Nikki Bella is having a terrible time shaking Carmella off at the moment. Defeating her at No Mercy wasn’t enough, and the Princess of Staten Island refused to drop the issue. They switched things up with an in ring segment last week, but this week saw the feud revert to type, with Carmella ambushing Nikki shortly after her solid match with Natalya.
Nikki defeated Nattie and will now captain SmackDown’s women’s team at Survivor Series, but she didn’t look like much of a winner when it was all said and done. Carmella didn’t just beat her up: she again used one of her own trademark moves, the Bella Buster, against her. Not for the first time in this feud, Bella was outsmarted by Carmella, who seems hell-bent on destroying Nikki at this point.
Beating Carmella clearly wasn’t enough. Nikki faces a continued uphill battle to shake this monkey off her back, and events like last night aren’t helping her cause. Who knows where, when, and how they’ll finally settle their differences, but with Natalya already ruled out, there’s a strong chance they may be forced to team at Survivor Series.
