally gave me the option of like Paige is available, take your place. And he really teed it up. And I agree, that would be the one person that would make it so meaningful and blah, blah, blah, and all the things. And he's games. Jagridi's like, if you want to say no, I mean, that's up to you. And I was like, no, that is the one person, actually, that would make the moment feel super
Starting point is 00:21:57 iconic. She's like her sister. We have incredible chemistry. And Paige is a massive superstar, like massive superstar. So it was perfect. It was perfect. Yeah. You know it was crazy.
Starting point is 00:22:08 You know when they say, like, sometimes stars align. Paige, when Nikki was flying to Birmingham, Paige was actually there. How weird is that? Getting cleared. Getting cleared. Wow. So it was like, randomly. It was all, you know.
Starting point is 00:22:23 Because I even told her, she's like, well, what are we thinking? I go, well, I don't know. Nikki's on her way to get surgery in Birmingham. She's like, I'm in Birmingham. I'm like, wait, what? So it was like all just, you know what I mean? It was crazy. Not that I want to say it was meant to be because.
Starting point is 00:22:37 What was weird? Because you two were like starting a chat just by yourselves. Yeah. And then all of a sudden. And then Paul, like, calls me with his same thoughts. But they were like, no one has talked. No one talked yet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:48 It was wild. It was, I guess it was meant to be. Meant to be stars aligning. What a, what an interesting story for sure. Speaking of interesting, I mentioned his name earlier, Dan Housen. How hard is it not to break character when he's around? Because I'm sure you've had to shoot so many social media videos over when he walks up and calls you Bella clones. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:23:08 My gosh. Like we naturally, from the first time we did something with them, we have, like, you know, there's just somebody you work with you have, like, great chemistry with. So with him, off the bat, we did. was really funny because of the whole Bella clones thing. But it is, it's hard. Like, but I love it. It's like you have to stay serious and you're just like, and then he's doing this thing and you're like,
Starting point is 00:23:30 yeah. And you kind of have to go with it. It's not like all perfectly planned. No, yeah. You don't know really what he's going to say. You just have an idea what might happen. Yeah. But you never know which way he's going to go.
Starting point is 00:23:41 So you kind of just lean into it. He's so great. He is. He's so talented. And we've, we had so much. We've been having so much fun with him. I mean, the whole pulling the hair and making the... I mean, what can I say?
Starting point is 00:23:52 We, you know, we were part of getting his partner for backlash. Honestly, he needs to, he got the win. It's because he has some, they had some Bella blood in them. I mean, he picked a good hair. Got that DNA, Bella DNA. What a fun time for sure. I mean, every time I see it and he says, Bella clones.
Starting point is 00:24:10 I'm like, I don't see how you cannot laugh every time. It's like the greatest thing ever. He's making me love like, hearing it. I'm like, maybe I should be. And he gives me, like, what I've, like, been missing so much a part of our product is those colorful characters. Um, so he's been, I think, just such a blessing of showing the fans are loving him. And it just shows like, we are missing those kind of characters. Like, Santino was to show up right now. We'd all be like in heaven because he would just bring that moment of laughter.
Starting point is 00:24:43 One liners that would get you. Do you know what I mean? You just laugh about it all week. And you're like, you know, that was, that was really good. Yeah. I love that kind of stuff. Now we just need Bella clones T-shirts and then we'll be fine. Honestly. I mean, we really do. So that'll be our next text. That's a really good idea.
Starting point is 00:24:59 Well, I think, like, Bree needs to show up with, like, clones at one point. Or, like, he does something and it'd be funny if, like, two Bella twins, like, pop out. Yes. But if they, like, there's a lot of fun to be had. But if they kind of just walk by us and we're like, we're like, you just cloned up? Is that? Give them wine bottles and everything. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:25:20 They're like walking my phone, but neither. Exactly. That would be hilarious. Now, the Bella twins are hanging out here with us right now in studio. Now,
