5 Things We Learned From The Total Divas Season 8 Finale

#2. The Bellas have a terrible grasp on history

Advertising Week New York 2016 - Day 4

Total Divas is filled with Bella gaffes, but that doesn't make them any less entertaining. The season finale featured one of the all-time greatest Bella gaffes and left social media abuzz in shock. Apparently the duo are dumbfounded over when Albert Einstein existed (at least they don't believe he's mythical...hopefully). They even called Daniel Bryan, so that he could get in on the fun.

Brie asked her doting husband, "What year did Albert Einstein die?" Bryan almost knew the exact year and without hesitation said, "1958." Bryan was in the ballpark, at least. Einstein passed in 1955; but, the Bellas didn't even have the right century.

The Bellas actually believe that the 1921 Nobel Prize winner died long before his scientific prime: in the 1800s. Nikki said in head scratching fashion, "He seemed like he was a part of Socrates, or at least a part of Newton?" A shocked Daniel Bryan could be heard screaming over the cell phone, "Socrateeees?" Nikki added, "I thought he was around at the time of the guy with the light bulb [Thomas Edison, maybe]."

Bella went on to state that when you look at Einstein's photos, they do seem fairly recent; but, hat's also a significant issue since photographs were extremely uncommon in the 1800s. Just think of how few there actually are of Abraham Lincoln, one of the most notable figures in history. Meanwhile, Albert Einstein just rolled over in his grave.

Even Lana (hardly known for her historical acumen) took a moment to chide The Bella Twins via Twitter:

The @BellaTwins thinking Einstein died in the 1800s has me 😂😂😂 #TotalDivas
