Professional wrestling lovebirds, John Cena and Nikki Bella of the Bella twins have broken up just a year after their engagement and supposed marriage.



Both former champions got engaged in April of last year after a ”Couples Match’ at last year’s Wrestlemania 33 in Orlando, Florida.

The couple was also due to get married on 5 May.


“While this decision was a difficult one, we continue to have a great deal of love and respect for one another,” Nikki Bella said in a statement posted on Twitter.


“We ask that you respect our privacy during this time in our lives.”

The split has come as a shock to many wrestling fans, especially as the pair had been pictured out together just days ago.


Since news of their split, John Cena has posted on Instagram with the caption, “Worst Day Ever”.


He also told fans, “We all have good and bad days. No-one is perfect, but if you happen to do something to make someone feel bad, TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY for your actions, APOLOGIZE, and ASK FORGIVENESS“.


Naturally, wrestling fans haven’t taken the news well.
