Nia Jax Responds To Criticism Of Survivor Series: WarGames Performance
Nia Jax is pleased to have evoked an emotion from fans, even if that emotion was critical of her performance at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames. At WWE’s most recent Premium Live Event, Jax teamed with Liv Morgan, Tiffany Stratton, Raquel Rodriguez, and Candice LeRae inside WarGames. The quintet would lose to the face team of Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, IYO SKY, Naomi, and Bayley.
Much was made of Jax’s performance in the match, especially when she delivered slow chairshots that looked far from painful. When a fan suggested on X that Jax seemed afraid to hurt her opponents, the reigning WWE Women’s Champion responded.
Jax earned a reputation during her first run with WWE as someone who injured opponents, which greatly affected the Irresistible Force. Jax has said that after her release from WWE in 2021, she felt like she deserved it based on what fans said about her online. Jax would make a one-off return in the 2023 Women’s Royal Rumble match and return to the promotion in full later that same year.
With Survivor Series: WarGames out of the way, Jax’s attention will turn back towards her Women’s Championship and her potential challengers. With Tiffany Stratton teasing a cash-in during the Women’s WarGames match, Jax will need to keep her eyes peeled for a potential betrayal by her ‘friend’ as well as a challenge from the stacked roster on SmackDown.
