But before we get into the X Games, there is a special little girl who saw me setting up my podcast this morning and was like, mama, can I please interview Dodo? So, before we get into it, Nikki, Birdie Bird.

[Brie Bella]

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Is there a star bigger than the sun? Is there when a star bigger than the sun.

[Brie Bella]

So the sun is a star, right? Yes. So there, I think, are probably some stars bigger than the sun. Or is the sun the biggest star?

There are some stuff and bigger.

[Brie Bella]

That's what I thought.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Do you know which one?

No, Daddy just told me there were some.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Okay, what's your next.

What's your favorite flower?

[Brie Bella]

Oh, that's a good question. So my favorite flower, I really. I've always loved red roses, but in my home, I always like to put white roses everywhere. But then also, what are the flowers called? They're white with the pretty. Like, black and purple in the middle. What are those called? Brie.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Do you believe in fairies?

[Brie Bella]

You know, I do believe in fairies. I think fairies live in the wilderness, and I think they're all around us. Sometimes we can't see them, and sometimes they're that pretty sparkle in the sky.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Bye.

[Brie Bella]

Oh. Bye, Birdie. Thank you so much for the interview. I loved it. You were just the cutest thing in the world. And I was thinking that before Birdie, we bring on our special guest. I say we talk to your mommy about X Games. We just saw her all over ABC LIVE. Roku, ESPN2. Bri, how was it you crushed girl, by the way, when you crushed the fashion thank you. You looked incredible and you did amazing.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Thank you. You know, it's crazy. I got so many DMS and text messages that people saw me, like, you know, know whether they tuned in or, you know, were watching the X Games, whatever it was, but. And I got a lot of great compliments, so that made me feel really good. It was, it was really amazing because I was so nervous doing it and just because there's so many factors and I just, I really wanted to be a great service to these athletes telling their stories, like, not sounding like an idiot. You know, I did so much research going into it, so. But Salema, the fact that I was sitting next to him, I mean, the guy is like literally the soul of action sports. I feel like since 1999, he has told so many amazing stories, really pushed these athletes to the next level just by his storytelling. So I was lucky to have him. And Kristen beat. She helped guide me the whole time, and I just fell in love with her. Aj. I mean, the list goes on of, like, the incredible people I worked with. But Nicole, I was like, almost I said, dilemma. Don't think I'm a groupie. I felt like I was back in my ear.

[Brie Bella]

Love it.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Tony Hawk walking around. Bucky Lassic, Travis.

[Brie Bella]

You gotta do a segment with Travis Pastrana.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

I mean, we had so much and he's, He's.

[Brie Bella]

I told you, he's like the best. I had a tweet or not tweet, Instagram at Simon. Like, hey, AGT extreme. Come on.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

I mean, it was crazy. Right before we did our interview, One of the BMXers got hurt, got knocked out right in front of us. And yeah, it was weird because I, like, my. I started to, like, have these tears. It just because how it all happened. It's just these guys and gals really put their bodies on the line and one bad move and it's. I mean, his. He got a severe concussion, but they said he was lucky not to walk away breaking about six bones.

[Dave Legreca]

Wow.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

I mean, I know I couldn't believe it, but, you know, that's the one thing I really admired about the X Games is every sport. So whether it's motocross, bmx, skateboarding, like, you name it, whatever sport it is, whatever discipline and competition they're in, what they like, the risk taking they do is just incredible.

[Brie Bella]

It is.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

And so the whole time my jaw was dropped. And these athletes, Nicole, they just get younger and younger. I mean, it was crazy to me, but it was a great experience. And I honestly, I. I hope they Bring me back and I hope I do more stuff like that, you know.

[Brie Bella]

I want to join you on the next.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Yeah. Once I got past the nerves, it was so much fun.

[Brie Bella]

Totally. Well, you.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

And I just think too.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah. You get lost in the events, you know.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Yes, that's what it is. It's just seeing these people compete and you know, X Games, the one I was at, that happens once a year. And so even though they're doing all these other competitions and other X Games, the real big one, you know, like it's amazing what they. All the tricks they save for it, everything they do. So it was a time I had a great time.

[Brie Bella]

I love that. Well, you did amazing. You looked amazing. I haven't tuned in on a full summer X Games in a long time. So because I wanted to see you, I just found myself all weekend, you know, sitting and watching the competitions. I really enjoyed the women's skateboarding. They just crushed it. It was fun to watch and it brought, watching brought me back like to the day. I've just, I mean because think I used to go to the winter one. I love the winter one. So it's, it was a lot of fun to watch and see you up there looking all good.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Thank you. Yeah. You know Arista True, who she's like the moment right now and like this is the thing I was saying is like going into X Games, the women weren't the side story, they were the story going in because of what they're doing right now. And it's really incredible. But to watch her at 15 years old, like her tricks were insane and she's the sweet.

[Brie Bella]

They all seem so sweet. They all like cheering for each other and giggling and it was like watching a bunch of birdies up there.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

It's wild. And guess what, they were commenting a lot on how all the girls celebrate each other.

