Nikki Bella on Naomi Leaving Cast of WWE “Total Divas”

WWE Divas Champion Nikki Bella, along with her sister Brie, recently did an interview with Wetpaint Entertainment to help promote the return of “Total Divas” on the E! Network.

Nikki discussed former cast member Naomi and the gruelling schedule that comes with being a WWE Diva.

“It was sad when Trin left — it sucked because I love her and [husband Jonathan Fatu]. But I think she was just more focused on being a wife on her off days and getting her home life together. Being a Diva is not easy. We are on the road 300 days a year. We don’t get a lot of family or personal time. With Total Divas on top of that, on our days off, we have the cameras following us, and that’s not for everyone. Some people hit the point where they just want free time on their off days and I respect that fully. We’ll miss her and hopefully she’ll be back.”

Naomi was pulled from the cast because WWE felt that there was nothing much more to cover with her marriage to Fatu.

Brie also talked about the two new cast members for the series: Alicia Fox and Paige.

“I’m really excited that Paige and Alicia Fox joined the cast. I know sometimes its hard for the audience when we’re adding people and watching people leave. But I think that Paige is going to bring a lot because she’s young and she’s got a great wrestling background. Alicia Fox is considered a vet. It will be something new.”

Editor’s Note

The show needed some new blood. Naomi was a logical choice to part ways with.
