Nikki Bella vs Liv Morgan, who is RICHER? Both earn more than several male WWE stars
Nikki Bella and Liv Morgan recently clashed on WWE RAW, but beyond the ring, their earnings have sparked just as much buzz, with both women raking in more than many top male superstars. Liv Morgan already has established a decent reputation in WWE, with an estimated net worth of approximately $3 million. Her salary mainly has been through her WWE employment contract, product royalty money, and events appearances and other entertainment projects. It is quite impressive, but it is in comparison quite modest considering the veterans of WWE. Nikki Bella has a net worth of about $10 million which makes her at a very big advantage compared to Liv Morgan. Her financial success does not end in the ring as she is a part of many business endeavors including appearances on media being another source of wealth. Nikki Bella is vastly diversified as opposed to Liv Morgan. Other than her WWE income, she owns a wine company with her husband, Bonita Bonita Wine, has her own clothing brand Birdiebee, does podcasts with her sister Brie Bella and appears in various reality shows such as Total Bellas and Dancing with the Stars. Although Morgan is on the rise, the lion share of her earnings is distributed by the WWE itself. She has not done enough business or entry into mainstream entertainment which does not bring her in as much money as it would to a figure like Nikki Bella. The long career and fanbase such a person as Nikki Bella have brought about long-term endorsements and licensing deals. Her brand or image across and outside WWE has become a source of passive income to her even when she is not performing in the ring at a regular interval. The money difference between Liv Morgan and Nikki Bella does not only cover the wins when the bells of victory with bells on; it is a way of pointing out the disparity in branding, visibility, and an off-ring business acumen. Successful businesswoman and media networker Nikki Bella is one of the wealthiest female superstars of the WWE.

Nikki Garcia breaks silence on brutal divorce payout to Artem Chigvintsev... and where they really stand now
Nikki Garcia isn't holding back when it comes to her costly divorce from Artem Chigvintsev. The former WWE star, 41, opened up about her recent court-ordered settlement on Thursday, revealing she was forced to shell out $200,000 of her 'hard-earned money' in spousal support to her ex, Dancing with the Stars pro Chigvintsev, 42. The judge also ordered Garcia—formerly known as Nikki Bella—to pay $3,500 a month in child support for their 4-year-old son, Matteo. The pair will split the cost of his extracurriculars moving forward, and custody will be shared, according to court documents. Speaking candidly on the latest episode of The Nikki & Brie Show podcast, the reality star confirmed the terms of her split from Artem — and gave fans an honest update on where things stand between them now. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'Our settlement is what everyone saw. Yes, I had to give him $200,000. Spousal support, alimony,' she said, as twin sister Brie chimed in, 'That's what happens when you're the breadwinner.' But according to Nikki, the $200K payout didn't leave her bitter — in fact, she shocked listeners by admitting she 'got a steal' in the deal. 'Which is crazy to say,' she added. The Total Bellas star also revealed a jaw-dropping comment from the judge who oversaw their private mediation. 'Our judge said at the end of it, "This is the first time in all the years I've done this where a woman had to pay a man,"' Nikki recalled. '"You should be so damn proud that you built such an empire that someone wants a piece of it."' The comment hit hard — but also struck a nerve of pride. 'It was nice to hear that… even though it hurts because I broke my neck for that money,' she said. 'That money, all that is my hard-earned money.'' Nikki added she promised the judge that any future husband will be signing a prenup. As for the $3,500 a month in child support, Nikki said she's fine with it — because it's all about Matteo. 'Child support is so the child could have an equal life in both homes,' she explained. 'I don't even think twice about it… that is making sure Matteo is also 50/50, half of his other time is a good life.' Despite the split and drama, Nikki said she and Artem are finally in a solid place. 'We are co-parenting so amazing, and it makes Matteo's life so amazing, and I don't want it any other way.' She also made it clear that their divorce had 'nothing to do' with the highly publicized incident in August 2024, when Artem was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence in Napa County. No charges were filed. Artem later told People he was 'incredibly relieved and grateful' that the case was dropped. 'This has been an extremely difficult time for me. I am thankful that the truth has prevailed.' The DWTS pro emphasized his focus remains on fatherhood, calling Matteo 'the greatest blessing' and pledging to continue providing 'the love, support, and care he needs' as they move forward.
