• Nia Jax Got Yelled At For Not Being Safe In The Ring

According to WWE Hall of Famer Road Warrior Animal, former RAW Women’s Champion Nia Jax got yelled at for not being safe in the ring, and that’s why she changed her in-ring style.

Below is what Animal said on Legion of RAW:

“Nia, before she got her knees operated on, was the perfect version of Nia. She’s so conscious now about not hurting anybody, because she got yelled at a lot by the company, because a lot of girls were getting hurt.

She got yelled at and her method and the way she is doing things now is different. She’s not letting loose, she’s extra cautious. I guess she hurt Kairi Sane, which was a shoot, I think she got a talking to pretty good.”
