#2 Nia spoke lies

Nia Jax has a big opportunity coming up at the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view. If she defeats Asuka, then she will be added as the third participant in the Raw Women's Championship Match. She took to the mic after her quick squash win to talk trash against 'The Empress of Tomorrow'.

Nia bragged about being the only woman that Asuka could not beat, which is blatantly false. First of all, Asuka is currently on an extended undefeated streak that includes her time both in NXT and on Raw. Second, Nia has faced off against Asuka. Since Asuka is still undefeated, Jax should know that the words that came out of her mouth probably did nothing to intimidate Asuka.

It would be hard to fathom that Asuka will end her undefeated streak at Elimination Chamber when WrestleMania is so close. But then again, nobody would've called Bayley winning the Raw Women's Championship last year on a random Monday night in February for the first time when they could've saved it for 'Mania, but that happened too.