[Brie Bella]

So cute. And they were having so much fun for being a world competition. Like it's their Super Bowl. They were sitting there giggling and cheering each other on. I'm like this is so cute.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

And they all hang out after and literally to me it does show you when women come together, we don't have to compete against each other to win the gold, the silver, the bronze. And they were happy. Like Arista, she going into the weekend, she was actually going to break a record. If she got three golds, she was going to be the most decorated athlete in the history of X Games, beating a lot of big time people, including men of course. And she didn't, she only got one. But I oh, yeah, she still. It didn't break her. And guess what? She was so happy. These other girls who she skates with all the time got the opportunity to get gold. And I will say this, like, it definitely showed me that, you know, it's a lesson to learn that we don't have to compete against each other for success. Like, we all will get it. We all deserve it. Like, if you just all come together, like, you'll make magic happen. That's what those girls are for. Sure.

[Brie Bella]

For sure. Well, I loved it. It was so amazing seeing you in that light of everything. So excited to see more. I'm better be with you next time.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Oh, and girl, I did have a bunch of mom jokes.

[Brie Bella]

Oh, I. I don't doubt that. Of course, you've always had a ton of mom jokes. That's nothing new.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Nikki. Life can get really busy.

[Brie Bella]

Really busy. I mean, I would say it's been busy for all of us.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

I know. And sometimes we just need to take a breather, sit down, and ask ourselves one very important question.

[Brie Bella]

What's that? Brie?

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Have you had your Hershey's?

[Brie Bella]

I sure have had my Hershey's Brie.

[Sam Roberts]

And you know what?

[Brie Bella]

When you need to brighten up your day or even put a smile on your face, grab the classic creamy texture and pure milk chocolate flavor of Hershey's milk chocolate.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Whether you're eating it on the go, breaking off a few pieces for s' mores night, or treating yourself to something sweet, Hershey's milk chocolate checks all the boxes.

[Brie Bella]

It sure does. You wanna know what one of my favorite moments with Hershey's chocolate is? Teo. And I like, I love it. Because you know me, I'm chocolate lover. But now I have a son who's a chocolate lover. So we split bars all the time. It's just such a moment for us, a very happy moment. We look at each other. He always ends up getting chocolate all over his face. But it's just such a sweet moment that I find myself always reaching for a Hershey bar. Always.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

I mean, we love making s' mores in my family. So every time I bust out a Hershey bar, my kids start squirrel screaming with excitement because they know it's about to be s' more time. So for all of you, shop for Hershey's milk chocolate now at a store.

[Brie Bella]

Near you found wherever candy is sold.

[Nikki Bella]

This podcast is brought to you by Kleenex Ultra Soft Tissues. Okay, everyone, summer is coming to an end, which means it's back to school time. But what else does that mean? Oh, the kids coming home with running noses.

[Brie Bella]

I mean, illnesses, colds, all the symptoms right? But hey, Bri, I'm not worried. And I know you're not worried because Kleenex has our back.

[Nikki Bella]

Oh yes it does. It's the beginning of a new school year and also the classroom sniffles and sneezes that come along with it.

[Brie Bella]

So from home to school and back, stock up with Kleenex Ultra soft tissues.

[Nikki Bella]

Start the school year off the right way by preparing for the messes that come with it.

[Brie Bella]

You don't want to be caught without a tissue on hand.

[Nikki Bella]

To help Kleenex Ultra soft tissues are soft and absorbent to stand up against runny noses. To keep you and your family clean and comforted. As a school year starts this back.

[Brie Bella]

And Bri talking all about X Games. And before we bring on our two special guests, I also have an announcement. So as you all saw when I was at Fanatics Fest and in New York, I was actually hosting a show just like Bri for ESPN and ESPN plus. So this is Fanatics Fest All Access, which is an hour long special airing July 7th. So again on ESPN, ESPN Plus. So pretty much me as the host, I take people behind the scenes of this summer's most talked about sports, entertainment and culture event. So everything we did in New York and the little clips that you may have saw on social media, we, we actually were there in it getting all the footage that everyone's going to be dying to see. I mean, I'm talking from Travis Scott's performance to all those top athletes playing in all those different Fanatics Fest games as well as a really cool make a wish moment that will for sure bring tears to your eyes. It was very special, but a lot of incredible moments. So make sure to tune in again July 7th on ESPN and ESPN Plus. Fanatics Fest all Access. Because that's what you get, girl. And it was awesome.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Well, and they ESPN too really got a, a lot of Nikki and Brie.

[Brie Bella]

You know what I mean? Espn, let's talk like we're already taking over. Just kidding. You know what it is, what's fun for you, me, Bri, is you and I were girly tomboys growing up. We've always been obsessed with sports, whether it's action sports or, you know, football, soccer, baseball, whatever it is. And so it's fun that we get to sit here and whether it's Fanatics Fest or X Games. But you and I are in our element where we get to talk wrestling, we get to talk action sports, we get to talk football, soccer, baseball. Then you throw in Make a Wish and kids, and it's everything that you and I love, but everything we were raised around, I mean, all our entire life we were raised around sports. All of our fun parties our parents would throw, everything was always around sports. Boxing match, soccer match, you know, and then on top of it, we dress up as Spice Girls, which brings in the entertainment. So it's a place where you and I have a lot of passion, a lot of fun and you feel it. So yeah, for sure, who knows? But you know what, Bri, I do say it's time that we do bring in our special guests. We are bringing in two of the biggest, boldest voices in pro wrestling radio. From Busted Open to Not Sam Wrestling. And now the brand new Sirius XM channel that is every wrestling fans dream. Pro Wrestling Nation 24. 7. Please welcome Dave Legreca and Sam Roberts. What up, guys? Guys.

