Brianna Monique Danielson (nee Garcia-Colace) and Stephanie Nicole Garcia-Colace (born on November 21, 1983) are better known as WWE Divas Brie and Nikki Bella, commonly known as The Bella Twins. They are best known for their use of "Twin Magic," in which they switch places to fool their opponents. Each Bella has held the WWE Divas' Championship, Brie once and Nikki twice. In addition to their WWE careers, they are notable for starring in Total Divas.Brie took an extended break from wrestling in 2016 to start a family with her husband, Bryan Danielson, while Nikki got engaged to John Cena before they split up in April 2018. As of 2019, both twins have retired from wrestling.That Other Wiki has a rundown of their career. | |

The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry: While their personalities are similar and most of the time they get along, Total Divas reveals that Brie and Nikki lean towards the Smart Sister and the Pretty Sister, respectively, and the differences in their views can cause friction between them. | |

Senseless Sacrifice | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_1dacdb4f | comment |
Senseless Sacrifice: Non-fatal variation. Brie opted to quit her job at the WWE so that Stephanie McMahon wouldn't be able to use Brie's job as leverage to strong-arm Daniel into giving up his hard-won WWE World Heavyweight Championship to keep his wife employed. Unfortunately, Stephanie and Triple H just decided to officially strip Daniel of the title anyway, making Brie's sacrifice pointless. Worse, Stephanie turned to exacting revenge on Nikki, who was still employed by WWE, by putting her in unfair matches. | |

Alpha Bitch | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_22a27b19 | comment |
Alpha Bitches: Since turning heel in early 2011, they began acting like prima donnas. They also guard their presumed status "heads of the divas division" jealously, especially Nikki. Their antagonism toward anyone almost always comes back to fear of losing this supposed spot to someone else, be they NXT rookies, the current Divas's Champion, or a Wrestling Monster like Kharma | |

Aborted Arc | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: When they first split up and feuded with each other, they made up for no reason just in time for the 25 Diva battle royal and were then traded to Raw - with no mention of their feud. Again when Nikki turned heel on NXT, Brie was annoyed with Nikki's heelish ways but nothing really came of it (though Nikki did grudgingly shake AJ's hand after teaming with her, so one could count that as an official face turn). The storyline between themselves and Daniel Bryan was ordered to be ended by the network, for fear it was heading in a non-PG direction. Thus Gail Kim was retconned into being Bryan's girlfriend of six months. Their feud with her never had much of a resolution and was completely dropped when Brie became Divas' Champion. The angle involving Nikki's betrayal of Brie in 2014 never got a payoff. What most people expected to happen was that after Brie's thirty days as Nikki's personal assistant were up (a stipulation in a match Brie lost) that Brie would turn on Nikki and either branch off on her own or go after Nikki's Divas' Title. Neither one happened. Even during their 2014 feud, there was a segment where Nikki demanded that she wanted the Bella name, suggesting that they were going to have a match to determine who got to keep control of the Bella brand. This was completely forgotten afterwards. | |

Fire-Forged Friends | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_2493b31d | comment |
Fire-Forged Friends: After A.J. Lee's pipe bombshell promo, the Bellas grudgingly sided with the rest of the Total Divas cast, gradually turning face. By the time Survivor Series came around, they were all united against AJ and her team. If one looks at the latter season 2 episodes of the show, it seems they've become this in real life, too. | |

In a list of top 25 best abs in WWE history out of male and female Superstars, Nikki ranked number 15.

| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_2adc858b | comment |
In the End, You Are on Your Own: Nikki had to wrestle solo, in matches that were increasingly stacked against her, after Brie quit. Stephanie McMahon tried to stir up feelings of resentment and abandonment in Nikki towards Brie in hopes of turning the sisters against each other. For awhile, it looked like it hadn't worked, but then Nikki betrayed and attacked Brie at SummerSlam. | |

| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: More like "Mildly interesting, but very unsafe looking," Nikki's Rack Attack is a pretty nice move, but it doesn't look even remotely painful to the recipient. Nikki on the other hand has received a torn hamstring and bulging discs in her neck that went untreated for most of 2015, eventually requiring career threatening neck surgery in January 2016. She reworked the move with Bryan's help heading into her comeback in the fall, and the final product of Rack Attack 2.0 is now a TKO. | |

