Nia Jax was a force to be reckoned with in WWE during her initial run with the company, but she was eventually released back in 2021. That said, hate from fans really messed her up after her release.
Nia Jax has always been a controversial figure in WWE due to her tendency of being an unsafe worker who hurt her opponents. The likes of Kairi Sane and Becky Lynch certainly come to mind in this regard.
While speaking on After the Bell this week, Jax talked about how the hateful comments from fans affected her. Nia Jax admitted that the comments messed her up in a big way after her release.
“I obviously, can’t deny, that I get a lot of hatred online. In the beginning, I thought ‘Oh this will be good. The character will keep going on.’ But at the end of the day, when you’re by yourself and you’re on your phone and you’re looking at the constant hate, hate, hate, then you’re second-guessing yourself. I’m second-guessing everything that I’ve done. ‘I need to improve, I need to do this, I need to impress them. The internet is really hating what I’m doing right now.’ And it really, really messed me up. It got me into such a sad place and when I got released I was like ‘Yeah, of course. Why not? I suck, everybody hates me. There’s no need for me to be here anymore.'”
Nia Jax also refuses to take autographs and photos for fans who are two-faced trolls. Regardless, Jax is back in the fold in WWE now and that’s all that matters to her.
