Nia Jax snaps back at fellow WWE SmackDown star, tells her to “shut up”

WWE Superstar Nia Jax is one of the most dominant women on the roster. The Irresistible Force recently shared a social media update, telling fellow SmackDown Superstar Naomi to 'shut up.'

The WWE Women's Champion recently sat down for an interview with Cathy Kelley. The backstage interviewer stated that Jax could arguably be the most hated woman in the locker room. In response, the 40-year-old stayed in character and claimed she was not in the business for her feelings but to be the best.

Nia Jax's arch-rival Naomi recently took to Instagram Stories to reshare a clip of the interview posted by WWE to fire shots at the Women's Champion. The latter, however, reshared The Glow's Instagram Story and told her to 'Shut up.'

Nia Jax reflects on her time away from WWE

Nia was released from the Stamford-based company in November 2021. After being away from the wrestling promotion for over a year, she returned in the 2023 Women's Royal Rumble Match. Later the same year, Jax made her full-time return in September.

While speaking to Cathy Kelley, Nia opened up about her time away from WWE, referring to her departure from the company as the best thing to ever happen to her. She pointed out how time away from wrestling helped her rediscover herself.

"It was probably the best thing that ever happened to me. At first, yes, it was difficult to sit there and realize that I won't be out there entertaining everybody, on the road and enjoying the travels. It actually helped restore my passion and love for wrestling. I felt like I was starting to lose a little bit of the 'why?' I tell people all the time it was one of the best things that happened to me. I felt like I reset Nia Jax. Now, I'm the best Nia Jax ever. I'm only getting better. I needed to take that little bit of time off and find myself again," she said. [H/T Fightful]
