Nikki Bella said, “John was a big part of that. He really helped me be that fearless side and showed me a part of that world that I never saw before.” She further stated that breakups did not mean that people could no longer thank the people who have helped them. She said, “I think just because you have breakups or whatever it may be, doesn’t mean you can’t thank those people and just truly be so grateful for the help that they had.”

Nikki Bella was forced to retire in 2019, due to her neck injuries and other health issues.
