Nia Jax has provided an update on her health after undergoing double knee surgery nearly two months ago.
As seen below, she posted a video of her doing squats 7 weeks after surgery. The caption reads, “Rehab is going well. 7 weeks post double ACL surgery.”
Nia Jax underwent surgery on both knees back on April 25th. She had been dealing with pain for more than a year. After returning to the gym in early May, she noted on Twitter that she was recovering a rate that was “better than doctors expected.”
Last week, she wrote that surgery had been a success because she was able to “drop it down low” and then pick it back up “real slow.”
No word yet on when Nia Jax will be out of action, but a typical recovery period for this injury is approximately 9 months. That would keep her out of action through the end of the year and could be wrestling again by the 2020 Royal Rumble.

Becky Lynch got under Nia Jax’s skin recently on Twitter. Lynch was responding to a Tweet featuring Lacey Evans cleaning a toilet when she mentioned Nia. In previous Twitter wars, Lynch had pointed out that another word for toilet is Jax.
Becky Lynch will have at least 2 title matches on Sunday. She is scheduled to defend the RAW Women’s Championship against Lacey Evans and the Smackdown Women’s Championship against Charlotte Flair.
The women’s Money in the Bank match will also take place on Sunday. Last year, Alexa Bliss won the Money in the Bank and cashed it in on the same night. If the same situation occurs this year with the women’s Money in the Bank match, Lynch could potentially have 3 title defenses tomorrow night in Hartford.
Nia Jax Injury
The former RAW Women’s Champion is currently on the shelf after having had double knee surgery.
“Some of you may or may not know, but I will be out of action for a little while,” Nia Jax said regardding her injury. “Unfortunately, I have been pushing through some pain over the last year due to injuries in my knees and I will be undergoing surgery to repair both of my ACLs. I’m grateful to everyone who has supported me! Thank you!”
Nia Jax has been out of action for a while after she
underwent surgery last month and now she has provided a minor update on her
recovery.
While replying to a fan tweet, the former Raw Women’s Champion
revealed on Twitter that she is doing very well and her recovery is going
better than the doctors expected:
Nia Jax revealed in a post last month that she has been working through injuries in the past year and she will be undergoing surgery to repair damage in her knees after WrestleMania.
She then underwent successful surgery to repair both her torn ACLs on April 25th last month and revealed the news of the successful operation via an Instagram post.
The estimated recovery time from such injury is 9 months
which puts Jax’s return right around the time for the Royal Rumble event and
the beginning of the WrestleMania season next year.
However Nia Jax had noted in the previous post that she was
already walking with some assistance and now her latest tweet suggests that she
could be back in ring sooner rather than later.
No word yet on what WWE is planning for the former Champion
when she returns and it’d be interesting to see if she stays on Raw or joins
SmackDown Live after her comeback.
Nia Jax is on the road to recovery after undergoing double knee surgery on Thursday.
Earlier this month, she announced on Twitter that she needed surgery on both her ACL’s:
“Some of you may or may not know, but I will be out of action for a little while. Unfortunately, I have been pushing through some pain over the last year due to injuries in my knees and I will be undergoing surgery to repair both of my ACLs. I’m grateful to everyone who has supported me! Thank you!”
Nia Jax posted a photo on Twitter (seen below) showing her legs wrapped up and in braces. Jax seems determined to begin her physical rehabilitation and says she’s already walking with some assistance.
The former Raw Women’s champion is expected to miss considerable ring time. The length of her recovery time will be determined by a number of factors, but ACL tears have have kept Superstars out of action for around 9 months.
Nia Jax has announced she will require surgery that will keep her out of action for significant time.
The former RAW Women’s Champion tweeted a message on Friday announcing that she has been working through pain in both her knees over the past year. She will soon undergo surgery to repair both of her ACL’s. The news of her injury was first reported by Pro Wrestling Sheet.
She wrote, “Some of you may or may not know, but I will be out of action for a little while. Unfortunately, I have been pushing through some pain over the last year due to injuries in my knees and I will be undergoing surgery to repair both of my ACLs. I’m grateful to everyone who has supported me! Thank you!”
While there are several factors that will determine her recovery time, ACL tears have have kept Superstars out of action for 9 months (and more). It would be optimistic to assume she will be back in action before 2020.
Nia Jax last competed at WrestleMania 35 this past weekend. She participated in the fatal 4-way match for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. That match saw The IIconics take the gold from Sasha Banks and Bayley.
