Nikki Bella Discloses Thumb Injury: “I Have No Feeling Now”

Nikki Bella has been navigating a thumb injury.

During the latest episode of The Nikki & Brie Show, WWE Hall of Famer Nikki Bella disclosed a thumb injury that she has been dealing with.

“I was supposed to get my thumb done and they never did — look at that, it’s just completely out.” Bella continued, “Actually, I have no feeling now. I was literally in a match and there’s this super quick pin and it’s always kind of crazy because — the victory roll — and so, if you’re a bad guy, the good guy jumps on your shoulders and quickly flips through your legs and flips you but puts you in a pin, and if they don’t go quick enough, it’s almost harder and my opponent didn’t do it. But so as we’re going through, my thumb got caught but she still was going through and had me pinned. My thumb was still way back there, and I came back and it was hanging… I went to the doc, like, ‘Hey, my thumb.’ ‘You’ll be fine.’” Bella added, “It is hanging. I never went back.”

Nikki did not share when exactly she suffered the injury. She last wrestled on the 9/11 SmackDown in a singles match against Paige.
