Nikki Bella reveals brutal breast implant injury sustained on ‘Monday Night Raw'
During Friday's installment of 'The Nikki & Brie Show' podcast, Brie Bella asked her twin sister, 'Is your implant OK?' and Nikki recalled spending her time off in New York City 'getting my boobs looked at' due to the injury.
'We were just out [in the ring] there talking I was just like, 'Oh my god, I'm having so much fun. I didn't want the match to end,'' Bella said. 'I was in a little bit of pain, but I didn't want it to end.'
That's when Brie asked, 'I mean, [is] your implant okay? I think it's stuck in your ribs.'
Nikki, 41, agreed, adding that she had to see a doctor after the match.
Nikki Bella said her breast implant was dislocated in a match with Piper Niven on WWE's 'Monday Night Raw' last week.

'I think it is [stuck in my ribs],' Nikki replied with a laugh. '… I just was telling Brie, like, having conversations [with the doctor] with my shirt off, and I'm thinking in my head, like, 'I didn't think I'd be here today, on my day off in New York City, getting my boobs looked at, knowing that I think my implant has moved.''
Nikki confirmed that her implant moved after she took a hard elbow from Niven off the top rope, which caused some discomfort in her body.

'It's been hard to laugh and cough, but it's OK. We're going to get it fixed one day,' Nikki said.
'I told the doctor, '[I'm] newly divorced, so the minute the boots are hung up, I'm coming back to you and were going to make these girls look real good. Because these girls are going to get some action in the future and that can't look like that.'
Brie, 41, added she did notice 'a little bit of a physical difference' in Nikki's chest.
'By the way, you guys, it's not that bad of a difference. They still look hot,' Nikki said, adding that she showed her sister.
'I was like, 'Oh, it reminds me of breastfeeding, like when one gets bigger than the other,'' Brie joked.
Nikki and 'Dancing With the Stars' alum Artem Chigvintsev settled their divorce in November 2024.
She filed for divorce that September after Chigvintsev was arrested on accusations of corporal injury to a spouse.
They welcomed their son, Matteo Artemovich Chigvintsev, in July 2020, and married in August 2022.