It has not been a good week for WWE Superstars on the injury front. In addition to Nia Jax announcing she needs double knee surgery, AJ Styles is dealing with a hip injury, Ronda Rousey has a broken hand, Big E is undergoing surgery for a torn meniscus and Daniel Bryan is reportedly dealing with an unspecified injury.
We wish Nia Jax (and everyone else) a speedy recovery.
While speaking with Inside The Ropes over WrestleMania weekend, former WWE RAW Women’s Champion Nia Jax talked about the reason that a match against Dean Ambrose never took place.
Earlier this year starting at the WWE Royal Rumble pay-per-view event, WWE had Jax mix it up with male superstars in a physical way when she took R-Truth’s #30 spot in the Men’s Royal Rumble Match. As a result, she received some finishers from top stars including Randy Orton’s RKO and Rey Mysterio’s 619.
Moving along to an episode of Raw in Phoenix, AZ the next night, Jax hit Ambrose with a forearm that sent through the ropes as he was about to leave.
This led to a video advertisement surfacing online that promoted a match between the two stars at a live event on February 22nd in Jonesboro, Arkansas that ran locally.
Jax was asked about the match never taking place in this interview, which she revealed to be an issue with her schedule that prevented the match from happening.
“Unfortunately, my schedule was messed [up], they didn’t have my schedule right. I had Total Divas work that I had to go to, so it was more like the scheduling was off and we couldn’t make it work.”
“I don’t want to say 100% because his wife is around here somewhere, but he was scared of me. He’s the one that asked for it to be scrapped. Just saying.”
Former WWE RAW Women’s Champion Nia Jax has reflected on an incident where she injured Becky Lynch.
She did so while she was recently interviewed by the Sporting News. This was when Jax punched Lynch back in November on RAW during an invasion angle where she would cause Lynch to suffer from a broken nose and concussion.
This led to Lynch being pulled from her champion vs. champion match against Ronda Rousey at Survivor Series.
“Obviously, we learned that I can’t throw punches (laughs). I’m just kidding. From that experience, there’s always an opportunity whether it’s good or bad. If somebody gets hit, that happens in a contact sport.
It happens, so you just have to be able to look at the positives and take it and run with it. I just realized that everything is an opportunity no matter what happens.”
Jax continued by stating that people might freak out like they did on her and that’s ok due to her now being one of the top heels in this company. She added that it’s her job to be a heel and take everything as an opportunity.
Jax is slated to team up with Tamina to challenge Bayley and Sasha Banks for the WWE Tag Team Titles at Sunday’s Fastlane pay-per-view event.
There were recent reports that Nia Jax would be taking on Dean Ambrose at a WWE Live Event on February 22nd in Jonesboro, Arkansas. The match was recently ‘cancelled’ for that live show. The ‘feud’ between the two started on a recent episode of WWE RAW, where Ambrose lost to Seth Rollins. After the match, Ambrose began to cut a promo in the ring before being interrupted by Nia Jax and Tamina. The two had a standoff for a brief moment, before Ambrose attempted to leave the ring. However, Jax clocked “The Lunatic Fringe” with a forearm and sent him through the ropes and out of the ring.
There are apparently still plans for WWE to present intergender matches at some point in the future. The Wrestling Observer stated that “The idea of such a match at some point is still alive. It’s not as if they are dead set against it as much as it’s just not happening there and it all depends on the new creative direction with Ambrose.”
The announcement of the intergender match had caused a huge buzz. Before Jax’s involvement in the recent Men’s Royal Rumble there was absolutely no chance of seeing male and female Superstars facing off like this. The only recent exception was seen at last year’s WrestleMania, where Ronda Rousey took on Triple H to a huge response from the crowd, this came during a mixed tag match.
As we reported recently Dean Ambrose will be taking on Nia Jax at an upcoming WWE Live event. The ‘feud’ between the two started on a recent episode of WWE RAW, where Ambrose lost to Seth Rollins. After the match, Ambrose began to cut a promo in the ring before being interrupted by Nia Jax and Tamina. The two had a standoff for a brief moment, before Ambrose attempted to leave the ring. However, Jax clocked “The Lunatic Fringe” with a forearm and sent him through the ropes and out of the ring.

Former Smackdown Live General Manager Paige recently took to Twitter to react to the intergender match being announced. Paige stated “Yessss an actual intergender match!! Couldn’t be happier for my girl @NiaJaxWWE killing it every damn day! You better werkkkk sis!”