[Dave Legreca]

Hello.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

How are you guys?

[Brie Bella]

It's nice to see you on our show, by the way, finally.

[Sam Roberts]

It's nice to be had, it's nice to be seen here. This is, this is amazing.

[Dave Legreca]

Yeah, big day, big day.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Nothing like the Bellas to like help celebrate it.

[Brie Bella]

Do you know what I mean? So you guys have to tell us everything about Sirius XM's Pro Wrestling Nation 24. 7. Why it's the perfect time to launch this, which everyone, launch day is today and what channel it's on.

[Dave Legreca]

All right, it's Channel one. You mind if I go first, Sam?

[Sam Roberts]

I mean, look, no, I do not mind at all.

[Dave Legreca]

It's channel 156. It's Pro Wrestling Nation 24. 7 and Sam knows this story. Busted Open has been on the air for 16 years. It started one day a week for an hour. And the audience grew with this newfound love for pro wrestling over the last 16 years. So it just developed from one show one day a week for one hour to now its own channel. And I think we put together the best team of analysts and personalities in pro wrestling. With Sam Roberts is one. And our launch date, July 1st. And we're super excited about this. This is a, a big day, it's a big event and it's a dream come true. So I appreciate you having us on.

[Sam Roberts]

And I've, I've got to say, Dave, like, is not, I don't think giving himself quite enough credit. Like, Dave started this Pro wrestling radio show 16 years ago. But, I mean, you guys know, put, you know, what was going on in wrestling years ago. There was not this mainstream acceptance. There was not like to, to. To convince Sirius that there should be two hours of pro wrestling talk, one hour of pro wrestling talk a week was. Was nuts. And they let Dave do it as like a hobby. And they didn't. They just. They didn't see it at all. And nobody saw it except for us that were wrestling fans. And we're like, yeah, we're here. We're trying to consume wrestling content. And, and watching this show that Dave built slowly but surely become this juggernaut that went from an hour once a week to two hours to twice a week, to five days a week, to seven days a week, to the mornings, to, you've got, you know, some of the biggest names in wrestling now being hosts on the show. To Dave being able to build that platform into something that Sirius finally looked at and said, yeah, we can do a whole channel of this. Not just because the skill is there, but because the appetite has been built for. It has been for me just to watch. Kind of a remarkable thing to see this platform grow. And I told Dave into something that was beyond. The first step is Dave can make a living talking about wrestling, which is really special, but then this other level of Dave can make it so that the rest of us can also make a living talking about wrestling is. Is massive.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

You know, I agree with you, Sam. And like, okay, someone who's been in it for a while, you know, you'll have some people report on pro wrestling, but there's a lot of people out there I never trusted. Always trusted Dave when he reported pro wrestling. Like, and even you, Sam, always, like, you guys reliable sources. It was like, nice to hear your feedback, your thoughts. And so I'm really excited for you. And you're right, there is an appetite. And how lucky are we in such an era where there's so much pro wrestling? I mean, it's great opportunity for pro wrestlers, but also fans. Like, we have so much content weekly that I'm excited for this station and.

[Dave Legreca]

I, and I want to appreciate and thank you, Sam, for all the kind words, but let's put that aside. The only reason why I did this was so that my wife wouldn't give me shit for watching wrestling every night. Basically, that's the only reason why I did this whole thing, so I could watch wrestling, wrestling in peace. And I have to get any aggravation from my wife Violeta. So that's pretty much It.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah, right. I know. I feel like that's a lot of us in our passion jobs, it's like to make excuses like when we became wine producers, I'm like, now no one can give a for drinking wine all the time because, hey, it's a part of our business now.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

You know, I mean it keeps going is us.

[Brie Bella]

But I did like Sam, you gave me so much chills on what you said. And Dave, you're always so humble, which I love. But I do want to ask like one. It seems like this has maybe always been like the dream vision for you to get to a place where it's 24. 7 non stop wrestling. But what can wrestling fans, fanatics, all of the above expect from your guys's new station?

