Brie Bella On Why She Decided To Retire, If She’ll Stay Retired Forever And More

Brie Bella recently spoke to WWE.com about her decision to retire, if she’ll stay retired forever and more. You can check out the full interview here along with some highlights below.

Wrestling her last match at WrestleMania 32:

Yes. WrestleMania 32 was my last match. I wouldn’t say my last match forever, just my last match that you’ll see in a while. I am here at home because Daniel Bryan and I want to start a family soon. Or I shouldn’t say soon — we want to start it now! We’re going to start having babies, so I have to put my career on hold. It doesn’t mean that I’m going to be gone. I’m going to be an ambassador for WWE. But I’m going to try motherhood.

Her thoughts on the new WWE Women’s Championship:

I think it’s actually funny because when I found out about the Women’s Championship coming, I thought, “Of course. Out of all the nights to retire, I’m retiring this night. Can I take it back?”

What’s really special is that not only will it be a night that, as women, we’ll never forget … the fact that that it was a night for women’s history, the fact that we’re equal to Superstars and men … it’s also the night I retire. So, two very special moments for myself — one being historic and the other one just being special to me. I’ll never forget that.

If she’s going to miss the word “Diva”:

No! Absolutely not. Granted, of course, I have so many memories being a Diva. I guess it will always hold a special part of me. We always called ourselves Divas. I came in through Diva Search. I was a Divas Champion.

I always felt like it had this negative feeling to it because a Diva is so much more high maintenance, and that’s the last thing we women wrestlers are. I’m really happy to see it go, just as I was really sad when I saw the original Women’s Championship go away. It’s amazing to just finally have it. So, yeah, I definitely won’t miss it.