It is not confirmed if we will see the match on television or if it is being kept exclusively to this Live event. There have been recent rumors that WWE are potentially considering putting this match on the WrestleMania card.
On last week’s episode of Monday Night RAW, Dean Ambrose was defeated in a bout by Seth Rollins. After the match, Ambrose began to cut a promo in the ring before being interrupted by Nia Jax and Tamina. The two had a standoff for a brief moment, before Ambrose attempted to leave the ring. However, Jax clocked “The Lunatic Fringe” with a forearm and sent him through the ropes and out the ring.
Shortly after, Ambrose was interviewed backstage to get his reaction to the situation. Ambrose said he’s going to forgive Jax and accept what he believes was an apology when Jax screamed at him from the ring as he left. Now, WWE will be using the incident at an upcoming house show.
A commercial promoting an upcoming WWE live event in Jonesboro, Arkansas on February 22nd is advertising an intergender match between Ambrose and Jax. Check it out here:
It remains to be seen if the feud will make its way to WWE TV, but the company certainly wouldn’t be against it. Jax interacted with male Superstars physically during the Men’s Royal Rumble match last month.
She entered at number 30 after attacking R-Truth and taking his spot in the match. Jax proceeded to eliminate Mustafa Ali. However, she was then attacked by Rey Mysterio, Dolph Ziggler, and Randy Orton. After eating a finisher from each man, Jax was finally eliminated.
What do you think about Ambrose being advertised for an intergender match with Nia Jax?
Former WWE Monday Night RAW and SmackDown Live Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair doesn’t seem to be too big a fan of intergender wrestling. The fad returned to WWE this past weekend at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view (PPV). Nia Jax attacked R-Truth, who entered at the number 30 spot, taking his place in the bout. Jax proceeded to eliminate SmackDown Live star Mustafa Ali from the Rumble.
However, Randy Orton, Rey Mysterio, and Dolph Ziggler all attacked Jax before eliminating her. Speaking to Shan & RJ from 105.3 The Fan, Flair said Jax “looked like a star” in the men’s Rumble. However, it’s not something she thinks should happen every week, as it’s “easy entertainment”:
“When I’ve been asked the question, ‘Do you want to wrestle the guys?’ I say ‘no’ because it’s easy to wrestle a guy. It’s easy entertainment,” said Charlotte. “It’s harder to tell a good story with all female talent. But I thought Nia looked like a star and she killed it.
“She added a lot to the Men’s Rumble. I don’t think they could have thrown anyone in there. A lot of it had to do with Nia’s presence and size. She could handle it. Maybe it will open the doors but I don’t think it should be happening every week. It has to be once a year or it takes away from the uniqueness of it.”
Intergender wrestling has become very prominent in the indy wrestling scene as of late. During WWE’s Mixed Match Challenge, fans became annoyed that the female and male talents couldn’t interact with each other physically. Thus, prompting WWE’s decision to have Jax in the Men’s Rumble. It will be interesting to see how much more WWE does this.
What do you make of Flair’s comments on intergender wrestling?
During the men’s Royal Rumble matchup this past Sunday, R-Truth would never get the opportunity to fulfil his hard-earned #30 spot. This was due to Nia Jax assaulting him during his entrance before inserting herself into the fray.
According to a recent report by Rajah.com, Nia Jax was a bit too violent during the attack, legitimately injuring R-Truth’s ankle and face. This has led there to be some supposed heat between R-Truth and Jax.
WWE spun this incident into a backstage segment for WWE.com where he attempted to find her accompanied by Titus O’Neil.
WWE Hall of Famer Jerry “The King” Lawyer has corroborated this during his podcast, Dinner With The King Podcast.
“And this got real heat for real,” said Lawlor. “She blasted poor R-Truth and knocked him face-first into that wall. He was hot, for real hot. They were having to hold him back there. She made it look good.”
R-Truth earned his spot as the number 30 entrant. This was done when he and Carmella would emerge victorious in WWE’s recent Mixed Match Challenge tournament. They would win an all-expenses-paid vacation to anywhere in the world. R-Truth would surprise Carmella with a trip to WWE’s headquarters in Stamford.
Listen to Jerry Lawler’s comments about Nia Jax in the men’s Royal Rumble:
Following her appearance in the Men’s Royal Rumble, Nia Jax attacked Dean Ambrose on WWE RAW. Ambrose had just lost a match against Seth Rollins and began cutting a promo in the ring. Nia Jax and Tamina interrupted Ambrose and after a standoff between the two Superstars Ambrose would try and leave the ring. Jax then connected with a forearm to Ambrose that sent him through the ropes.
