Lana asks the Pope to help her against Nia Jax

Modified Dec 14, 2020 17:26 GMT

In a matter of hours, Lana will take on Nia Jax in singles competition on WWE RAW. Lana and Asuka have scored two consecutive wins over Jax and Shayna Baszler on RAW lately.

Lana is well aware of what Nia Jax is capable of doing when she is angry, and decided to seek some help from Pope Francis himself. Lana responded to a tweet put up by WWE to hype the match. She tagged the Pope and asked him for help, as can be seen in the tweet below:

Lana and Nia Jax aren't strangers to each other

Lana's bad patch started several weeks ago when Nia Jax hit a Samoan Drop on her, and put her through the announcer's table in the process. Not many had imagined that Jax would do the same, every week, over the next two months. Jax put Lana through a table on nine occasions.

Here's hoping Lana comes out of the match in one piece, as she is set to team up with Asuka to take on Jax and Baszler for the Women's Tag Team titles at TLC 2020.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