[Dave Legreca]

Well, I mean, Sam's right. You got credible analysts like Sam, Jonathan Coachman, myself, you know, Jonathan Hood, Justin Labar. People that are pro wrestling fans respect pro wrestling. They know there's a line you don't cross and there's a respect, there's a respect factor there. But all of the people who are on the air are fans at heart, so they love and have a passion for pro wrestling. Then on the other side, you have some of the best pro wrestlers of all time. You got, you know, Bully Ray, Bubba Ray Dudley, two time hall of famer, Mark Henry, Tommy Dreamer, Nick Nemeth, you know, some of the biggest names, Matt Cardona, Thunder Rosa, like Natalia. As you guys know, you, you helped make the announcement at our WrestleMania party. Bishop Dyer, like, these are some of the best wrestlers out there. But even more than that, and Sam has a talent of doing this as well. What I wanted and what I wanted from day one and what I continue want to happen with the team that we have is, is I want it to be more than just pro wrestling talk. I want the fans to know who these people are outside of the ring as well. One of the great things about radio and podcasting is, you know, just like you guys, it's not just about what you do on the business side. They get to know you as people and they get to relate to you and wow, they're just like me with maybe with the interest with music or TV or movies. And that's what I want to present with Busted Open. And I feel like the nation, our fans feel a connection like they feel like we're friends and family, which is the best thing I could think of.

[Brie Bella]

I love that because I, I feel like, especially in a time as now, like I feel like stories back in the day used to be Very personal. And we kind of got to know people through those stories, but they're not so much like that anymore. It's very focused on the wrestling, which is amazing. So I think it's so important that you guys have that kind of space on your show where we can really get to know some of these new wrestlers, this new era even more. Like I want to know the journey. Like we had Stephanie on the show and I never even knew her full story. Actually a lot of people didn't who tuned in. They were like, I didn't know she had to do all that before she got to where she's at. So I think it's really cool that you're gonna dive more into the journey and the stories of these pro wrestlers inside of the ring and from all the territories, which is really cool.

[Dave Legreca]

Yeah, I'm super excited about it.

[Sam Roberts]

I also, I also think like the great thing about pro wrestling and the way we take it in is that it's interpretive. Like everybody takes it in differently. Everybody has this different point of view. Everybody has, to your point, like different things that they love about it. Do they want to sit there and talk about like this great match with these great moves that they saw for half an hour. Do they want to sit there and micro analyze a promo or a storyline? Like there's different things that hit different people and in different ways. And I think that's kind of the fun of having a whole channel where you've now got, you know, the same thing being covered by multiple people. But everybody's got such a unique and different perspective that you kind of want to take it all in.

[Brie Bella]

Totally.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

I love that. I just hosted, co hosted the X Games this past weekend. And you know, in a way, I mean what they do is wild, but I think pro wrestlers are wild. But it was fun for me to. We had our analysts, they come from a very technical part. You know, Salema, who's been there since 1999, comes from a part with the Legends and his. The history and all that. And then I came from a part of like watching as a live and as a fan and as an athlete with experience. But it was so fun to hear from everyone and get more depth into an athlete that was competing just by everyone's opinions and views. And I really feel like it helped the viewer get such a huge picture of this person competing. So. So I love it. I love what you guys do. It definitely helps, you know, the wrestler become bigger their brand for sure.

[Dave Legreca]

Well, let's face it, like what Sam says On the air. And I was listening to Sam today. Half of what came out of Sam's mouth, I completely disagree with. And then after Sam, Jonathan Coachman was on, and everything Jonathan Coachman said, I didn't agree with. But that's. But that's what's beautiful about it, is that we all respect one another. We're all on the same team, but we don't have to agree. I love the fact that we're going to disagree and we're going to look at wrestling in a completely different way. And I think that's what's exciting about it. Like, Sam thinks I'm a psycho. Sam on numerous occasion, that I'm psychotic because he's nuts.

[Sam Roberts]

I mean, he goes into these weird, like, zones where he's just so emotional about what's going on that, like, I'm like, you gotta. You gotta calm down. You know, I don't. You're not even making sense anymore. Like. And. But. But to your point, Dave, you're right. Like, doing Busted open. Like, I would sit there and I'd listen to Dave just go on these rants about Goldberg, and I'm like, he's not even making any sense. These things that he's not even saying, things that are true. And so now I'm chomping at the bit to get on the air to be like, dave is a psychopath. Let me try to bring you back into some kind of sanity.

[Brie Bella]

Oh, yeah, I love it. He. Sam, he's invested. He's invested.

[Dave Legreca]

It's good.

[Sam Roberts]

But he's wrong.

[Dave Legreca]

No, no, I'm not wrong. What I say is true. No, you just don't want to accept it.

[Nikki Bella]

Hey, everyone, if you've been listening to the show the past few weeks, you've all heard us talking about the Airbnb Original Experience we hosted at our speakeasy tasting room. Bonita. Bonita. And let me tell you, we had so much fun.

[Brie Bella]

Oh, my goodness. So much fun. So, okay, we all were at, as Bri said, the Bonita Bonita tasting room. Speak Easy. And it was so fun because everyone who was a part of the Airbnb Original Experience group started in a private tasting room with Bri and I. Well, of course, we greeted everyone with some champagne, but. But it was really fun because we all sat into the tasting together and we just chatted. We tasted Bonita Bonita. And then, of course, our next special treat that made it so original and such a fun experience was Bri and I recorded an episode of the Nikki and Bri show live for all of them, which if you haven't seen on YouTube, you can see it on YouTube. So literally, Bri and I are just doing a normal episode, but we have them set up beautifully right in front of us. And of course, course, we kept the bonita, bonita pouring. And you know what I really love about it is if you go listen or watch that episode, you get to hear all the laughs and you just realize, like, how interactive it is. And it was just so much fun. I. It felt like a live show, for one. I agree. But it was just such a great time to connect with people.