WWE’s official YouTube channel caught up with the former WWE Champion after the fact for his thoughts. Ambrose stated “I have spent a lot of time and drank a lot of cocktails with Tamina over the years, Great woman. I’m going to give her the benefit of the doubt here, I don’t know why she’s fraternizing with this Nia Jax.”
Ambrose went on to say “I’m going to assume that Nia simply tripped and fell in to me, and was not trying to start some physical altercation with me, a man. Because that’s insane, right? So, I’m going to accept her, what I assume is an apology is what she was yelling at me from the ring as I was being escorted away by referees. Like I would do something. Can you imagine? I’m going to accept her apology. And we’re all good.”
Recently, WWE posted a message highlighting female wrestler moments from 2018. The pictures featured six female superstars, all of them white.
Nia Jax took an issue with WWE not including any minorities and posted a short but strong response to the picture by tweeting out the hashtag ‘#WeHereToo’ and a few emoji of representing women of color.
Nia Jax was one of the three Raw Women’s Champions that were crowned in 2018. The other two being Alexa Bliss and Ronda Rousey. Jax, a woman of color, was not featured in the tweet.
As for SmackDown, there were four champions this year: Carmella, Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch and Asuka, the minority. Asuka was also not featured in the tweet.
2018 has been a groundbreaking year for women’s revolution in the WWE as we witnessed a lot of ‘firsts’ happening in the company. Female superstars were featured in main events, had their own pay-per-views, with amazing matches. Nia Jax’s tweet has instilled a notion that WWE is still lacking with promoting racial equality somewhere. Do you agree with Nia’s views? Let us know in the comments below.

Should Nia Jax ever require the services of a manager in WWE, she now knows where to find one. Former WWE writer Brian Gewirtz recently took to Twitter to share an old photo he drew as a child. The photo was of him performing his “dream job” of being a professional wrestling manager.
After sharing the picture he offered his services to Jax for the December 26th house show from Madison Square Garden. The show is shaping up to be one of WWE’s biggest live events of the year, which will feature the MSG debut of rising NXT star and former UFC fighter Matt Riddle.
Gewirtz and Jax are good friends, as Gewirtz also serves as the Senior Vice President for Jax’s cousin, The Rock’s, “Seven Bucks Productions.” Jax jokingly responded by telling Gewirtz that he’s hired, but said he’d have to take bumps. You can see their Twitter exchange below.
Over this past weekend, Jax unsuccessfully challenged Ronda Rousey for the RAW Women’s Championship. They met one-on-one at the Tables Ladders and Chairs (TLC) pay-per-view (PPV) in San Jose, California. Jax had earned the opportunity by winning a Battle Royal at the Evolution PPV in October.
What do you think about Gewirtz wanting to manage Nia Jax?
On this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW, Alexa Bliss did not speak during her “press conference” segment between Nia Jax and Ronda Rousey. The segment was to hype this weekend’s RAW Women’s Title bout between Rousey and Jax at the Tables Ladders and Chairs (TLC) pay-per-view (PPV). Per a report from Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Bliss is dealing with an illness, which is the reason she didn’t speak Monday.
The original plan was for Bliss to cut a lengthy promo, however, the decision was made for her not to speak. Instead, Nia Jax carried the segment until Rousey came to the ring. Bliss then left the ring as soon as Rousey entered.
The report noted that several WWE stars have been dealing with illnesses, so something seems to be spreading throughout the locker room. Mandy Rose also noted on social media that she has been dealing with an illness. This would explain why her match with Naomi didn’t go down on SmackDown Live on Tuesday. Also, earlier this week a report emerged revealing Finn Balor had been sent home from WWE’s Latin American tour.
Initial speculation suggested Balor was dealing with an injury, but it turns out Balor was also dealing with an illness.
Ronda Rousey and Nia Jax have begun their social media back-and-forth ahead of their title bout. Rousey will defend her RAW Women’s Championship against Jax at the Tables Ladders and Chairs (TLC) pay-per-view (PPV). Jax earned the opportunity when she won a Battle Royal at Evolution, WWE’s first-ever all-female PPV.
Rousey was briefly involved in a feud against SmackDown Live’s Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair, however, for now, she’ll focus her attention on Jax. Jax has garnered quite a bit of heel heat for herself in recent weeks. Things really kicked off for her when she legitimately broke Becky Lynch’s nose and gave her a concussion on an episode of RAW.