Tomboy and Girly Girl: She's the Tomboy to Brie's Girly Girl. Nikki is more athletic than Brie, a lover of video games and also has a higher constitution when it comes to alcohol. Since their face turn, Nikki wears a baseball cap and t-shirt giving her a more casual/tomboyish look and wrestles a more power-based offense. | |

Polar Opposite Twins: As shown on Total Divas. Brie is a vegan and hippie at heart, being very conservative (clothing and lifestyle wise, anyway), and responsible. Nikki meanwhile loves expensive clothes and wines and deserts, being far more impulsive and passionate. Ironically Brie is the harder drinker of the two. In the ring, they have very different move sets as well; Brie opting for a lot of kicks, aerial offence and mat-based grappling. Nikki meanwhile utilises a lot of power moves with only mild high flying. | |

Et Tu, Brute?: Looked to be in complete shock and disbelief by Nikki eliminating her after they worked together to eliminate several other entrants at the 2018 Royal Rumble. Considering her and Nikki's history though, really she should've seen it coming... or maybe she just thought Nikki would wait until they'd already eliminated everyone else before turning on each other. | |

| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_50cc01e1 | comment |
Do Not Call Me "Paul": On Total Divas the name Bella is used as if it's their real last name - whereas other talent gets called by their real names. That being said, Bryan did use Brie's real last name when he proposed to her. John Cena likewise referred to Nikki as 'Stephanie Nicole' when he proposed - the first time Nikki had ever had her true first name acknowledged. In their book, it was clarified that her parents wanted to name her after two of their babysitters but didn't like how 'Nicole Stephanie' sounded - so they just named her 'Stephanie Nicole' and always called her Nicole anyway. | |

Identical Twin ID Tag | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_613fa807 | comment |
Identical Twin ID Tag: From 2008-2012 you could only tell who was who if their hemline was low enough to reveal Brie's tattoo or if they spoke, since Brie has a deeper voice than Nikki. note This isn't entirely true. The Twins never looked exactly alike as there are subtle differences between their facial structures that a very good eye could spot such as Nikki having a square jawline, a thinner, more pronounced chin and thinner lips with Brie having smaller eyes, a slightly larger nose, a warmer smile and a higher brow but this is mostly only noticeable in stills, not on TV. They actually took steps to avoid this as for a while Brie had bangs but wore hair extensions on TV to match her sister. Since leaving WWE in 2012, Nikki got a boob job, which makes telling them apart a bit easier since their return in 2013. Since turning face, they've abandoned Twin Magic altogether and wear different attires when wrestling. Nikki typically wears a t-shirt and baseball cap. They've even developed slightly different wrestling styles, Brie with a more aerial offence and Nikki with more power. Now they look less like twins and more like sisters, if that makes sense. When the twins attempted to use the switch again in 2015, it was remarkably obvious that they were wearing different outfits. Nikki says that when they were first called up to TV, she had a broken nose and black eyes - requiring lots of ice and make-up to help her match Brie. Additionally she would have a monitor under the ring to make sure that if Brie's outfit got altered in any way during the match (say if the flower in her hair came out) that she would have to make hers match. | |

Heel–Face Turn: A.J. Lee's promo on the Total Divas cast gradually turned the Bellas and Eva Marie face as they united with Natalya, JoJo, and The Funkadactyls. Brie's engagement with Daniel Bryan was then acknowledged on screen, solidifying the turn. | |