[Brie Bella]

But, well. But before I let you guys go, I am super.

[Dave Legreca]

Wait, it's only been 10 minutes. You're gonna let us go already? I. I thought we were gonna be at least an hour. I told you.

[Brie Bella]

I mean, hey, I'll go that long. I thought you guys only could do 15 minutes.

[Dave Legreca]

Whoever told you that? You guys know David? Sam, you got.

[Sam Roberts]

No, no, no, no. You guys are the. You're the Bellas. Sam Roberts and Dave legreco are on your timetable, not the other way around.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

No, but you know what?

[Brie Bella]

Sam? Sam, you're gonna love to hear this, because when I was at Fanatics and we were doing the entrances, I can't remember what woman came up to me, but she goes, damn, that Sam Roberts had a glow up.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Oh, yeah.

[Brie Bella]

And I go, I know. I almost didn't even recognize him. And you were. Talked about this whole massive glow up backstage. Sam, I just wanted to let you know.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

You taking that.

[Sam Roberts]

My God. Well, look, I mean, you know, I, I, the nature helped me a little bit with my hair, but once I. Once it was gone, it was meant to be, I suppose. That's fantastic news.

[Dave Legreca]

I guess you don't know who it was, though.

[Sam Roberts]

You don't remember who it was?

[Brie Bella]

I don't. I need to think because I'm like, was it a rep or was it one of the wrestlers? I. I need to. I need to remember who, but it was a woman for sure.

[Sam Roberts]

That rules.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Wow.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Sam Roberts]

That's great. I've never. I've never heard that before in my life, so. That's very good to hear.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Oh, good.

[Brie Bella]

No, Yeah. I was like. I. I was dying. I'm like, I have to tell Sam about this because, Sam, do you miss your hair?

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Because your hair was iconic.

[Sam Roberts]

It. It was iconic, but I felt very strongly that it had served its purpose. I was actually very, very comfortable letting it go. I was ready to move on from it. And, you know, and I. I actually like that there are now people like you guys that have known me for a long time that maybe picture me like that, but anybody. I mean, if you've only gotten to know me in the last, whatever few years, you don't. You have no idea who that weirdo with the afro is, you know?

[Brie Bella]

Right. And that's all I could think about. That's, like, why I was like, oh, my gosh. You just only knew you with your hair. Like, that was your. I conic.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Part of you.

[Brie Bella]

It was with a red lip or a snapback. That was your thing.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Okay, so can I go back to Evolution real quick?

[Brie Bella]

Oh, gosh, here we go.

[Dave Legreca]

Oh, I'm glad, because I. I thought you're going to talk. Start talking about how I look like Sally Jesse Raphael. I'm glad that we're going.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Have you gotten that before?

[Sam Roberts]

That's a very topical reference, Dave. That's very. A lot of people.

[Dave Legreca]

I am 54, Sam, so someone must.

[Brie Bella]

Have told you that. Did someone tell you that?

[Dave Legreca]

Yes, somebody did tell me that. It happened to be, you know, WWE hall of Famer Edge, Adam Copeland said that I look like Sally Jesse Raphael, and it stopped.

[Brie Bella]

I mean, I'll admit, like, if you guys were to say you're brother and sister, I could kind of now see it, but for sure.

[Dave Legreca]

Can we talk about Evolution?

[Brie Bella]

Yeah, Bri, what is it about Evolution? I'll let you vent a little bit more.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

No, I'm not gonna vent, but I'm just curious to know, like, what are you two hoping that you see at Evolution? Is there any matches? Is there any type of, like, flow you're hoping to see? Anyone that you're hoping comes back? I don't know. Surprises?

[Sam Roberts]

I Like, that we're at a place where evolution can now. Like, I really like the, the Rhea Ripley EO sky scenario. Like, I love the idea that evolution can also be about establishing truly the top star in the women's division. Right. That it is this kind of celebration. And I'm sure we'll see, like, faces in the battle royal and, and people popping up. But also the fact that, like, the women's division has gotten so incredibly deep and the fact that NXT is getting involved as well, and they just brought in Julia and Stephanie Vacair. Like, I'm hoping that this time it's a, it's a, it's like a larger celebration of how far the current division has come with some of the, some of the legends coming back to be like, yeah, like, we, we laid the foundation. But, but look at how far you ladies have taken it, for sure.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

I mean, that's what I feel. I feel like here you guys have this incredible division, I mean, between raw, smackdown and like you said, nxt, so you can fill a whole pay per view up with all these women that are working, you know, week in, week out. And so, and I, you know, for me, I wanted to see a little crossover action like, that could have been fun with this pay per view. Like, not everyone stick to where they were drafted.

[Brie Bella]

So you're gonna get that in the Tag Team Championship. You're gonna get a tag team for me.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Yeah. And maybe we'll get more for sure, but I agree with you.

