Brie Garcia is in the midst of making major strides in her career, which has included adding one important skill to her professional resume: matchmaking.
Brie, 41, who recently cohosted ABC and ESPN’s coverage of the 2025 X Games, exclusively told Us Weekly how she was scouting potential suitors for her twin sister, Nikki Garcia, while she was on the ground in Salt Lake City.
“I had my goggles on this past weekend,” Brie said. “I was like, ‘Who’s single?’ I kept texting her. I’m very happy in my marriage, but I do think I’d be the best wingwoman. I told her, ‘This time, you need to listen to me and trust your sister.’ I feel like I’d find the best guy.”
Brie has been married to former professional wrestler Bryan Danielson since 2014, and the couple share two children: daughter Birdie, 8, and son Buddy, 4.

Nikki finalized her divorce from ex-husband Artem Chigvintsev in November 2024. The couple share son Matteo, 4.
Despite Brie’s confidence that there are “great men” out there for her sister, she admitted the twins’ fame presents a conundrum.
“This is what Nikki and I were thinking: Are they scared to date women in the public eye?” Brie questioned. “Especially ones with a podcast.”
The sisters cohost “The Nikki & Brie Show” podcast, which releases new episodes every Monday and Wednesday.

As for her recent X Games experience, Brie revealed it all came about by chance.
“It’s crazy, because Nikki actually got the phone call first to host,” Brie revealed. “She’s back at WWE. I was like their runner-up in a way. I got lucky that Nikki was busy and I could do it.”
Brie added, “I’m so grateful to the X Games because I’ve been wanting that chance. I feel like Nikki keeps getting the chances. We’re twins, so sometimes people will hire Nikki and it just feels like the Bella Twins. People put us together.”

“I really hope people saw Brie,” she said about the X Games gig. “Like, I’m here. I am ready to rumble. Let’s go.”
With the X Games in her back pocket, Brie is looking ahead with optimism about her television future.
“I’m hoping people saw that I’m capable,” she said. “I love sports, and I love what women have been doing in sports in the last five years across the board. I hope people will give me a chance and trust me.”