Howard Stern's show may be ending. Now's the time to put it out of its misery
Just pull the plug already. It's time. In fact, it's past time. The body is barely breathing. Yes, 'The Howard Stern Show' on SiriusXM is reportedly limping toward its final destination. The former shock jock's $500 million contract, which he signed in 2020, is up in the fall; according to the US Sun, there's a good chance he'll be offered less money than he wants to renew. While there's no official confirmation the show will end, it should go the way of Stephen Colbert's farce of a late-night show. 6 In October 2024, Howard Stern interviewed presidential hopeful Kamala Harris and took 'Saturday Night Live' to task for making a few jokes at her expense. @sternshow/X This isn't dancing on the grave of someone's career. It's merely acknowledging reality: Stern, 71, was paid all that 'scarole to be edgy, relevant and interesting — something he hasn't been in years. Certainly not since he enlisted in the cult of woo-woo therapization and disavowed so much of his best work, including pulling bawdy confessions from image-conscious bold-facers. No more jokes about masturbating to Aunt Jemima. No more feuds with celebs like Chevy Chase and Kathie Lee Gifford. No more release-valve humor during some of our country's darkest events. Or the inclination to be raw and unfiltered. 6 Howard Stern as his alter ego Fartman, at the 1992 MTV Video Music Awards. Getty Images Once a swashbuckling, norms-shattering FCC antagonist, Stern has morphed into everything he formerly railed against. When it comes to celebrities, he can't fawn over them enough now. Stern's a first-class, A-list 'Ass Smoochio,' a nickname he gave Arsenio Hall back in the day. Last summer, Stern — overestimating his own influence — made things even worse by entering the presidential media circus to sit down with a clearly diminished Joe Biden. 6 Howard Stern with Madonna and his sidekick Robin Quivers. Kevin Mazur The old Stern would have spent 30 minutes at least on the gaffe-prone president's mythical neighborhood gang leader and overall 'bad dude' Corn Pop. Instead, he marveled over Scranton Joe's high-school football exploits. He called Biden's family — which consists of a crackhead son he later pardoned and a grandchild he didn't acknowledge until the New York Times bullied him into it — 'extraordinary.' Stern even offered this profundity: 'You're the kind of leader I love … we're lucky to have you in the Oval Office.' Fartman would never. 6 Howard Stern and his second wife, Beth Ostrosky Stern, at a North Shore Animal League event. Getty Images Not only did the fawning interview make Biden look like a doddering old man, it made Stern look positively impotent. Stern sank even lower when he interviewed Biden's replacement, Kamala Harris. 'When I met you out in the hall, I said, 'I'm really nervous because I want this to go well for you,'' Stern said. He then whined about 'Saturday Night Live' parodying Harris. 'I hate it. I don't want you being made fun of,' Stern told her. 'There's too much at stake. I believe the entire future of this country right now … it's literally on the line.' 6 Shock jock Stern with co-host Robin Quivers in 1995. Getty Images Imagine that. A man who built an empire off of mocking powerful people thought that the potential president of the United States shouldn't have to suffer a few jokes at her expense — something that actually works to humanize a candidate. To call it malpractice would be kind. Meanwhile, Stern's loyal audience, who dutifully renewed their Sirius subscriptions, are fair game for his wrath. 6 Howard Stern helped SiriusXM become the powerhouse that it is today. Getty Images Locking himself away in a two-year Covid quarantine, he derided listeners for daring to go outside and live their lives, calling them 'stupid' for not sharing his ideology. 'I hate the people who vote for [Trump],' he said last September. 'I think they're stupid. I do. I'll be honest with you, I have no respect for you.' SiriusXM essentially built its initial subscriber base on the back of the one-time 'King of all Media,' who in 2006 left terrestrial radio and the constraints of the FCC. That deal was reportedly worth $100 million a year and made him a very wealthy man. Nearly 20 years on, the once-mighty monarch looks like a minor jester. Meanwhile, the media and entertainment landscape has been radically reshaped by an over-abundance of podcasts. There are a gazillion hosts doing what Stern once did — and many doing it much better. It's time for the retirement tour.

HBCU Dad shines at WWE SummerSlam event
The spotlight hit MetLife Stadium. The beat dropped. And with over 70,000 fans watching, WWE Women's World Champion Naomi, real name Trinity LaShawn Fatu, made her way to the ring at SummerSlam Night 2-escorted not by pyrotechnics or dancers, but by her own father, ripping live guitar riffs to her entrance theme. It was an unforgettable moment. And yes, there's an HBCU connection at the heart of it all. Before she stepped into the ring to defend her title against IYO SKY and Rhea Ripley, Naomi walked proudly to the sound of her father, Shawn McCray, playing her theme song live. The moment was epic, but for McCray-known professionally as Derek Mack-it was more than just a performance. It was the culmination of decades of musical mastery, built from the ground up, stage by stage, tour by tour… and campus by campus. A WWE Moment Rooted in Musical Legacy Shawn McCray didn't just show up for the moment-he helped build it. A lifelong musician and leader of South Florida's acclaimed Derek Mack Band, McCray is known for his high-energy performances across genres like R&B, classic rock, contemporary jazz, and blues. He's shared stages with legends like The Commodores, BB King, and Cameo, and served as a music director at Disney World's Buena Vista Palace Resort. But long before SummerSlam or stadium tours, McCray's musical journey began in his grandmother's Pentecostal church in West Palm Beach, Florida. He picked up guitar at age 6 and later studied music theory at the Chauncey Westbrook Guitar School. His first bands played at birthday parties and school shows-small stages with big dreams. The HBCU That Helped Shape the Sound And here's where the HBCU piece fits in: according to his LinkedIn profile, McCray is a proud graduate of Bethune-Cookman University, one of the most historic HBCUs in the country. While studying business administration at the Daytona Beach campus, he formed his second band, Sporty, which quickly became a sensation on campus and in local clubs. That experience-collaborating, performing, grinding-would shape the rest of his career. Through the years, McCray has remained rooted in community, often bridging entertainment and education. He even taught high school music while touring, always giving back the same energy that fueled his own journey. A Family Entrance for the Ages At SummerSlam, that journey came full circle. As Naomi walked the aisle to defend her WWE Women's World Championship, it was her father's guitar that signaled strength, legacy, and love. It wasn't just showmanship-it was soul. And for fans who recognized the man behind the music, it was a subtle but powerful tribute to HBCU excellence on one of the world's biggest stages. In an industry that thrives on spectacle, this entrance stood out for its simplicity and depth: a daughter walking into battle, and a father playing her there-grounded in rhythm, culture, and a legacy built by hand.

