Nikki Garcia Reacts To Being Omitted By WWE During Barmageddon Promo

Nikki Garcia (formerly Nikki Bella in WWE) recently expressed her disappointment that WWE omitted her name from a recent Barmageddon promo.

In 2021, Nikki was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame alongside her twin sister, Brie Garcia. However, they were given little time for their induction. In January last year, the twins were surprise entrants for that year's Women's Royal Rumble match. This year in March, they announced that their contracts with WWE expired. 

Following her run with WWE, Nikki Garcia was revealed as the host of USA's 'Barmageddon' show alongside Blake Shelton. During a recent episode of Raw, Michael Cole promoted 'Barmageddon.' However, Nikki's name was omitted and only Shelton's name was highlighted. 

During an interview with NBC Chicago, Nikki Garcia responded to WWE not using her name while promoting the show. The 2-time WWE Divas Champion stated:

“It’s sad. Like, there’s obviously a lot of things I could say about that. I think more than anything, it’s disappointing. I worked there for 16 years, and I helped pave the way for them. Not only that they’ve always been family to me, and no matter what, walking away, for me, it wasn’t malicious. I’m at a point in my life. I wanted to do things without hearing the word ‘no,’ and it was just strictly business. Maybe there were some personal things that had happened over the years that also pushed me towards that, but I think more than anything, it’s disappointing because I don’t see it happen with the men.”

“For some reason with the women who are outspoken and we’ve seen this with the women in the past, they just want to ban us,” she adds. “I think it’s sad because we all look at it as family and so, ‘Okay, they don’t want to say my name, that’s fine. Barmageddon got a shout-out and so did Blake Shelton, so that makes me happy. So many people at WWE will always be family to me, and I communicate with so many of them. The WWE Universe will always be family to me, as well as my Bella Army. So I’m just so appreciative for all of you and all of us that can still have the memories.” 

The Twin sisters aren't planning to step foot inside the squared circle, AEW to be specific as of now. We will have to wait and see if they ever get back in the ring.
