In an equally rare interview, the WWE star opened up about how much she missed wrestling while pregnant. Lynch told FOX: “Because I was pregnant I wasn’t one of those women who was like oh this is so nice, I get to sit back. I love working and that’s why it was painful for me to be away for so long being off the ring, it was really painful.
Nikki Bella, on the other hand, was ready to retire from her WWE career before becoming a mother. She explained during a 2019 episode of Total Bellas, “I just feel like I’m too old for that trip. That journey was really tough. So I realized I was like, ‘Why am I still doing this?’” Bella added, “I’m really ready to hang up the sweater. Like, I can totally say it. A year later, she welcomed her first child – a son named Matteo.