[Dave Legreca]

Sam, can we get some Natalia on Evolution, please? I mean, I think Natalia is doing some of the best work of her career. And I, I would love, I would love to see her a part of. I mean, not as much as seeing Jon Moxley lose the AEW World Championship, but I am, I would love to see. I would love to see Natalia part of evolution.

[Brie Bella]

I agree she's a part of it. I mean, she's one of those who has still stuck around, didn't go have babies, didn't take a break, didn't retire and come back. She's still been present. And I agree with you, she's doing some of her best work outside of the WWE ring right now. Like, that Natty character is so badass and amazing. And so she and I talk a lot and I'm like, we better get now.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

We better get nanny soon, honestly. But that would have been fun, like, to seen her in action like that.

[Brie Bella]

Hey, Bri, we still got a TV to tell stories.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Yeah, you're right.

[Sam Roberts]

TVs three, TVs by two smackdowns in a raw.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Sam Roberts]

So who knows? Who knows? The NXT is getting involved too.

[Brie Bella]

Exactly.

[Sam Roberts]

Now we got so many TVs and.

[Brie Bella]

I feel like nowadays we have social media. We could still tell story there. You never know. We have a lot of outlets to choose from.

[Dave Legreca]

That's right. Was this on a. Was this on a memo that you guys got or something like.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah, a memo. What having you on or what are you. Evolution.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

You can tell Nikki's back in. In it, right? She's been, you know.

[Brie Bella]

Okay.

[Dave Legreca]

Corporate speak.

[Brie Bella]

You guys. I gotta sell tickets. I. Even though I've been absent, I still have the weight on my shoulders.

[Dave Legreca]

I'm excited. I'm excited for it. I'm excited.

[Brie Bella]

It's. You know what?

[Dave Legreca]

This is out of love. Because I'm excited.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Dave Legreca]

I'm saying this comes from a good place in my heart always.

[Sam Roberts]

That's the other thing. That's the other. No, no, no. It's not always. That's the other thing Dave does. He goes on, he'll spend like half an hour trashing something and then he'll go. By the way, I do that because I love it. Anyway, we'll be back after this.

[Dave Legreca]

No, wait a second. Everything's okay. I never say back after this. I always. I never say. I always preview what's gonna happen Next. That's number one. And number two, like, it's usually about 25 minutes, not 30 minutes and. No, but it's. It's just being critical. Critical because you care.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Dave Legreca]

It's not come, like, it's not coming from a bad place.

[Brie Bella]

Right. Which is why you have now the 247 news. Because it's coming. It's passion, it's love, it's caring. You know, before we're going to have you guys do our affirmation or inspiration affirmation, what we close the show with. But before we get to that, I have one last question for you guys. I would be curious to get, like, what your perception is on, like, how wrestling's really become so pop culture in some ways and like your feelings on that.

[Sam Roberts]

I love it. I. I've been an advocate for. I'm not. I'm like, more eyes, the better. Like, more partnerships, the better. More. I like when celebrities come in. I like when a spotlight is put on wrestling and I like that. I feel like the difference between, like. Right. People talk about wrestling being relevant and that. That pop culture connection.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Sam Roberts]

That it has again. And I think people compare it to the attitude era a lot because that's the last time it was this connected to pop culture. But I think the difference is that in the attitude era, I think wrestling was maybe more connected into mainstream pop culture than. I mean, it was the total.

[Brie Bella]

I agree with you.

[Sam Roberts]

Everything. I think now for the first time, it's finally getting like mainstream credibility. Like, it's finally getting to this point where you could theoretically see Emmy Awards going. Hey, maybe we should be looking at this wrestling show that's been doing everything that you're. You're having wrestlers doing shows that are like more mainstream shows. And it's not like a goofy that they have a wrestler on or they're not having them do like a move or they don't have to wear their gear or whatever it is. It's like wrestlers, I feel like because of that crossover that's going on are finally being treated more. There's still more to do, but they're finally being treated more by the industry as serious entertainers.

[Dave Legreca]

Sam said something on his show this afternoon that really floored me and it's so true at fanatics. You saw Tom Brady doing the wrestling entrance and he did it to Cody Rhodes. Not to. What's the guy, the yellow trunk guy with the foam yellow finger. What's his name?

[Sam Roberts]

Hulk Hogan.

[Dave Legreca]

Hulk. It wasn't Hulk Hogan or the NWO or. It was Cody Rhodes.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Right.

[Dave Legreca]

That. And I love what Cody's doing. I'm. As Sam knows, I'm a huge Cody Rhodes fan. Like, you don't need the returning legends anymore. They have done, especially in the wwe, they have done a great job with their current roster to focus on the talent right now as opposed to, you know, 30, 35, 40 years ago. I. I love it. And I think this Pro Wrestling Nation 24 7, that tells you how popular that this, that SiriusXM is dedicating an entire channel to pro wrestling talk.

[Brie Bella]

I agree with you. I. I couldn't agree with you more. And I'm excited because I think we're all going to be sharing somewhat at the same stage at SummerSlam at a fun tailgate. So we're gonna have some fun there.

[Dave Legreca]

But is that where I get my free bottle of wine?

