Did The Rock Have Something To Do With Nia Jax Taking A Supposed Leave Of Absence From WWE?
New details have emerged on Nia Jax's temporary (at least, we hope so) departure from WWE television, and it turns out her cousin Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson may have had something to do with it. Check it out...
Did Nia Jax walk out of WWE on the advice of her ultra-famous cousin?
According to SI.com's Justin Barrasso, Jax took issue with having to lose a match to Sasha Banks at TLC, and decided to do something about the situation after making a phone call to none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson:
“The reason behind Nia Jax’s much-discussed ‘leave of absence’ has been uncovered, as Sports Illustrated learned that Jax balked at the idea of losing clean to Sasha Banks at TLC. She called her cousin, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, to ask for his advice, and Johnson encouraged her to walk away if she was unhappy.”
We've heard a few reports (including one from pal Alexa Bliss) that Nia Jax will definitely be back at some point, so perhaps taking her cuz's advice actually paid off.
What do you guys make of this? Sound off below.
