WWE Divas Champion Nikki Bella Dealing With Back Injury

WWE Divas Champion Nikki Bella is currently dealing with a back injury and was given the weekend off from WWE live events in order to rehab it. Nikki was in action last Monday on Raw as part of a six woman tag match. It didn't appear like she hurt her back during the match, so it could just be from wear and tear from working on the road so much. On Sunday night, Nikki tweeted about how she wishes that she was at the Teen Choice Awards, but she's been dealing with a back injury. https://twitter.com/BellaTwins/status/633062405212213248 Nikki has been the Divas Champion for 267 long days since she won it at last year's Survivor Series. The all-time record for the Divas Title was 295 days by AJ Lee. If she were to hold it until the Night of Champions PPV on September 20 then she would have the record. Since AJ Lee abruptly retired from WWE this year without much warning, the company likely wants Nikki to break the record and have bragging rights instead of somebody that's no longer there. This Sunday at SummerSlam, Nikki's part of a six woman tag match along with Team Bella teammates Brie and Alicia Fox taking on Team PCB (Paige, Charlotte & Becky Lynch) and Team B.A.D. (Sasha Banks, Naomi & Tamina). It's a three team elimination match, so it doesn't end until two full teams are eliminated from the match.
