Nikki Bella on Her Ankle Injury & Her Still Being Unsure of Its Severity But Had Initially Thought It Was Broken

As noted before, Nikki Bella has been out of action for WWE since the March 27th WWE SmackDown show in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania due to an ankle injury.

Angie Martinez held a recent interview with WWE Hall of Famers The Bella Twins (Nikki & Brie Bella). One of the topics discussed included Nikki’s thoughts about her ankle injury and her waiting for the MRI results to determine the severity of it.

“No, not at all. I’ve been super bummed out about it, so, as of now, it’s a sprained ankle. We don’t know if it’s a high sprain or something else so, I got an MRI, I’m waiting for the results.

In our match on Friday, so, it was our second tag match back together and it happened right in the beginning of the match and I finished the match. I can’t believe I finished the match and I stressed out my poor sister.”

Brie responded giving her thoughts about how Nikki told her that she had thought her ankle was broken.

Brie Bella – “It’s my second match back in eight years. Like, so much anxiety in her first tag. So she tags me and as I’m about to come in, she goes, ‘Oh, I think I broke my ankle,’ and we’re on live television. I was like, ‘Huh?’ I was like, ‘Do we need to call the match?’”

Nikki Bella – “I thought it possibly could be (broken), because I’ve had a break before and the rush that was going through my calf, and I couldn’t put weight on it, I was like, oh, I think I just broke my ankle and just how it felt, I just knew something was wrong but, I knew this was starting the story to WrestleMania. So in my head, I knew there were girls in the back waiting to run in. I knew there was just a lot of women a part of this match and I didn’t wanna let anyone down. But I still (had) like 10-12 minutes to go, and I was like, ‘My goodness…’ So every time I would tag in, I was like, ‘No, it’s really broken, Brie. It’s broken’ and the girl who we’re beating up is like, ‘Uh, put me in a hold?’ She’s like, ‘Wait, is her ankle broken?’”

Nikki also gave her thoughts about the double suplex spot her and Brie did during their match after she had suffered the injury and how the pain she felt was worse than her neck injury.

“That was probably the worst pain I’ve ever felt, over a broken neck. Putting someone in a double suplex at that point… Because I had no choice but to put weight on it.”
