There has only been chaos in the women’s division of Monday Night Raw ever since Nia Jax returned to the company. She attacked Raquel Rodriguez during her match against Rhea Ripley, costing her the WWE Women’s World Championship. However, Rodriguez had a throwdown with the Irresistible Force this week on Raw. That melee has led to a match between the two women next week.
Nia Jax was to kick off Monday Night Raw this week with her scheduled match against Shayna Baszler. Before the show went on air, the former tag team partners engaged in a brawl that kicked off the show. Raquel Rodriguez soon joined the ugly brawl, followed by Rhea Ripley. The four women did not hold back, and chaos soon consumed the show.
The brawl saw Shayna, Rhea, and Raquel gang up on The Annihilator, turning their attention to each other. It was later officially announced that Nia Jax would take on Raquel Rodriguez in a one-on-one match next week on Raw. The news did not sit well with the 39-year-old. In a backstage interview with Byron Saxton, Nia Jax said, “Raquel should have stayed gone. Next week she will be gone.”
Needless to say, Nia Jax has caused a lot of havoc in the last few weeks. She went on to attack superstars during their matches and now everyone wants a piece of her. Last week’s episode of Raw saw Zoey Stark, another victim of the Annihilator’s surprise attack, challenge her to a match. The 29-year-old could not accomplish what she had intended to do.

Bill Apter thinks Nia Jax will be dominated by Jade Cargill
Jade Cargill‘s recent signing with WWE has generated significant excitement among fans, although details about her creative direction remain scarce. Speculations abound regarding her highly anticipated WWE debut. Wrestling veteran and journalist Bill Apter, in his recent appearance on The Wrestling Time Machine podcast, has shared his thoughts on the matter.

He said, “She could be the first lady to slam Nia Jax to make a really big impact because she’s got that whole muscle-building thing going on, that power. And Nia Jax is destroying everybody, so if they want to bring her fairly quickly, that would be a hell of a thing.”
Jade Cargill has also named Nia Jax as one of her potential opponents in WWE. It will be interesting to see the two women face off on the main roster at some point. Will Nia suffer her first loss since her return to the hands of Jade? Only time will tell the answer to this.