[Brie Bella]

You know it. You and the wife, we're gonna get you guys a lot of wine because it'll be there. The wine's gonna be there. So we will get you a lot of wine. Maybe some body slams. We'll see what pairs nicely Hours, like.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Really talk about everything we've been seeing in the last month.

[Brie Bella]

Okay, look, don't get her into Brie mode. I mean, unless the mics are off. Maybe.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Someone say hi really quick. Come here. Say hi. She's done. She keeps, like, saying, you wanna.

Hi.

[Dave Legreca]

Hello. How are you?

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Good.

[Dave Legreca]

How are you enjoying your summer so far?

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Really good. It's really good.

[Dave Legreca]

Awesome. Awesome. Good for you.

So I think it would be fun for everyone to hear from you guys, like, what's your motto? You live by your favorite quote. Like, hit us with it.

[Dave Legreca]

I have it, Sam. If I can go first. Real.

[Sam Roberts]

Please go first.

[Dave Legreca]

I have it right here on the wall. My studio. It says, be so good, they can't ignore you.

[Brie Bella]

I love that one. That's a good one. And hey, we haven't been able to ignore you for 16 years, so, hey, that works. I love that.

[Dave Legreca]

Neither could the Rock, by the way. But that's a story for another day.

[Sam Roberts]

By the way, this is why I call him a psychopath. He Rock left one comment on his Instagram. He hasn't stopped talking about it for months. If I was.

[Dave Legreca]

That's not. That's not true. That's not true.

[Sam Roberts]

Dangerous.

[Dave Legreca]

He made two. He made two. He did a video last year when he tried to get Cody Rhodes out of the main event at WrestleMania 40, and then he did it coming out of WrestleMania 40.

[Brie Bella]

You know what, Dave?

[Dave Legreca]

I'm in his head.

[Brie Bella]

Dave, I feel you. Because when Selena Gomez left a comment on my Instagram page, I still, like, am obsessed with that. The fact that I was like, she just acknowledged me. This is amazing. So I feel you.

[Dave Legreca]

You should Be. You guys should be acknowledged. What you've done is incredible.

[Brie Bella]

Oh, thank you.

[Dave Legreca]

I don't know who Selena Gomez is, but. But I'm sure she's somebody that's very nice and she should be acknowledging you.

[Brie Bella]

Thank you. You're so sweet. All right, Sam, what's yours?

[Sam Roberts]

It's not that, like, romantic of a quote, but like, when. When I was growing up, my dad was working for an advertising agency and this in the company put out their new branding. And the branding, their quote was just the work, the work, the work. And I looked at it and I was like, well, what? I looked at my dad, I was like, what does this even mean? I don't understand. The work, the work, the work. He said, that's all there is. That's what it's. That's what it's all about. Just do the work. And for some reason that stuck with me like nothing else has. It's just everything is just the work, the work, the work. And it's just. That's how you get better at it. That's how you get recognized. That's. That's why you do it. You know, the reason you do it is not because you want to pat on the back. It's not because you want adulation. It's not because you're trying to. It's the work is the reason that you're doing it.

[Brie Bella]

Right?

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Yeah.

[Sam Roberts]

Do the work.

[Brie Bella]

Mind, body, soul. I completely agree. It's sometimes, especially in certain generations, they wait for handouts. And it's not about that. It's all about the work. People will be like, oh, I want to be where you're at. Well, it's taken me almost 20 years to get here. It's non stop work, no days off, and you just grind.

[Sam Roberts]

And by the way, like, and that. But that is the reward, right? Like, the fact that it wasn't handed to you, the fact that you did all that work is why you can sit there now and, like, kind of take pride in the fact that you did the work.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Dave Legreca]

Nikki and Bri, can I ask you a question before you let us go?

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Dave Legreca]

I'm very, very interested. Because, you know, pro wrestling has a stigma about it and you guys have been able, both of you so to do so much outside the world of wrestling. Was it difficult for you, like, when you left the wwe, was it a problem for you outside of wrestling where that people looked at you as like, oh, you came from wrestling, so did they look at you a little bit differently because of that?

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Oh, yes. For Sure. I mean.

[Brie Bella]

Well, no, it big time. Like, even when we were really crossing over, like during the Total Divas and Bella's days. But it was crazy how, like, certain stylists wouldn't dress us because they were like, oh, they're pro wrestlers. Or there was certain brands that wouldn't lend us clothes because they were like, well, we don't dress pro wrestlers. And we really had to fight hard in that world to show them that there was so much more to female pro wrestlers, that we weren't just what they saw in the ring. We were so much more than that, and we brought so much more. And so it was crazy because Bri and I had that really big fight outside of it, and sometimes we'll stay still, fight on that. It's still hard for mainstream brands to think, oh, they are worldwide. They do have these incredible fan bases. It's really crazy. And they'll sometimes invest in people that are only known in the US and they bring something to the table, but not what us WWE Superstars bring to the table.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

You know, it used to drive me crazy is they would be like that, but then they would realize, like, pro wrestlers, their charisma and how loud we were. So. But they're like, in a segment then would want us to, like, body slam someone or do a suplex. Like, so can you go into this segment and like, suplex the who? You remember the guy on the Today show when they were like, after your interview, can you, like, do give him a suplex? And we're like, on the floor. But, like, it would be so funny how it would be about pro wrestlers. But then they always wanted you to do moves on everyone in mainstream. It was like, right one minute, you know.

