Tonight our divas open up abou their background. The Bella twins as some have noticed have a problems with the English language. They accept this. Nikki focused on activities over academics. She says that why she sometimes sound a little dumb. Her sister, Brie, uses Nikki as her excuse. Her apparent twin language messed with her grammar growing up. And there was that rumor that having siblings including twins would make the children smarter. Oh, the things that gets debunked today.

The divas can put aside their grammatical issues however to focus on their relationships. It’s hard to maintain a steady relationship on the road. That’s why so many of the divas date guys already in the WWE. Still it’s hard for Brie to build a home in hotel rooms and it’s hard for Trinity to keep her engagement ring on. She constantly takes it off for work but then forgets to put it back on much to the frustration of her fiancée.

Jon wants his fiancée to wear the ring all the time. She tries to explain WWE wants the women to be available. In other words to sell the fantasy to their fans and for someone whose also in the business Jon is either being obtuse or simply looking for an argument.
New to the WWE program Jojo and Eva are practicing at the wrestling camp when Jojo gets injured. Possibly too injured to be promoted anytime soon. After she was body slammed she was dizzy and feeling nauseous.

A couple is about to breakup. Shockingly it’s the Bella twins. Brie finally worked up the courage to tell her sister that she’s moving. The two have been inseparable all their live and so it’s natural that Nikki can’t take her sister’s news well. She calls the plan dumb and automatically assumes the whole was thought up by Brie’s boyfriend Bryan.

It continues to be dumb especially when her sister misses out a meeting for a movie role just so she can pack for her upcoming Arizona trip. Brie does show up but that after the producers ask Nikki if her is usually late. Not the best first impression.

The sisters do so much together that Nikki is only seeing the move as a betrayal. They go for movie together and they work out together. A little something Brie should have remembered as she told Nikki about the trip not long before helping Nikki box.

Jojo career is still up in the air as her boyfriend pays her a visit. The two have been seeing each other for the past 10 months and she thought they would get all romantic for his visit. Aww but no! It looks like he only made the visit to issue an ultimatum. He can’t stay in a relationship with someone constantly on the road. She needs to decide. Eva is going to fight with her to stay. That’s a fact but will it mean much to Jojo?

Relationships are being tested left and right. Trinity and Jon were practicing with her coach when Jon drops her engagement. She doesn’t know why he would air their personal business at work. Although he knew what he was doing because the moment they’re in the car she tries to get her to pinpoint a wedding date.

Bri and Nikki finally have it out. Nikki gets to tell her sister that moving for a dog isn’t smart. Their whole business isn’t in Arizona. So what does Bri expect to happen? Oh that’s right she thinks her sister is going to take care of it all while she pretends a dog is a child. In the end never mind that though. Deep down Nikki is missing her sister and doesn’t want Brie to leave her. Her boyfriend, John, gets her to admit that a while later. Now if only she could repeat it to her sister.

Furthermore Jojo gats her very own advice. From Nattie; a WWE girl. She tells Jojo not throw away her future for a guy. Not when she came this far. Still Jojo wouldn’t want to end up like Trinity. Trinity has been engaged for two years and her boyfriend has grown tired with all the delays. Basically the 25 year old isn’t ready to get married and start having kids. The problem is that translates to Jon, as I don’t want to be fully committed you.

Nikki does apologize to Brie for wigging out and in a strange twist it was Brie’s boyfriend that told her to see things from Nikki’s point of view. This relationship proves to be viable. Sadly it’s the only one.

Trinity’s engagement is collapsing and what do you know; she got a match with him in the ring. She can use the opportunity to beat his team senseless or accept defeat. Maybe he should have openly flirted with Nikki. In a mix team match the men and women are never supposed to have contact. Trinity broke those rules to knock Jon on to the floor. She took her personal business and brought it into the ring. Will she get in trouble?

Her relationship is more complicated than even she knew. Her ex had cheated on her and she used her hurt feelings from then to keep Jon at bay. Ariane convinces her to take a chance on Jon. She did surprise attack him in the ring. Jon truly does love her. All she had to do was say she was sorry and the two were back together as if nothing was ever wrong.
Despite the arguments and head kicks the only relationship that ended tonight was Jojo. Her boyfriend shouldn’t have asked to give up on her dream.

The End!
