WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella went through a legal battle and agreed to a divorce with Artem Chigvintsev in November 2024, and the legal matter was recently settled. The former Divas Champion has now addressed speculations about her life following the divorce. Last year, the two filed for a divorce, and the separation was eventually granted and led to the joint custody of their son, Matteo. Recently, TMZ reported what Nikki Bella has to pay Chigvintsev, as well as their son's monthly child support amount, which shocked fans.
After discovering the amount and Bella's duties, one fan hypothesized that there is more to the story, and abuse might have been one of the contributing causes. This led to speculation becoming rampant, and many imagined Artem Chigvintsev was awarded exclusive custody. Nikki Bella has now addressed these shocking speculations on X and cleared up any concerns regarding her recent divorce.
WWE launched LFG earlier this year, where several prospects got to work under legends like Bubba Ray Dudley, Mickie James, The Undertaker, and Booker T to learn how to become a WWE star. Several of these prospects spent weeks trying to prove themselves until they were just two men and two women left. This past week, LFG's season finale saw Tyra Mae Steele and Jasper Troy win and earn themselves an NXT contract. On NXT, Ava was backstage with Robert Stone and Stevie Turner. The NXT General Manager was not happy with the developments between Ethan Page and Ricky Saints. Just then, Tyra Mae Steele and Jasper Troy walked into the room. The Rock's daughter told them that they would debut on the black-and-silver brand over the next few weeks. She asked them for their signed contracts, which they handed to her. | WWE's recent wave of talent releases caught everyone off guard except for one man. A three-time United States Champion, Booker T shared his thoughts on the annual budget cuts. Over a dozen wrestlers across NXT and the main roster were shown the door earlier this month. During a recent episode of the Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T explained why he wasn't surprised by the recent mass releases. |
FROM THE RUMOR MILL
Damian Priest has worked through his lengthy rivalry with McIntyre while very banged up, according to PWInsider. The 42-year-old shows no signs of slowing down, and the grueling work has actually earned him significant internal praise.
Sources report that Priest is receiving high marks internally for his resilience and his impressive work ethic, among other robust qualities. It was noted that some within WWE have marveled at the New York City native's toughness. Priest has worked 13 matches in 2025 so far. It remains to be seen if he will miss any significant period of in-ring action while he heals up and rests for World Wrestling Entertainment's busy latter part of the year.
