Professional wrestler reportedly experienced a breast implant complications during a match in the ring, stating, "It shifted."
In an unexpected turn of events, WWE star Nikki Bella, real name Stephanie Garcia-Colace, experienced a rare injury during an eight-woman tag team match on the July 28, 2025 episode of WWE Raw. A co-wrestler, Piper Niven, delivered an elbow to Bella's chest, causing her breast implant to dislocate and become lodged against her rib cage [1][2][4].
Bella described the injury as extremely painful, with sharp sensations even triggered by simple acts like coughing or laughing. Despite the discomfort, she chose to finish the match, not wanting to let her team down [2][5]. Following the incident, she sought medical attention to have the implant examined and confirmed that it had indeed moved from its original position [1][3].
This injury is an uncommon occurrence in professional wrestling. Bella shared her thoughts on the situation, stating that her implant is indeed stuck in her ribs. She also mentioned that its appearance will need to be good for future action in the ring [1][6].
The injury sustained by Bella occurred during the Royal Rumble event at the Lucas Oil Stadium on February 1, 2025. This incident added to Bella's history of health challenges experienced during her wrestling career [1].
Bella, who was previously married to Artem Chigvinstev in 2022 and later divorced due to a felony domestic violence charge against him in 2024, has shown resilience in the face of adversity. Her previous engagement to John Cena for nearly a year before calling off their wedding is also well-known [7][8].
Despite the injury, Bella expressed her intention to return to professional wrestling after recovery. She even made a surprise return to the ring at this year's Women's Royal Rumble in February [9]. The media attention garnered by this incident was significant, with coverage on Foxnews.com [10].
