Carmella Reveals She Got Injured At The 2021 Royal Rumble Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Apr 29, 2021
During a recent interview with The Bellas Podcast, Carmella reflected on her match with Sasha Banks from the Royal Rumble and revealed that she suffered an injury during the match. For people that don’t work here, it’s hard to explain. Because of course, I’m grateful I have a job. I’m grateful that I’m working for this amazing company. Last summer, I was off TV for four or five months, twiddling my thumbs. There was no rhyme or reason for why I was at home. I was just told we’re going to wait to bring you back and do a different story. Then, I kind of revamped my character a little bit. Which is cool, it’s nice to get a new coat of paint.

Bret Hart Comments On Triple H Not Liking Ken Shamrock Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Apr 29, 2021
On a recent episode of the 81 Podcast, Bret Hart revealed that he believes that Triple H didn t like Ken Shamrock during The Attitude Era and stabbed him in the back a lot.
