Sections of the WWE Universe have labeled Nia Jax “unsafe” for several years, notably in November 2018 when Becky Lynch had to miss the WWE Survivor Series pay-per-view due to the nose-breaking punch she received from Jax on WWE RAW.

The following month, Ember Moon suffered an injury while teaming with Ronda Rousey against Jax and Tamina on RAW. Moon’s husband, Matthew Palmer, wrote in a since-deleted tweet that Jax is an “unsafe moron”.

“Hope this unsafe moron doesn't hurt my wife again.”

In June 2020, the former WWE RAW Women’s Champion’s in-ring work was questioned once again when she threw Kairi Sane into a set of steel steps at ringside, causing the Japanese Superstar to suffer a nasty cut to her head (01:35 timestamp of the video above).

The Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer reported that a veteran wrestler said Jax was “100%” at fault.

“She didn't whip her, she grabbed her by the head and threw/shoved her. It was 100% Nia's fault. She never let Kairi find her balance after pulling her out of the ring, she then pushed her head down so Kairi would be unable to see and then threw her forward hard head first off balance towards the steps. Kairi has zero chance.”

Ironically, during the ninth season of Total Divas, Jax accused Carmella of being too fearful as a WWE Superstar.
