Nia Jax got a lot of heat last year after she concussed Becky Lynch with a legitimate punch, forcing her to pull out of Survivor Series against Ronda Rousey. However, in hindsight, that accident would end up having a ripple effect that led to Becky Lynch main eventing WrestleMania and walking out as the double champion.

What people didn't know was that for a good part of 2018 and 2019, Nia Jax was pushing through injuries herself, with her knees reportedly not being in the best condition. A little after WrestleMania, Nia Jax confirmed on Twitter that she would be getting ACL surgery for both of her knees.

She posted an update about it on Twitter as well. ACL surgeries usually result in 6-9 months of action being missed, which makes it clear that Jax won't be returning until early 2019 at the least.
