This week’s Monday Night Raw was quite a way to end Vince McMahon’s era in WWE. On the last show before Endeavor acquires WWE, Rhea Ripley and Raquel Rodriguez headlined the night. Both women pulled out all the stops to deliver a hard-hitting slugfest. However, during the closing moments of their bout, a menacing figure showed up, and that was Nia Jax. The Irresistible Force made her shocking return to WWE.
She didn’t waste time doing poetry in motion as Jax quickly dragged Rodriguez out of the ring. Then, fans witnessed the carnage at ringside as Nia planted Raquel with an earth-shattering Samoan Drop. That helped Mami gain an advantage as she beat Raquel Rodriguez following a Riptide. However, before celebrating much, The Eradicator met her fate as Nia Jax obliterated the Women’s World Champion too.
And just like that, the 39-year-old stood tall as RAW went off-air. Now, it might take a while for the fans to decipher the purpose behind bringing Jax back into WWE. She had a bad reputation backstage before her release. However, only the people in charge would know what transpired in the meantime that led to the comeback of the former Women’s Champion.
As expected, social media flooded with a string of negative reactions following Raw. Shortly after last night’s episode concluded, Sean Ross Sapp provided some further details on Nia Jax. According to him on X, WWE signed the Sydney-born wrestler for a month.
Moreover, the post mentioned that Jax was the first name signed under a WWE contract since Vince McMahon returned to the top hierarchy. Despite most of the fanbase being upset, Nia Jax’s return has sparked widespread discussion.

Did Rhea Ripley finally met her match on Raw?
The way Monday Night Raw ended last night, it’s clear as daylight what the returning superstar wants. Nia made her intentions crystal clear, as she now yearns for a crack at Rhea Ripley’s title. Since Raquel Rodriguez was also sacrificed in the mix, WWE could run a three-way program between these women.
With Fastlane being the next PLE stop, fans might expect a triple-threat showdown. The last time Jax battled Ripley on Monday Night Raw in 2021, Ripley left the Annihilator busted open. It’s about time they ran it back imminently in what could turn out to be a spectacle.
Due to their intimidating physiques, Nia Jax and Rhea Ripley might catch eyeballs whenever they collide. Earlier this year, The Irresistible Force expressed during an interview how she’d love to have a match with The Judgment Day’s undisputed leader.
