Nikki Garcia is grateful that she and her ex-husband, Artem Chigvintsev, can amicably coparent their 5-year-old son, Matteo. "I have so much passion and love for this business, and that's why I was like, 'I'm not gonna let people take away how much fun I had out there.' I truly love wrestling," Nikki, 41, said on the Thursday, September 4, episode of her and twin sister Brie Garcia's eponymous podcast. "That's why I'm here. That's why I'm traveling every week." Nikki, who initially retired from the wrestling ring in 2019, returned to her WWE roots earlier this year.
