Total Bellas Island - Total Bellas recap for September 20, 2017

Brie and Nikki are in Los Angeles as part of an Oscars show for USA Network. As they are there, they call mom Kathy, and also talk to Winston.

At SmackDown Live six weeks before WrestleMania, Nikki hopes that John Cena will be at gorilla position at WrestleMania, then Nikki and Nattie has their last match against each other. Nikki hopes to have a storyline for WrestleMania.

John Cena and Nikki meet Brie and Bryan at their house, which is less than 1/3 the size of Cena' guest house. As John Cena checks out the backyard, he jokingly asks Bryan why he hasn't gotten zoned to agricultural. Bryan says he is hesitant to go to WrestleMania, as he may miss the birth of his and Brie's child if Brie were to go into labor while he is in the area for eight days. John Cena says he would exhaust all his options before making a choice, and says that in the end, he would not go. Bryan says he was thinking that. He then mentions to Cena his idea of a gardening channel on YouTube, and Brie and Nikki are wondering what the heck Bryan is doing.

Brie and Bryan head to Babies R Us for their registry. They also go shopping for baby stuff. Brie wants to buy all the baby things in sight, including a baby monitor, but Bryan wants to focus on the bare necessities.

Brie, Kathy, J.J. and Lauren are at the Birdiebee offices in Phoenix, Arizona. J.J. says that he and Lauren have a lot of work ahead of them, but he still wants her to be part of the family. Brie talks about how Bryan thinks she is putting too many things on the registry, being the minimalist that he is. Nikki calls in on the meeting as well. After she hangs up, Brie says she feels bad, because Nikki has thrown two different baby showers, a bridal shower and a bachelorette party, and says they should throw a women's empowerment party for her.

Nikki, Kathy, J.J. and Lauren are at a restaurant. J.J. bring up the party that Brie wants to throw for her, but the whole party was meant to be a secret and Nikki thinks it is a "sympathy party" due to how it is explained to her.

Brie and Bryan look at all the things that have been bought for the new baby, one of which is the baby monitor that Brie wanted. Bryan wants to know who went all out on a $400 smart baby monitor, but Brie doesn't want to say who did. Bryan says she won't reveal who it is because it is probably just one person who spent $400 on something they don't need. Brie decides to handle the baby supplies herself and get rid of the baby monitor.

Brie visits Lauren at J.J. and Lauren's house, and talks to her about her problems with J.J. Lauren wants to do therapy, but she feels that J.J. is just giving up. She does not even want to think about a divorce, as she loves the family and wants to keep it together, but she an't do anything about it if J.J. is not willing to sacrifice. Brie tells Laurent to pressure J.J. into therapy, but if he does not want to do anything, then it is up to Lauren to decide if she wants to deal with someone that selfish. Lauren says that with all their ups and downs, he is still her best friend.

Nikki and John Cena head to a restaurant, and Nikki tells John Cena about that the party Brie wants to throw for her, thinking it is a pity party. John Cena says this is not right, and that she should tell Brie to stop it.

At Brie and Bryan'shouse, Nikki comes to visit and confronts her over the women empowerment party she wants to throw for her. Brie says she came from a good place, since she does not know if she will ever throw a baby shower or a bachelorette party for her like Nikki did for her. Winston throws up during the conversation.

John Cena and Nikki are at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards.

Brie calls Kathy, asking if she and Nikki are up for breakfast, and finds out that Nikki is at the Kids' Choice Awards and that Winston is with her. Brie feels bothered about that, since Brie feels Winston's home is with her and Bryan, even though Winston is Nikki's French bulldog.

As John Cena and Nikki host the Nickelodeon's Kids Choice Awards, Brie and Bryan go get Winston.

At Kathy and Johnny's condo, it becomes apparent that there is a tiff between Brie and Nikki, and Kathy that they should talk it out as she does not want to get caught in the middle of anything and doesn't want it so that the host of the baby shower - Nikki - isn't even talking to her.

Brie and Bryan have some tea at home, and also have a talk about the registry gifts. Bryan says he did not grow up with very much, and Brie says the same. Bryan says that he wants to live simply, because the simpler he lives, the more comfortable he feels. He gets that it is not for everybody, but by having a lot of stuff, that means that a lot of stuff has to be taken care of. He also does not want their child thinking material things are important. Nikki understands, but feels that Bryan's anxiety takes the fun out of how he lives. Bryan says that he knows he and Brie are not big spenders or buyers, even though buying things gives a temporary high, but they and everyone in their family works hard for their money, and doesn't want the family to feel like they have to spend money on them, and that is why it is hard for him. Brie wonders if Bryan should be at the baby shower, since she doesn't want him to have anxiety and make someone else feel uncomfortable.

J.J. talks to Lauren, who wants him to be honest about their problems. When therapy is brought up, J.J. says he wants no part of it because he was forced to go after his parents divorced, and he didn't like it. Lauren says they need it now, as they are unable to communicate. J.J. J.J. says that he is open to therapy, but when Lauren reminds him that he will have to bare his feeling at therapy, J.J. tells her "Be careful what you wish for."

Nikki finds out that Winston is with Brie and Bryan, and it becomes apparent that not only was Kathy not supposed to tell Brie and Bryan that Winston was with her, but it becomes apparent to Kathy that there is something going on with Brie and Nikki. Nikki feels like she should not have to compete for Winston, but Kathy says Brie and Bryan have taken ownership of Winston due to them having Winston around all the time and that they are defensive because she misses Winston and wants to see him more and more. Nikki says that she feels lonley all the time, since John is not always around and Winston is not near her, either.

At Brie and Bryan's house, Nikki talks with Brie over what happened regarding Winston. They both agree that they need to communicate better and focus on what is best for Winston, given what is going on in their lives and their careers. Also, Nikki definitely does not want to do the women empowerment party.

Brie and Nikki head to El Chorro for the baby shower. Bryan makes a surprise appearance, and gifts Brie with the smart baby monitor, saying that he decided to get it for her since she wanted it. Even though she is not okay with someone spending $400 on her, he is perfectly okay with getting the baby monitor for her if it makes her happy. Brie announces that she and Bryan will name their child Birdie.

J.J. and Lauren go ahead with marriage counseling.

At SmackDown Live five weeks before WrestleMania, Nikki gets her WrestleMania storyline where she tags with John Cena against The Miz and Maryse as WWE acknowledges for the first time on WWE programming that John Cena and Nikki Bella are a couple.

Aleister Black shows up. He says that fifteen years ago, he started a journey that led him to NXT. In those fifteen years, he traveled the world and saw and experienced a lot, and pull all those experience on his skin as scars. He says he didn't want to forget the devil on his back. His journey in NXT is far from done, and he knows what he must do. Suddenly, The Velveteen Dream shows up. The Velveteen Dream says that everything that fades to black must come to the light. He says Aleister walked the darkness only to be blinded by the light that is The Velveteen Dream, and and all the light, he does not see it, and asks where his scars are. He sees not scars, but a man who is hurt and is in pain, as it is scribbled on his skin like lies. He says that his biggest problem is not feeling, but fear, and says Aleister looks afraid to him. He says Aleister is afraid to show emotion and afraid of the light, and no matter what he tells anyone, he has a heart. After Velveteen Dream says his heart is in the wrong place, Aleister kicks the microphone from his hands with Black Mass. The Velveteen Dream responds by getting on his knees and crawling backwards out of the ring.

We hear from Dakota Kai. She may be new to NXT, but she is not to be taken lightly. She is the captain of Team Kick, and even thought she does not know the future of the Women's title, she plans to kick heads off.
