3. Nia Jax Transitioning Into A Babyface

The women’s division on Monday night has been gaining momentum as of late, but not many superstars have been gaining as much momentum as Nia Jax.  The Irresistible Force has been proving herself lately and has proven she can hang with the undefeated Empress Of Tomorrow, Asuka.

Jax has narrowly lost to Asuka a couple times in recent weeks and she would get another shot at Asuka last night.  The two put on another solid match, although it wasn’t as good as their Elimination Chamber clash, but The Empress Of Tomorrow made Jax tap out after Jax held off from tapping as long as she possibly could.

After the match, Jax got a babyface-like reaction from the crowd after her performance.  This signaled a possible changing of the guard in terms of her character, but it would take another big turn later in the night.  When Jax was backstage, Alexa Bliss approached her to give her a pep talk of sorts that turned out to do more harm than good for The Irresistible Force.

Bliss basically passive-aggressively took personal shots at Jax to the point where she began crying that she wouldn’t be on the card at WrestleMania.  It seems all but a certainty that Jax will be a babyface moving forward and could likely be headed for a Raw Women’s Championship match with Bliss at WrestleMania 34, especially if Asuka decides to challenge SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair, which has been rumored as of late.

The Irresistible Force turning babyface should lead to the biggest match of her career up to this point on the grandest stage of them all.
