#5 WWE Superstar Nia Jax takes a shot at her family

WWE Superstar Nia Jax recently took a shot at her family on Twitter. She belongs to the iconic Anoa'i family, which has given the pro wrestling business many superstars across generations. However, Jax stated that she stopped expecting anything from her family long back. Instead, she is determined to create her own path in WWE. Here’s what she tweeted:

“I stopped trying to gain any approval from the family a long time ago; I realized it was pointless. The only one I thought I could count on is Tamina. I was wrong. My partner Shayna Baszler has been there more for me in this business than my family has. That’s the truth! F*ck this family shit! “They say blood is thicker than water”, but I remember plenty of times when water was there & blood wasn’t!”

Nia Jax is currently the reigning Women’s Tag Team Champion alongside Shayna Baszler. Natalya pinned the latter on last week's episode of WWE SmackDown.

Jax and Baszler could soon have to defend their tag team titles against Natalya and Tamina. The champions successfully defended their tag team gold when the two WWE teams last met at WrestleMania 37.
