January 1, Wrestling Icons BETRAY Legendary Partner After Crushing Loss

Wyatt’s Take

• The Bellas turned on Paige in a shocking post-match attack after losing to Fatal Influence at SummerSlam, proving loyalty means nothing in today’s WWE
• Nikki Bella blindsided Paige with a brutal clothesline while Brie stood by and watched — a complete betrayal after months of partnership
• Fatal Influence is dominating the women’s division while former allies crumble under the pressure of defeat

Fatal Influence scored a massive victory in a six-woman tag team match against Nikki Bella, Brie Bella and Paige at SummerSlam on Saturday night. But the real shock came after the bell stopped ringing.

Jacy Jayne nailed Paige with her signature Rolling Encore and got the pin for the win. Jayne, Fallon Henley and Lainey Reid celebrated their dominant performance as they headed back up the ramp at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

Meanwhile, Paige and the Bellas were left standing in the ring, soaking in what was left of the crowd’s applause after a tough loss. That’s when things went sideways.

Paige turned around just in time to catch a vicious clothesline from Nikki Bella. The attack was relentless — Nikki unleashed all her frustration on her former partner, laying her out cold. Brie Bella stood there watching, clutching her shoulder, doing absolutely nothing to stop the beatdown.

The Bellas walked up the ramp together, leaving Paige flat on her back in the middle of the ring.

“Oh you f—-d up,” Paige posted on X after the show ended.

The betrayal stings even more considering Paige’s recent history with the Bellas. She made her big WWE return at WrestleMania 42, stepping in for an injured Nikki Bella to fight for the women’s tag team championship. Paige and Brie won the match and held those titles for weeks before losing them to Reid and Henley at Saturday Night’s Main Event.

That WrestleMania moment — full of celebration and new beginnings — now feels like ancient history.

As for Fatal Influence, they’re proving to be one of the most dangerous factions on SmackDown and in WWE overall. Reid and Henley already have championship gold, and it’s only a matter of time before Jayne gets her shot at a singles title.

Why It Matters

This is what happens when pride and ego take over. The Bellas couldn’t handle losing, so they turned on someone who had their backs when it mattered most. It’s a reminder that in the ring and in life, character is tested when things don’t go your way. Paige stood tall — the Bellas showed their true colors.
