Nia Jax won the Women’s Battle Royal to earn a future Women’s Title opportunity
UNIONDALE, N.Y. — Nia Jax mostly hasn’t sniffed a championship opportunity since losing the Raw Women’s Title to Alexa Bliss over the summer. Thanks to the events of WWE Evolution’s Battle Royal, that’s about to change: The Irresistible Force outlasted Superstars from WWE’s past, present and future to stand tall and claim the all-important prize of a future Women’s Title Match.
She had to get past one of her closest friends to do it, too. After a wild match that included the entire field tossing The IIconics, a dance break featuring Carmella and Ivory (who was the last veteran standing), a titanic confrontation between Nia and Tamina, and Zelina Vega nearly stealing the win by hiding until the competition had thinned, the match came down to Nia and Ember Moon, the hybrid competitor who helped bring Jax back from injury and was looking like a favorite down the stretch — especially after she eliminated her old NXT rival Asuka, a development even Ember seemed shocked by.
Tossing The Empress of Tomorrow fired up The War Goddess to world-beating levels, but she unfortunately let her emotions get the better of her against The Irresistible Force. The former NXT Women’s Champion took the fight to Nia, only to be stuffed with a spinebuster and tossed over the rope.
In a post-match interview, Nia refused to elaborate on whether she’d rather challenge Ronda Rousey or Nikki Bella for the Raw Women’s Title, but she advised neither of them to get too comfortable. It was a shockingly bold display from the former champion, though not an uncharacteristic one. We’ve known for a while that Nia Jax isn’t like most girls. After this Battle Royal, however, it might be more apt to look at it the opposite way: Maybe there’s simply no one else like her.
