The Bella Twins were a women's professional wrestling tag team which performed on WWE and consisted of twin sisters Brie and Nikki Bella.

They are both former WWE's Divas Champions, Nikki held the divas championship for 301 days being the longest reigning Divas Champion in WWE history. In November 2015, Nikki was ranked No. 1 in Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Female 50 in 2015. Brie announced that she was taking an extended break from in-ring action in April 2016, therefore disbanding the tag team.

Born sixteen minutes apart to parents Jon Garcia and Kathy Colace, Brianna and Nicole Garcia were born in San Diego, California and raised on a farm in Scottsdale, Arizona. They are of Mexican and Italian descent. Keen soccer enthusiasts, they both played for Scottsdale clubs from second grade. In third grade, the girls were separated into different classes by their mother to allow for more independence. The twins graduated from Chaparral High School in 2002. They returned to San Diego for college, where Nicole played soccer for Grossmont College, but relocated to Los Angeles a year later, where they worked as waitresses at the Mondrian Hotel while trying to find an agent.

They then started modeling, acting, and doing promotional work. They made their first national TV appearance on the Fox reality show Meet My Folks. Following this appearance, the Garcia twins were hired to be the World Cup Twins for Budweiser and were photographed holding the World Cup trophy. They were contestants in the 2006 "International Body Doubles twins search". They participated in the 2006 WWE Diva Search, but did not make the cut.
