Nikki Garcia on her “Ciao Bella” WWE pitch for Clash in
Italy (5:18- 7:45)
Nikki Garcia: Well, I mean, I at first thought I was going
to be at Clash in Italy, not obviously performing but I
pitched this incredible idea called Ciao Bella and I was
like, “Hey guys, I would love to do this whether it’s pre-
show like when we used to do those fun promo commercial
things for PLE or just make it social.” I had where I titled
it “Ciao Bella” because obviously Bella and being in Italy
and Brie and I, half Italian, but where I’d have these
different moments with WWE superstars. So like there would
be a moment where I’m on like the Italian scooter with
Danhausen and his scarf is like flying in my face and then
it cuts to like having a moment with Brie and Paige and
having Aperol Spritz with the tag team champions and then
I’d be on a gondola ride with Gunther and like he’s just
staring straight being Gunther and I’m like looking around
like totally Emily in Paris like what’s happening? This is
what gave me the idea of like Emily in Rome, like me totally
being like an Emily with WWE superstars and then the
gondolier is like, you know, another WWE superstar that’s
either giving me the looks or he’s someone that, you know,
hates Gunther. And then I have this other moment where Oba
and I are getting Gelato and trying to attempt a selfie with
him. And obviously the height difference, but then Judgement
Day comes and slaps our gelato out of our hands. How dare
they? And I had all these fun little segment ideas with all
these WWE superstars that were very Italian and fun and gave
you the Emily and Paris vibes because obviously you’ll watch
Clash in Italy. It’s Netflix International. So I thought,
“Oh my gosh, this would be all so fun.”
Brie Garcia: It’s a historic I hate saying historical, but
it’s the first time ever there’s been a PLE in Italy,
Nikki Garcia: Right? And they showed interest. Like I was
going back with the team and they really like the idea, oh
this was my ending segment. Then I’m walking down the street
and they keep going “ciao bella, ciao bella” because they do
that in Italy, right? And then I take a pause and I go, “Oh
my god, I’m like so famous here.” But obviously it’s because
they call everyone Bella, but I think it’s oh because I’m
Nikki Bella. So it was cute and they all loved it but then
fell through.