As a result, Lynch was removed from last month’s Survivor Series PPV, and fans have held a grudge ever since. This won’t be the first time Rousey and Jax have shared the ring. At the Money In The Bank PPV earlier this year, Jax defended the RAW Women’s Title against Rousey. However, MITB briefcase winner Alexa Bliss attacked both women before cashing-in, defeating Jax for the title.
Rousey went on to defeat Bliss at SummerSlam for the RAW Women’s Title, which she has held ever since. Recently, Rousey took to Instagram and threw out a shot at Jax ahead of TLC. Jax responded by telling Rousey to lay off social media, and instead spend more time “learning how to wrestle”:
“The #IrresistibleForce and the #MonolithicMute are apparently some busy ladies with no spare time to catch the ass whoopin’ that’s coming to them. Good thing this Monday on #RAW @niajaxwwe and @saronasnukawwe have a hot double date with me and @natbynature. And the tables will turn, cause this time THEY are going to be the ones leaving repulsed by their choices. #RowdyHartVsMuteForce”
Nia Jax is getting her chance to face RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey once again when they meet with the title being on the line at the TLC pay-per-view event on Sunday, December 16th, 2018 in Los Angeles, California at the Staples Center that will air on the WWE Network. WWE confirmed the match on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in Los Angeles, CA.
Jax took to her official Twitter account to hype the match. She wrote, “The most highly anticipated match of the year! Don’t worry my hand will be 100% by then.”
WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle celebrated 20 years in pro wrestling on Monday and took the time to reflect on this milestone when wrote the following about early training days with Dory Funk Jr. and Tom Pritchard on Instagram:
“Exactly 20 years ago, I started my pro wrestling career training with Dory Funk Jr, Tom Pritchard and some future HOFers … Christian, Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy. It’s been rewarding, exciting and fun … AND challenging, miserable and devastating. But I wouldn’t change it. I’m stronger now due to the many lessons my life has thrown in front of me.”

On Friday’s Talk Is Jericho, Chris Jericho stated that the punch from Nia Jax that led to Becky Lynch’s broken face looked “legitimate [and], deliberate.”
To provide some context, Jericho was previewing Sunday’s Survivor Series card with co-hosts Jack Slade and John Howarth.
In discussing the switch from Lynch vs. Ronda Rousey to Rousey vs. Charlotte Flair, Jericho recounted the circumstances that forced the match to be changed.
“You know, stuff happens. If you see the punch that she took, oh my gosh, it didn’t look like a potato,” Jericho said. “It looked like a legitimate, deliberate punch to the face.”
“But, whatever, we’ll hold off judgment on that,” Jericho was quick to add.
Jericho also had some fun with the way that Lynch’s injury has been described.
“Becky got stiffed, st-izz-iffed, by Nia Jax, and they said she broke her face,” Jericho said. “Has anyone went to the doctor and been diagnosed with a broken face? Wouldn’t it be, like, a broken orbital bone?”
For the full context of Jericho’s comments, as well as the rest of his thoughts on Survivor Series, you can listen to the full episode of Talk Is Jericho below.
Tama Tonga doesn’t hold much back. In the midst of all the turmoil surrounding Becky Lynch’s recent concussion, Tama managed to get in his comments to both Lynch and Nia Jax.
First, Tama offered a sign of respect to “The Man”:
Tama Tonga will be competing in New Japan Pro Wrestling’s World Tag League from November 17th to December 9th. There has been a slight change of format this year. Teams will be combined into one big group as opposed to two separate ones. This format was used for the debut of the Super Junior Tag League earlier this year.
It’s been a particularly eventful last few days in wrestling. In another update to this ongoing saga, Becky Lynch has just sent a message to Nia Jax on Twitter. Her comments were made in response to a post of Nia’s from earlier today.
“You gave me your best sucker punch, but I got back up to destroy your whole roster. They won’t let me fight, but I’ll get back up from that too. It’s what I do. So enjoy your one free shot, because as bad as my memory is now, I haven’t forgotten you, bitch.”
A Quick Recap Of Today’s Events
A lot has happened today so a quick review might be in order.
“Unfortunately, now everyone knows if someone hauls off and punches you for real, your face implodes,” Rousey wrote. “I suggest you keep practicing your tough guy’s faces in the mirror, should be very effective physical therapy.
It’s perhaps a little odd that Rousey pointed out people don’t get punched for real in WWE during a kayfabe style post but that’s wrestling.
