WWE Divas Champion Nikki Bella was originally slated to work a WWE Live Event in San Antonio, Texas on Jan. 18.
According to live reports (via Wrestlezone.com), Nikki was pulled from her match and replaced by her sister Brie.
As you can see below, Nikki’s left leg is heavily taped up.

She apparently got on the microphone prior to the bout and informed the crowd that she was unable to compete due to a strained hamstring.
It’s rumored that she will defend her Divas Championship at WWE “Royal Rumble” on Jan. 25 against either Paige or Natalya.
Editor’s Note
It doesn’t seem to be a major injury. If she drops the title in the near future, I’ll have to change my stance obviously.
