5 Current WWE Superstars and their real places of birth

#1. WWE Superstar Nia Jax

Nia Jax was not born in the United States

Whenever she walks to the ring, WWE Superstar Nia Jax is billed from San Diego, California. However, she was born far away from there.

Jax was born in Sydney, Australia. A few years later, she moved to Hawaii alongside her parents. The 37-year-old then moved to California, where she went to high school and college.

The Irresistible Force comes from the famous Samoan Anoa'i family. Her cousins include The Rock, Roman Reigns and The Usos. Jax has been in WWE since 2014 and has had several accomplishments. The 37-year-old is a former RAW Women's Champion and two-time WWE Women's Tag Team Champion.

Jax and her partner Shayna Baszler lost their Women's Tag Team Championships to Natalya and Tamina on SmackDown last May. Since then, they have tried to recapture the titles, but to no avail.

The Irresistible Force suffered a defeat against Rhea Ripley last Monday on RAW. Following the match, Jax got into a heated argument with Baszler. As Baszler left the ring, Ripley attacked Jax again, making a statement before facing Charlotte Flair and Nikki A.S.H at SummerSlam for the RAW Women's Title.
