Nia Jax has high praise for this fellow WWE star.
In recent months, former Women’s Champion Jax has found herself in an alliance with Candice LeRae on television. Speaking in a new interview with TV Insider, Jax pointed to LeRae’s accomplishments and says her ally is one of the best women’s wrestlers in the world.
She is one of the best women’s wrestlers in the world. She doesn’t get enough flowers. I saw an opportunity to bring in one of the most talented wrestlers in the world. I thought, “Why not?” I could learn so much from her. She has given me so many pointers. I watch her work and take notes and think she is incredible.
Nia Jax Opens Up About Villainous Persona
Jax has been the subject of much online criticism in the past, and elsewhere in the interview, she spoke about coming into her own as a heel and trying not to let online reactions get to her.
It’s not easy. I’m actually really blessed with a really strong family who have my back. I never put too much weight into what other people say about me. I know who I am, and I’m very confident in who I am. I’m very loved at home. I feel as though it’s a character thing. They want to hate on Nia Jax. They want to say horrible things about Nia Jax. That’s fine because it’s a role I’m in and embrace it.
Jax also teased a reunion with a former WWE tag team partner.
Also in the interview, Nia Jax called for a surprising NXT call-up.
