WWE: 3 opponents for Nia Jax to face upon her return
Becky Lynch
Do we remember how “The Man” gimmick started? It was the image of Becky Lynch posing at the top of the ramp with blood on her face. That blood came from a Nia Jax elbow to the face.
This feud puts Jax in a sink or swim position the second she returns to WWE programming.
Verbally, Lynch can hold her own with anyone on the WWE roster. Jax has not shown the ability to go back and forth with someone verbally; Lynch would be the litmus test to determine where Jax is promo wise.
Jax could return on RAW and destroy local competitors, to the point where they have to be stretched out of the ring. WWE builds on the theme that Jax is unsafe and dangerous in the ring. The feud can begin when Lynch comes out determined to stand up to Jax on behalf of the rest of women’s wrestling.
Jax can promote herself as someone who hurt Becky once, and would love the opportunity to hurt Lynch again. In order for this feud to reach its potential Jax has to be portrayed as a remorseless monster similar to when Vader debuted for WWE. Lynch has shown her ability to get the most out of her opponents.
A feud with Jax will add more to the fan favorite Lynch character who stands up for what is wrong in women’s wrestling. It will also cement Jax as a major player in the women’s division.
