Nia Jax Discusses Her WWE Comeback and Future Aspirations

NEW ORLEANS, La. — Nia Jax, a prominent figure in WWE‘s women’s division, has expressed her renewed confidence and plans for the future following a successful 2024. Known for her transformation since returning to the company in 2023, Jax’s journey has sparked interest among fans and commentators alike. With a remarkable record, including nine eliminations at the recent Royal Rumble, she reflects on her career and ongoing ambitions.

In a candid interview, Jax shared insights into her impressive run, which included winning the Women’s Championship and becoming the Queen of the Ring last year. “I focused on myself, and got rid of the outside noise,” Jax explained about her newfound focus and mental clarity. “I wanted to make sure that I am the best version of myself, health-wise and mentally.”

Jax has adopted an intermittent fasting approach to maintain her diet while on the road, finding it beneficial for her energy levels and sleep quality. She remarked, “Everyone has their own way. I find that to be more helpful to me.”

The wrestler also discussed her storytelling collaboration with fellow performer Tiffany Stratton. “It was a nice slow burn,” Jax said, acknowledging how the women’s division has benefitted from deeper storylines. “I’m honored that me and Tiffy have been able to portray a really good story the fans have loved. Obviously, she betrayed me, and I still have to get my lick back.”

On navigating the challenges of social media as a heel character, Jax emphasized the importance of her support system. “I’m actually really blessed with a really strong family who have my back. I never put too much weight into what other people say about me,” she stated. Jax noted that criticisms are part of her role and that she embraces this character. “They want to hate on Nia Jax. That’s fine because it’s a role I’m in and I embrace it,” she said.

Addressing her goals for the future, Jax is eager to reclaim her title from Stratton. “I definitely want to try to get my title back against Tiffy. I would also love to go back in the tag division and get those tag titles back,” she mentioned. Reflecting on her previous tag team reign with Shayna Baszler during the COVID-19 era, Jax expressed a desire to reunite with her former partner, even though she is currently involved with another faction.

Jax also weighed in on the potential for intergender matches in WWE, especially with the introduction of such matches in the upcoming “WWE 2K25” video game. “Why not? Of course. The world of WWE is anything is possible. I loved getting in the ring with the men and tussling with them,” she said confidently.

As Jax continues to develop her character and pursue her objectives, she remains a captivating presence in WWE. Fans look forward to seeing how her plans unfold as the wrestling landscape evolves.

WWE fans can catch Jax in action on shows like WWE Raw and SmackDown, along with upcoming events like WWE Elimination Chamber on March 1.