Then there were reports from backstage that Nia Jax has heat with the roster for what happened.
Nia Jax has received a lot of heat, both backstage and from fans, for what transpired Monday. Jax injured SmackDown Live Women’s Champion Becky Lynch during a brawl segment on RAW. Jax hit Lynch with a hard punch that broke the Irishwoman’s nose, forcing her off this weekend’s Survivor Series pay-per-view (PPV).
Lynch was initially scheduled to face RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey due to the Champion vs. Champion format of the PPV. With Lynch now off the card due to injury, Charlotte Flair will face Rousey at Survivor Series instead. Jax has been taking a lot of heat online from fans since she injured Lynch.
Jax posted an advertisement for a meet-and-greet she’ll be holding on Friday. In the comments, however, fans are trashing the former RAW Women’s Champion for injuring Lynch:
Earlier this morning, Jax took to Twitter to address the situation. She posted a photo of her cut and bruised fist with the caption, “Hey…we don’t deliver mail, things happen. Is anyone gonna ask me about how my fist feels?”
The controversy surrounding Jax injuring Lynch has sparked tons of discussions online. Even former WWE Intercontinental Champion Ryback recently unloaded on F4WOnline’s Bryan Alvarez for critiquing Jax. It will be interesting to see how the situation plays out moving forward.
This has been a huge week for professional wrestling, as we approach Survivor Series from Los Angeles this weekend. The week started off with a tremendous women’s locker room brawl to hype this weekend’s pay-per-view (PPV) on Monday Night RAW. Unfortunately, that braw resulted in the injury of Becky Lynch, who is now off the Survivor Series card, canceling the event’s most highly-anticipated match.
The SmackDown Live Women’s Champion kicked off the segment by attacking RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey backstage. She then came to the ring to lead an attack on the RAW Women’s locker room, alongside her fellow SmackDown Live stars. However, during the brawl, Nia Jax hit Lynch with a hard shot that broke ner nose. Lynch continued on with the segment despite bleeding all over herself.
It was soon determined that the injury was significant enough to pull Lynch from her match with Rousey on Sunday. Now, Rousey will face Charlotte Flair, who was hand-selected by Lynch as her replacement, instead. With one of the most anticipated matches of the year being called off due to injury, Jax has apparently taken some heat backstage for the incident.
Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp, who initially broke the story of Lynch’s injury, has provided some insight. Initially, there wasn’t any heat towards Jacks for busting Lynch open. However, after the severity of the injury was determined, that quickly changed:
Nia is careless is the attitude backstage right now
Nia Jax is looking to settle some unfinished business with Ronda Rousey in the squared circle under the WWE banner. Jax recently spoke to SportBible about the initial match and the inevitable rematch.
Jax stated that their match at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view event was pretty incredible as she was in the ring with one of the greatest athletes in the world “And she has a great work ethic, she’s incredibly strong and I feel like we have some serious unfinished business that I really want to get back to where we started. I feel like we started something really special and it can only get better so I can’t wait to see where it goes.”
Jax won the battle royal at the WWE Evolution pay-per-view event in Long Island, New York at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum on the WWE Network. As a result of this win, she has earned the right to challenge for the Women’s Title at a later date.
That potential date for their battle over the WWE RAW Women’s Title could come next month at the TLC pay-per-view event on Sunday, December 16th, 2018 in San Jose, California at the SAP Center. Time will tell when WWE decides to book this match.
Former WWE RAW Women’s Champion Nia Jax spoke to SportBible recently to talk about various topics including Roman Reigns’ fight with leukemia that forced him to drop the Universal Title and take time off from the WWE.
Jax brought up how his character is such a quiet, humble person and larger than life as he is Superman while his true personality is a very shy humble guy and he’s super giving and loving.
“So that’s why when the news came out everybody was hit hard. I feel like that day there was just a hole in the entire locker room. He gives advice to everybody and he’s always there for everybody. And he carried the company on his shoulders on his shoulders for the last few years.” Jax added that they’re thankful to him for all the contributions he’s given and that everyone is trying to find their footing now they’ve lost their Superman.
Jax also talked about Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and how she sees him as a goofball but he’s very hard-working and always giving her advice. She stated that he was super excited about the Evolution pay-per-view and watch some of the show.
“His heart is always with the WWE, it’s so crazy because you wouldn’t think that with how busy he is, he wouldn’t keep up with storylines and characters and stuff but he does. If something peaks his interest, he would definitely step back into ‘The Rock’ role.”
