WWE's Nia Jax Out Of Action For "Undisclosed Amount Of Time"
Nia is on the shelf
Sep 22, 2021
Nia Jax seemingly won't be on WWE TV for a little while.
The former Raw Women's Champion went one on one with her former tag team partner Shayna Baszler on the September 20 edition of Monday Night Raw and Baszler choked out Jax with the Kirifuda Clutch after two minutes to pick up the win.
The Queen Of Spades then continued the punishment following the match as she repeatedly stomped on Jax's arm while the limb was against the steel steps, leaving Nia screaming in pain to end the segment.
In a storyline update on WWE's The Bump, Kayla Braxton revealed Jax suffered an elbow posterior fracture and dislocation on Raw. Jax will require surgery as a result of the injury and she will be on the shelf for an undisclosed amount of time.
This will be Jax's first absence from WWE TV since she spent nine months out of action in 2019 and 2020 to undergo surgery on both her anterior cruciate ligaments.
She returned on the Raw after WrestleMania 36 and The Irresistible Force had two reigns with the Women's Tag Team Championship with Shayna Baszler before their split earlier this year.
