Nia Jax Claims She Wasn’t Expecting To Win RAW Women’s Title At WrestleMania 34

Nia Jax reflected on her biggest moment thus far in her career with the WWE.

During a recent interview with KUSI Newsto to promote this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in San Diego, CA at the Valley View Casino Center on the USA Network, Jax talked about various topics including her match at WrestleMania 34.

If you recall, she beat Alexa Bliss to win the RAW Women’s Title at the show that took place in April. She gave The Rock credit for getting her into the pro wrestling business after watching him wrestle John Cena at WrestleMania 28 in Miami, Florida a few years ago.

She spoke about her WrestleMania match against Bliss where she noted that she was not expecting to win the title that night.

“To be able to go to WrestleMania in New Orleans, and the crowd is so hot and it’s so much fun” said Jax. “I didn’t expect to win that night, and when I was told that I was winning, and I [hit] the Samoan Drop off the second [rope], emotions just came over me and I just balled my eyes out and looked like a hot mess.”

She also credits The Rock’s mom as she noted that she was the person who inspired her to start working for the sports entertainment company.

“She was the one who actually told me that the company needs somebody like me to be here to show young boys and girls that no matter what size, shape, race, color, you should be following your dreams,” Jax said.

Jax will have her rematch against Bliss at the upcoming Extreme Rules event for the RAW Women’s Title.
