In case you missed Sunday night's episode of Total Divas or you just want to relive it, we've got the best moments from the show in a full pic/gif recap!

Right out of the gate, Eva Marie gets a call from a WWE executive letting her know that Maxim is interested in photographing her for a spread in one of their upcoming issues. She was the only one they picked out of all the Diva newbies. This is a big deal!

Eva says she has always wanted to be in Maxim and has a mini freak out in her car!

Ariane on the other hand is dealing with something that's starting to really get on her nerves: Vinny.

She's trying to get ready for a red carpet event and he keeps bothering her about going. She says it's a work thing and he just can't come this time. Sounds reasonable.

Vinny keeps on nagging her and we hear Ariane scream the "wonderful" sounding, "Baaaaabe!"

He's pushing her buttons...

In a much happier relationship, Nikki Bella is over WWE Superstar John Cena's house watching him get stretched.

A pair of athletic stretchers (is that what they're called?), are twisting and pulling his body every which way and it looks painful.

Nikki says that WWE wrestlers get stretched to help prevent injury because they put their bodies through a lot.

The WWE Diva decides to take a turn at getting stretched and for some reason, it looks a lot better when she does it...

After a lot of strange sexual noises, she hops off the table and says she feels great.

She gives John a kiss and says, "And now I'm more flexible."

I wonder what she means...

Eva Marie tells JoJo about the huge Maxim opportunity and JoJo doesn't seem too happy for her. JoJo's acting really standoffish and Eva thinks it's because they're starting to compete now.

JoJo admits that she really needs to find her own niche and wants to start singing for WWE. Eva questions if JoJo even wants to wrestle. Yikes.

The Diva newbies head to dinner with the other Divas and they forget to dress up. Brie Bella says it's always better to be overdressed than underdressed.

At the dinner, Ariane reveals she's not in love with Vinny and she's nervous because he wants her to meet his family. She starts to second guess their relationship...

It's WWE Raw time and Nikki and Brie have a big match against the current Diva champ and the Funkadactyls!

None of them hold back. They really do put their body through a lot!

Brie gets thrown into Nikki, which sends Nikki flying off the ring and onto the ground!

Nikki jams her leg into the ground, which causes her severe pain in her shin.

Ouch!

Nikki reveals she had a serious leg injury during her competitive soccer days. She broke her leg and had to get three screws and a rod put in. It's bothered her ever since.

We know it's sad and painful and everything, but look how cute she was!

Brie says Nikki needs to see a doctor but Nikki doesn't want to. She doesn't want to ruin her career but Brie reminds Nikki that her own career is on the line. They're The Bella Twins, they're a team.

If Nikki doesn't see a doctor, Brie threatens she'll tell John and WWE. #sisterlove

It's the day of Eva's big Maxim shoot and she's so excited! She's getting top of the line treatment and she says this is a dream come true.

She's all ready and she steps in front of the camera...

That's what we like to call "RED HOT"!

Work it, girl! Give the camera all you've got!

Now spin...

Perfect.

Ariane goes to get her nails done with Vinny and her dog, Glitty.

Vinny wants her to come meet his dad and she finally agrees just to make him stop asking.

Glitty gets her nails painted. It looks like she loves it...

Eva has the professional pictures from the Maxim shoot (which you can view HERE) and she wants to show JoJo.

JoJo is not excited and she continues to be very short and rude. Eva knows that JoJo's jealous of her opportunity and Eva is now over the whole situation.

It's a competition and she's not going to hold back.

JoJo and Trinity are working out with WWE Superstar Jon Uso.

That rope thing looks rough!

 

JoJo tells Trinity that she wants to sing for the WWE and Trinity really likes the idea. Trinity offers to help JoJo by having her come by her dad's studio to record the Funkadactyls theme song.

They're excited to start their own little singing group and they compare it to Destiny's Child. Um...no.

They hit the studio and record their bits for the new song.

JoJo kills it and goes for that fierce note! Sing it, girl!!

Nikki finally agrees to see a doctor about her leg and heads to the hospital with Brie.

They do a bone scan on her leg and it's not looking good. There's a spike in the monitors (we're not doctors so we're just assuming this is bad) and Nikki says that's not good news...

Meanwhile, Ariane and Vinny are in their car and Vinny says he has a big surprise for Ariane.

She's nervous and wondering what it is and he says don't worry about it, that's why it's a surprise. (Oh, she should be worrying...)

Vinny takes her inside a high-end jewelry store and has her check out engagement rings!

Something she did not want to do!

Ariane freaks out and storms out of the store crying. Vinny chases after her and asks her what's wrong.

She says it's all too much for her right now and she's not ready to make that big of a commitment. She's bawling and admits that she wants to take a break.

Vinny's hit really hard by that but says he respects her decision and will always be there for her.

Stuff just got real!

Nikki takes her bone scans to the WWE doctor and she finally gets the news that she was dreading.

The doctor tells her that it's a stress fracture and she can't wrestle for 12 weeks (three months time)! That's a huge amount of time in the fast-paced world of the WWE.

Trinity, Ariane and JoJo are rehearsing for their big main event performance and the nerves are starting to get to them.

Ariane is trying to keep it together after her break up, Trinity is sick with a bad cough and JoJo is nervous about her big debut.

While they're practicing, the king of the WWE, Vince McMahon, walks by and says hello!

Bet that doesn't help the nerves!

The Divas get out there in that ring and start to sing their little hearts out. They get off to a pretty good start but then it quickly goes downhill...

They aren't harmonizing properly, their dance moves are off and it's a trainwreck of a performance. JoJo calls it an "epic fail".

We thought we could hear Glitty howling in the background...

After watching the other Divas bomb, Nikki and Brie have to go talk with the WWE to find out Nikki's fate and in reality, the fate of the Bella Twins.

An executive says they've decided that Nikki cannot be in the ring or be seen limping around on crutches. That's not what a WWE Diva is in the world of wrestling.

He says Nikki has to go home and fully recover...

Nikki's devastated.

She's upset that this had to happen and fears that her wrestling career is over...
