MIAMI – After earning another opportunity to dethrone Divas Champion AJ Lee, Brie Bella came to WWE Hell in a Cell with a singular purpose — squash the Black Widow and end her lengthy title reign. However, with everything on the line, AJ once again made a strong case that she and her butterfly-emblazoned title are, indeed, inseparable.

Fueled by Lee’s outright and upfront abhorrence of anyone associated with “Total Divas,” the road to WWE Hell in a Cell was a highly personal one for the battling beauties. When they collided inside the ring in Miami’s AmericanAirlines Arena, that animosity was obvious from the outset as Brie ad AJ stared each other down before trading blows.
With AJ locked in a half crab inside the ring, Nikki Bella took the fight to the champion’s enforcer, Tamina Snuka, at ringside. Yet when Brie went to connect with a big kick to the titleholder, Brie instead leveled Nikki, knocking her twin off the apron and onto the ringside floor.
The miscue was enough to open the door for Lee to ensnare her challenger in the excruciating Black Widow. Giving Brie no other choice but to tap out, AJ ensured that her love affair with the Divas Championship will continue a while longer.