Paul Heyman reveals how Seth Rollins, Brock Lesnar stunners came together for WWE SummerSlam
Seth Rollins' infamous knee injury was a storyline all along, Paul Heyman confirmed Wednesday to Uncrowned. During an in-studio appearance on "The Ariel Helwani Show,' the WWE Hall of Famer and current on-screen manager of Rollins lifted the lid on the much-discussed angle, which led to one of the major twists at this past weekend's WWE SummerSlam event. The WWE audience had originally been led to believe Rollins suffered a legitimate knee injury during his match with LA Knight back at Saturday Night's Main Event on July 12 — a development that led to Knight picking up a seemingly unexpected victory. However, Heyman said Wednesday that Rollins was never hurt at all. He noted that the entire thing had been set up for storyline purposes — part of what he referred to as a 'power grab' executed by Rollins in order to get his hands on the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. 'We had a situation where every time Seth Rollins was getting himself in a position where he could go for the championship, CM Punk kept interfering,' said Heyman, providing the in-character justification for the angle. 'At that point, he needs a Plan B to get the title. 'So Plan B was to get the Money in the Bank briefcase and get out of the way. Out of sight, out of mind. That way, Punk never sees it coming. And it just so happened that CM Punk ended up in the title match at SummerSlam, which was a happy coincidence on our part.' Heyman also discussed the shock return of Brock Lesnar, who returned to WWE programming this past Sunday — following a two-year absence — to launch an attack on John Cena at the end of SummerSlam. When asked how long the comeback had been in the works for, Heyman said he found out about it two weeks before the event — though conceded that he only heard about the return after the terms had been agreed between Lesnar and the WWE. 'I was tagged in to it after the deal was done,' he said. Asked about some of the criticism around Lesnar's return — particularly from those who point out that Lesnar is named in the ongoing sex trafficking lawsuit filed against Vince McMahon by former WWE employee Janel Grant — Heyman defended the WWE's decision to bring back its former Universal Champion. 'If you were in MetLife Stadium on Sunday, you would understand how much that return meant to our audience," Heyman said. "They were shocked to see Brock Lesnar come out and see him F-5 John Cena. No one was saying, 'Oh God, they brought back Brock.' People were going nuts to see him. That's our paying audience and they're happy to see him. 'Very few people ever make it to the top in life without either making mistakes or having skeletons in their closet. Obviously, the decision was made that it's time to bring back Brock Lesnar. If there are critics of it, they should get over it. He's here and he's going to be here, and they ain't going to be able to cancel him.' Heyman argued that Lesnar, a former heavyweight UFC champion, became even more important following the WWE's merger — in September 2023 — with the UFC as part of the TKO group. 'Who do you have who has walked that path in both WWE and UFC at such a high level? There's only two people that's ever been a champion in UFC and in WWE and meant something, and that's Brock Lesnar and Ronda Rousey," Heyman said. "Now I love Ronda to death, but Brock did it longer than Ronda over multiple decades, and look at what he's meant to WWE too.' As someone with input into creative decisions within WWE, Heyman also defended the controversial John Cena heel turn, which came to an end at this past weekend's SummerSlam. The storyline had attracted some criticism for being unconvincing and for the disappearance of The Rock, who had previously been a pivotal figure in the storyline. 'I thought [Cena] delivered," Heyman said. "I thought he took it as far as he could possibly take it. He even took it places I didn't think he was going to. And he put his heart and soul and his passion into it.' As for the absence of The Rock, Heyman replied that, 'I don't know what happened with Dwayne. That's something you should have him come and answer for himself.'
