The Garcia Twins were not aligned with WWE.
Speaking to PEOPLE, Nikki & Brie discussed their WWE exit.
“We got to a point where we just didn’t feel energetically aligned anymore with the WWE,” Brie said.
“There was a moment where her and I looked at each other and kind of felt, ‘You know what? We’re all not seeing eye to eye any more,’” Nikki says. “We didn’t even have to say it, we could just look at each other and feel it. We get sad at times to not be a part of what the women are doing over there, and we will always support our women of the WWE, but it’s been amazing to be in meetings or have these opportunities and be able to say ‘yes’ or ‘no’ for yourself, and not to have to go and ask, ‘Hey, we really want to do this opportunity, can we?’ We’re in this place of reclaiming our power and making our own decisions and not having to ask permission. It’s crazy to feel that at 39.”
Nikki and Brie Garcia
We will have to wait and see if Nikki will be cleared to compete in the future, but Brie has been teasing another run in the ring for quite some time.
Brie Garcia has not wrestled since the 2022 Women’s Royal Rumble match, and has been focused on raising her and Bryan Danielson’s kids. However, they are getting older now and with that, Brie has now addressed that she is not completely finished competing in the squared circle.