[Brie Bella]

Well, you know, we fought, I think, to our generations, and I think they're now coming around to it. But a lot of brands kind of use, like, we love strong women and women empowerment. But you realize they were just using it as marketing. They really didn't actually want strong, empowering women. They just wanted to dress some people up like it and pretend they were it. But when it came to actually using the girls that were that, it was like, oh, wait, wait. We really don't want them to be like, that strong or this or that. So it's tough. I feel like at times it still is, but we've come so far. And that's why when you look at the Bella army, we're so diverse in who our fan base is because of the E audience, because of just all our different audiences that come Together, they're not just pro wrestling fans. They're inspired in different ways because especially through the reality shows, we showed them, like, how women can kick ass. We could go do a sports sport that's dominated by males. Then we could go be moms. We could go be career women. We could be great wives, great girlfriends, whatever it may be, we can handle it all. And so women who weren't even like, like pro wrestling, they started to get attached to that. Like, wait, I could kick ass and all my other things in life and still be this.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

And so for sure, it's awesome.

[Dave Legreca]

I, I didn't really realize it until I had a daughter. Like, what you have to go through and how different the world is through a woman's eyes. And you don't realize it until you live in it. And it makes you really change the perspective. So I just want to thank you both because you have mentored and inspired so many people that you need to get your flowers.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

So I appreciate both of you very much.

[Brie Bella]

That means a lot. It's.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

You have no idea.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah, it's why we love what we've always done. It's because we've always thought not only of, like, our women, but our youth, just because we know what they're going to have to fight through. And it's not just, you know, the girls. There's boys and especially our gay following. You know, we, we know what they go through. And so it's always been very important for us to stand for all of them and just help them. Like, hey, what you're going through, we've gone through. This is how we overcame. So you can do the same or learn from our mistakes. Don't do what we did do, you know, over, you know, overcome certain things. So that's why our memoir was important too. But thank you. That means so much. You have no idea.

[Dave Legreca]

Now this has been fun. Thank you so much.

[Brie Bella]

I get. And you guys, I want, hopefully soon there'll be stuff to talk about with me. So I need to come on busted open to talk with you guys about stuff.

[Dave Legreca]

Please. You are welcome anytime.

[Brie Bella]

I would love it. And I mean, shoot, if you want Bree Mode disgruntled Brie over there, you.

[Birdie Jo Danielson]

Know, bring her on honest.

[Dave Legreca]

You know, she doesn't go by a script, you know, a corporate, you know, at all.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Dave Legreca]

Coming right from the heart, from her heart, from her head. So I love that. I love that. But no, you guys, I, I, I joke. We, we're. This is all awesome. The fact that we get to talk pro wrestling but you guys are family, so.

[Brie Bella]

Yeah.

[Dave Legreca]

Open door anytime.

[Brie Bella]

Perfect. I love that. Thank you. And we'll see you guys in New York. We're all going to be together for sure.

[Dave Legreca]

Wait, hold on a second. We're not gonna see you in New York?

[Sam Roberts]

Wow.

[Dave Legreca]

We're gonna see you in New Jersey. Don't get me started.

[Brie Bella]

Jersey. So we'll see you in Jersey.

[Sam Roberts]

New York's fine.

[Dave Legreca]

It's fine.

[Brie Bella]

MetLife.

[Sam Roberts]

Everybody knows it's New York.

[Dave Legreca]

It's fine. It's not New York. It's New Jersey.

[Brie Bella]

You know we'll blame the Giants, right? Yeah, we're gonna blame the Giants for that. It's their fault, you know. Those damn Giants. Just kidding.

[Dave Legreca]

Come back.

[Brie Bella]

And also, guys, so before we let you go again, please let our listeners know where we can catch you and all that fun.

[Dave Legreca]

All right, it's Pro Wrestling Nation 24.7on Channel 156 on SiriusXM 24.7Pro Wrestling Talk. And Sam has his show. Not Sam Wrestling Live. It's live. So he's taking phone calls. And we're super excited to be a part of not just Sirius xm, but the pro wrestling community. So thank you.

It's a. It's a programming block that Dave and I, well, we fantasy booked it for like probably 10 years at this point. But every morning from 9 to noon, you'll get to hear Busted Open and then from noon to 2, not Sam Wrestling Live right after.

[Brie Bella]

Nice.

[Dave Legreca]

And I gotta tell you, Sam, even though he wasn't a part of Busted Open, he was a part of Busted Open. He has been a supporter, as he said, for well over a decade. So I'm so glad that he's a part of what we're doing. And, and this is excellent. This is exciting. We can't wait.

[Brie Bella]

Oh, yay. Well, we are very excited for you guys. And everyone make sure to go check them out. Also look for videos on the Nicki and Brie Show. Ignore page, Tik Tok, Facebook. And the Nicki Marie show is also on Sirius XM Stars 109. And again, make sure go get your pro Wrestling on Pro Wrestling 24. 7. See you all next time.
