Total Bellas 9/20: Who’s Your Mama?

On tonight’s episode of Total Bellas, Nikki and Brie bicker about parties, J.J. and Lauren talk therapy and is the custody of Winston in jeopardy?

Nikki and Natalya end their feud on SmackDown Live and Nikki is excited to see what her next storyline might be.

John and Nikki arrive at Bryan and Brie’s house.  They give him the tour, Brie feels a little embarrassed by how small it is. Bryan says he is a little worried about going to WrestleMania because he doesn’t want to miss the birth of their baby.

Brie and Bryan go to Babies R Us and start their registry. Brie puts on a big video baby monitor system, Bryan does not want her to add it because of how expensive it is.

Brie wants to throw Nikki a Women Empowerment party. Brie wants to celebrate all of Nikki’s accomplishments and have it as a thank you to Nikki for all that she has been doing for Brie. Brie tells their mom and J.J. about wanting to throw the party. Then J.J., Kathy and Nikki all go to dinner and J.J. tells Nikki about the party and spins it to be a “sorry you will never have kids, here’s to being a cool auntie” party. That is not how Brie meant it to sound, so of course Nikki is pissed.

Brie goes to Lauren and J.J.’s house and tells Lauren that the family knows they are separated. Lauren thought that they weren’t going to tell either of their families or friends so she feels stupid. Brie tells her to just try and push for J.J. to go to therapy with her.

Bryan gets upset at Brie because some of the baby registry gifts have come and he sees the expensive video monitor system that someone had bought them, even though he told Brie not to put it on the list. Brie feels that she needs to get rid of it.

John and Nikki go to lunch and Nikki tells John about the party Brie is trying to throw her. He tells her to confront Brie.

Nikki talks with Brie and Brie says that she does want to throw her a party because who knows if she will ever get to throw Nikki a bachelorette or baby shower. This irks Nikki and she takes Winston the dog home with her.

Brie calls her mom and finds out that Nikki left Winston with their mom while she went to the Kid’s Choice Awards with John. This pisses off Brie because Winston’s home is with them while she is on the road and out of town, so why would Nikki take him just to leave him at their mom’s. Brie and Bryan are both visibly upset that Nikki did that. Brie and Bryan go to get Winston and take him back home.

Bryan tells Brie that he doesn’t know why they needed so much on the registry. Brie says that his anxiety makes the registry stuff un-fun for her. Bryan says he just doesn’t want people to feel like they need to spend money on them.

J.J. and Lauren talk and she tells him it isn’t fair that he didn’t tell her that he told his family. He thinks it is fair he told them because he is the one that had to move out. Lauren says that she agrees with the family about therapy. J.J. doesn’t want to do therapy because he had a bad experience with it growing up. He thought that the break between them would help a lot more than it had. He says he will keep an open mind about therapy.

Nikki goes to her mom’s house and is looking for Winston. Nikki is mad that Brie took Winston back without telling her. Kathy told Nikki that she will drive them over to Brie’s so they can talk it out. Nikki tells her mom that she doesn’t have John around and now she doesn’t have Winston so she is lonely.

At Brie and Bryan’s house Nikki and Brie argue about Winston. Brie says she doesn’t want Winston’s life interrupted more than necessary. Nikki agrees and Brie says she doesn’t want to be treated as just the babysitter because they both love Winston.  Nikki tells her to please not throw the Women Empowerment party.

At Brie’s baby shower, the decorations are gorgeous. Nikki did a wonderful job. Bryan shows up and wants to show Brie a gift, but not in front of everyone. He got her the video baby monitor system that he made her return. Brie gushes over it. They reveal the baby’s name to be Birdie.

Lauren and J.J. go to a marriage counselor. The counselor makes them do the talking stick. Lauren hopes that this will help him. He says he feels like she wants to be friends instead of lovers. She is feeling ignored. He says that he wants to work on the marriage more.

The storyline with Miz and Maryse and John and Nikki is going on. Nikki says she is really excited and nervous for the feud. Nikki is so happy to finally work with John and that WWE is letting them show their relationship.
