Nia Jax Appreciation

[Captain Stud Muffin (BLM)]

She is improving at a fast pace. The difference between London and now is vast. She's green but luckily she has good workers to make her look good while also helping her improve in the ring. I do like the eyes shit they are doing with her entrance.  

She needs to get rid of that damn leg drop tho. Her back will thank her in five years time. 

[Alyce: Old Media Enthusiast]

Definitely a major improvement since her Bayley match at Takeover: London. She still needs a lot more work, but she is putting in the effort.

[Harry The Arrow was Wrong!]

She's definitely improving. She should just use the powerbomb as her finisher.

[Slanted and Enchanted]

Definite improvements being made. Her screams at the end right before getting her lights kicked out was a nice touch. Storytelling ability is also very important.

[Phil Parent]

She's working hard to the point that she's impressive for her experience level.

Rock wasn't kidding when he said she had potential and she was putting in work to be a massive star, geez. Man, one thing you can tell about that entire family, when they put in work to improve you can't say you don't see improvement. She's got something.

Obviously the known names were all great tonight, but I think it was also a real testament to the Performance Center and the current trainers. Nia, The Revival, and American Alpha all brought it.

She could be what they wanted Kharma to be.

I wasn't a fan at first but that match in London with Bayley changed my mind. Nia is getting so much better, I just wish she hadn't blown two title matches. Then again, between London and now, she has grown from a brute force type to someone that is thinking more. Bayley went back to the submission well and it didn't work and tonight Asuka tried the differing submissions and Nia was countering until Asuka's strikes finished her.

I am also glad they have someone big like her and they aren't a monster. She is a lady that is going to use her size to her advantage but can also game plan things.

It's something in the genes when you grow up around wrestling you have a talent for it. Like I said before people can complain all they want about family getting into wrestling because of family but Rock isn't bringing in nobodies.

Exactly. They're the truth.

[pegasuswarrior]

She rules and she ruled in that match. Great match tonight for both of them.

[Mozenrath]

I like her a lot and I like what she brings to the division in variety, in looks and style.

[bearned]

She is definitely getting better. She needs a bit of work still but the potential is there.

[Deleted]

She's improving. Being in the ring with women like Asuka and Bayley can only help her. I do think she needs more menacing ring attire and a better finish though.

It seems like she's been moving to the Powerbomb over recent weeks.

[lionheart21]

She's still got a ways to go, but you can clearly see that she's putting in the work and wants to improve.

The only bad move I saw Nia do last night was that pathetically weak-ass Hogan Leg Drop finisher she uses, every other move (starting with the rag-doll toss that started her domination of Asuka) was VERY impressive and I think she can be a major player in the main roster, possibly even eclipsing Chyna as the 10th Wonder of the World. I wouldn't mind putting the US title around Nia Jax the way she looked last night

Love this gif!


I'll go on record in saying Nia's my favorite woman in NXT. I just love big wrestlers, especially in division that don't have many of them.

[mrbananagrabber]

Agree with everything here. She can pick up every other girl on the roster and throw them around and make it look devastating, why is she using that crappy leg drop as a finisher?

["Gentleman" AJ Powell]

Definitely improving at a good rate. I'll echo that she needs to switch out the legdrop though.

Oh, and I think the eye zoom is kinda goofy TBH.