Game-Breaking Injury | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_6381b11 | comment |
Game-Breaking Injury: Her neck, twice. The original version of the Rack Attack involved dropping on her knees with the full weight of another person on her shoulders. This gradually caused an injury in a manner similar to Hulk Hogan and Stone Cold's spinal issues from their finishers. In the build up to Wrestlemania 33, she mistimed a spear on Tyler Breeze and hit him head first, jamming her neck again. After Wrestlemania she didn't wrestle again until the Royal Rumble. | |

You Go, Girl!: A meta example: Brie's feud with Stephanie McMahon was treated with a degree of focus and prominence you would expect of a feud between high-tier Superstars instead of Divas. It was even the main story of the 07/28/2014 edition of RAW, with Brie's confrontation with Stephanie—including Stephanie agreeing to a SummerSlam match with Brie—closing out the show! Again, this amount of attention is almost never given to Diva feuds. | |

Big Brother Instinct | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_69681e01 | comment |
Big Brother Instinct: Brie has protected Nikki from unnecessary conflict several times: The most notable instance was Nikki's match against Tamina Snuka on November 11, 2013. Nikki received a headbutt from A.J. Lee while resting on a rope, Brie immediately attacked AJ, but was slammed into the side of the ring. Nikki is left unable to defend herself and loses the match, AJ skips around the ring to then get drop kicked in the face by Brie, AJ rolls out of the ring, and Tamina lifts Brie onto her shoulder, but Brie slips out of it and drop kicks Tamina in the face and falls out of the ring. Brie then rushes to Nikki, who is still on the floor, and stands by her protectively.◊ Brie actually threw AJ Lee off Nikki when they — the twins themselves — were feuding. Averted one time Brie left Nikki to get attacked by Kharma. Nikki forgave Brie because she admitted she would have done the exact same thing. | |

Color-Coded for Your Convenience: From around Mid-2014, Brie favored red outfits (much like her husband), while Nikki wore black and has blonde streaks. Ever since they both turned heel in 2014, they often wear the same colored outfits. When they debuted in WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010 Brie wore blue while Nikki wore red. In SVR 2011, Nikki wore a silver top with dark blue jeans while Brie wore a black top with green jeans. | |

Thicker Than Water: Generally is quite devoted and forgiving towards her twin, even when Nikki really doesn't deserve it. It turns into a case of Extreme Doormat with the resolution of their 2014 feud, where Nikki betrayed her, heaped verbal abuse on her, and then abused her power over Brie when Brie was forced to be her assistant... only for Brie to forgive Nikki offscreen because they are sisters and serve as her loyal Dragon and Beta Bitch for the next two years. | |

| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: When The Authority couldn't touch her after she quit, they began dishing out Revenge by Proxy on the still-hired Nikki. Mostly reversed when Brie filed criminal charges against Stephanie McMahon for assaulting her at a match which Brie had been attending as a fan to show support for Nikki, then forced Stephanie to agree to stop targeting Nikki and to re-hire Brie (as well as having a match against Brie at SummerSlam so that Brie can get a little revenge) in exchange for the charges being dropped. Brie still couldn't save Daniel's championship, but probably the only reason she didn't demand that Stephanie give Daniel another title shot is that he was still recovering from injuries. | |

Humiliation Conga: Rare instance where the hero gets one, and it's a doozy. After months of harassment from her boss Stephanie, Brie finally gets a match with her, only to get knocked out and pinned because her sister turned on her, with Stephanie gloating over a defeated Brie. If that wasn't bad enough, Nikki disowned her, beat Brie down multiple times, and eventually won a match where Brie had to be Nikki's personal assistant for a month. Not a great couple months! | |

Took a Level in Badass: Initially presented as someone who could only get underdog wins or cheating via switching with Brie - as well as having a meagre six-day title reign. She ended up becoming the top heel of the women's division, adding a lot of power moves to her arsenal and even throwing forearms capable of knocking people out. She ended up the longest reigning Divas' Champion, was the first main roster woman to take Charlotte Flair to her limit and competed in Falls Count Anywhere and No DQ matches. | |

