The Bella Twins were a professional wrestling tag team formed of twin sisters: Brie Bella and Nikki Bella (born November 21, 1983 in San Diego, California). They are best known for their work with WWE, where they both won the WWE Divas Championship. On April 30, 2012, their contracts with WWE expired and they left.
They returned to WWE on March 11, 2013 and became part of the main cast of the reality show Total Divas made by WWE.[3] They also got their own spin-off series, Total Bellas,[4] and were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2021.[5] They left WWE again in 2023, retired from wrestling and now appear as the Garcia Twins.[6]
