Has Nia reacted to the backlash on this yet? I haven’t seen anything, which is unusual.

I don't get it. At all. It's kind of a small horse, I mean what am I missing? Am I crazy?

Nia's just had too many of these incidents where you can give her the benefit of the doubt anymore. She doesn't know her own strength and how to control it for spots. It's lead to several women getting hurt and sometimes missing ket significant time like Becky at the peak rise of her push. And it almost lead to severe injury in other placed like that Charlotte match. I don't think it's intentional, I just think Nia has no clue how to safely work, especially with smaller wrestlers, period. I don't know if there's anything that can be done about it either, as said, Nia is 36, she's coming off some severe injuries herself. It might be a matter of making a decision or waiting for something even worse to happen if she keeps working this stiff and sloppy. I know RAW doesn't have an abundance of women right now, but if I'm them, I'm having Asuka shelf her for a bit and at least TRY and fix these issues, because if it can't be fixed, I don't think you can keep risking these injuries. And if I'm Sane, if they ever book me in a match with Nia again, I'm requesting my release. Yeah, I don't think it's intentional and I even think she's trying.....she's just really really not good.

If this wasn’t intentional, Kairi has some serious bad luck when it comes to facing Nia, and Nia seriously needs to be sent back to either the PC or NXT
If this was intentional, Nia did this to not only someone who is, by all accounts, a total sweetheart, she also did this to one of Asuka’s best friends. And by that account, I would not wanna be Nia right now.

Wait a minute. I thought this was about when Nia threw Kari into the turnbuckles a few weeks ago. I was just reading the locked thread from a few days ago and didn't realize this is now the SECOND TIME Nia has injured Kari!!! Do something with this talentless scrub ASAP! I don't care who she's related to, unsafe is unsafe!

Nia is very bad at wrestling.

I don't think this is intentional. She's just not good and Kairi Sane isn't the only victim of her recklessness.

Get Nia the hell off my TV after Backlash. I get that she's not like most girls and all, but I'm sick of her being rewarded for being reckless while other, more deserving women are cast aside.

Here's the thing. When you're the giant on a roster, any roster, you're going to be working with people much smaller than you who aren't nearly as strong as you are. You need to become cognizant of how much strength it is you actually possess, and control it accordingly. Look at Andre The Giant and how indescribably powerful he was. If he didn't make the effort to understand his own strength, he could've killed most of the people he stepped in the ring with. But ask anyone he ever worked with and a lot of them would say it was like working with a big teddy bear. That's the mark of a true professional.
Nia...I don't know what's going on. Is she still *that* green? Is she being blatantly careless and reckless? I certainly hope it's not the latter, but I just honestly don't know. But you can't be doing that with that sort of size differential. So either cut the power spots where her opponents aren't directly in control of their own body, or...I don't know. But this most assuredly needs to be addressed.

She didn’t even look like she was trying to guide her. Kairi clearly doesn’t have her footing and Nia just threw her face first.

Nia should've been fired years ago. She brings nothing to to the table and is a legitimate liability in the ring. Keep her as an interviewer or body positivity spokesperson or in some backstage sinecure if you really, really don't wanna piss off The Rock. Just get her the hell out of the ring.

At this point, Nia should only wrestle herself in a mirror match like in MK1.

Jessamyn Duke looked like she wanted to jump the barrier.

How much longer do we need to put up with seeing this crap? Does societal pressure still work?
Nia is getting dangerously close to ending someone's career.

Jessamyn Duke looked like she wanted to jump the barrier. Yeah, pretty sure she’s already got issues with Nia due to what she’s said about Ronda’s in-ring skill. And seeing this firsthand didn’t help in that regard.

And seeing this firsthand didn’t help in that regard. I'm not advocating for anyone to hurt anyone else first off. I just wanted to say that even though Duke wasn't a good MMA fighter, she is still extremely skill and if Nia tried that shit with Duke and Duke starting shooting, Nia would be in trouble.

I think it’s got to the point now where whoever is setting out Nia Jax matches backstage really needs to pull back on any risky spots like this. She can’t be trusted to do them well, so just keep everything real simple. This should have been the case from day one with her because she’s consistently proven herself to be lazy and careless.

So I saw the pictures on either Instagram or Twitter yesterday, so I just looked at the clip tonight.
Jeez, Nia. What the hell are you doing?
She's been doing this for 5 years now. If she can't figure this shit out properly, maybe it's time to cut her.

I'm convinced she has no regard for the safety of other workers. She's going to cripple someone if this keeps up.