Paige has become a big enemy and was later joined by Becky Lynch and Charlotte, with Naomi, Sasha Banks, and Tamina Snuka getting in the mix, to dethrone the Bellas (aided by Alicia Fox) from the top of the Divas division and take Nikki's second Divas Championship (which Charlotte eventually did). | |

Token Wholesome: The twins admitted this in their 2012 Shoot Interview. They said that when they first appeared in WWE, they tried very hard to preserve PG. Nikki says "we were like the G girls", saying that they didn't want to alienate their kid fans. Their attire back then was considerably more modest - their tops concealed all cleavage and underboob while their pants had lots of ruffles. They became Hotter and Sexier after their heel turn - even wrestling in catsuits for a time. | |

| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_a7850fbf | comment |
Only Known by Their Nickname: Brie and Nikki Bella's real names are Brianna Monique and Stephanie Nicole Garcia-Colace, but they're called by their ring-names even on the reality show Total Divas. To be fair, Total Divas also treats several other wrestlers' ring-names as their real names (probably in attempt to avoid confusing the viewers who don't know the wrestlers's real names), "Brie" and "Nikki" are shorthands for Brianna and Nicole respectively. | |

Face–Heel Turn | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_af3ea0e3 | comment |
Face–Heel Turn: Nikki turned heel again on August 17, 2014 at SummerSlam when she came to the ring for Brie's match against Stephanie, leading the audience to assume that she was there to help Brie against Stephanie and Triple H. She ended up attacking Brie instead, then walked away and let Stephanie win the match. While she seemed not without remorse at the time, the promos after took a much darker uglier turn. | |

Revenge by Proxy | |
| Bella Twins (Wrestling) / int_b77eb3b2 | comment |
Revenge by Proxy: After Brie foiled Stephanie McMahon's Evil Plan and, worst of all, slapped her, Stephanie turned her wrath upon poor Nikki since she couldn't go after Brie herself (as Brie had quit). She punished Nikki by putting her in matches that were nigh-impossible for Nikki to win, including the first-ever four-on-one Divas's match in the WWE, with Nikki inevitably losing and getting beaten down by the other Divas. It was strongly implied that Stephanie was doing this to break Nikki's spirit and make her quit, too. | |

Irony | |

Irony: Nikki dubbed herself 'Fearless Nikki' while she was getting persecuted by Stephanie. This led to her eventually giving in and siding with The Authority. Nikki won the WWE Divas Championship twice. The first time, she had it for six days in what is the second-shortest Divas Championship reign in the company's history, beat only by Jillian Hall's four-minute reign. The second time Nikki was champion, she went on to hold it for 301 days, breaking A.J. Lee's 295 day record for longest-reigning Divas Champion. Talk about a turnaround! And right before she lost her first title to Layla, she'd even cut a promo saying she'd be the longest reigning champion in history. | |

And again at WrestleMania 30; they initially worked together in the Vickie Guerrero Invitational match, but eventually turned on each other. And again when Nikki apparently bought into Stephanie's words about Brie having abandoned her and stolen the spotlight from her, and attacked Brie at SummerSlam. | |

Evil Twin: Nikki plays this role whenever the sisters are pit against each other. First in 2009 briefly, then on NXT season 3, and in 2014. The last case showed how obvious this is, as the Bellas had ended their first run in WWE and started their second run back as heels, but as soon as the twins turned back face with the cast of Total Divas, fans were already speculating when Nikki would turn heel on Brie — and never the other way around. Sure enough… Subverted when Nikki finally got to be the "good" twin in 2011 when she was on Team Teddy going into WrestleMania 28 with Brie on Team Johnny. Also at WrestleMania 30 it was Brie who attacked Nikki first, having realized that they were opponents in a Divas Championship match. | |
