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.
