In an explosive moment on WWE RAW, Shayna Baszler viciously attacked Nia Jax following their match, where she utilized the steel steps to injure her former tag team partner. While many thought it was only a matter of time before Jax would get retaliation, we now know that’s not the case.
This morning on WWE’s The Bump, it was announced that Nia Jax suffered an elbow posterior fracture and dislocation of her left elbow. It was also revealed that this injury would require surgery and that Jax would be out for an undisclosed amount of time.
Following the angle on RAW, most members of the WWE Universe assumed this was the start of a storyline between Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler, but it was actually done to write Jax off WWE television for the time being. How long she’ll be out right now is uncertain, but one would imagine that the feud between Jax and Baszler will continue when she returns.
