Nia Jax Discusses Her Recent WWE Absence

The Mirror has an interview with Nia Jax and RAW Women's Champion Alexa Bliss to promote the new season of Total Divas. Below are some highlights from Nia:

Did you both expect to make such an impact in such a short space of time on the main roster?

"Yeah we didn't think that, we didn't think it would come this far. Lex [Alexa] is just a shooting star right now, it's crazy. She is on fire. We didn't expect that in NXT at all. It's very humbling and we're honoured. Hopefully it continues."

During the time this has been filmed Nia you've had some time away from the ring, I believe to rest and heal from an injury, but it has still been a very impressive six months for you, with dominant performances on Raw and at pay-per-view.

"Thank you. Well actually I had live events off for the last couple of weeks because that's just how it worked out, for cycling and stuff, so I got a little rest from TV because I wasn't in anything storyline-wise, so I had a little rest there. But yeah, it's been great. I love what we do, I love the storytelling, especially being such a different character and obviously a different size than everybody, we get to play on that and it's always cool to see where we can go in the ring."

Do you think fans will get to see a different side to you then on Total Divas?

"Yes, definitely. They will definitely see something completely different. On Raw I'm the big mean girl who goes and beats everybody up, on Total Divas they will see a softer vulnerable side of me that definitely isn't see on Raw. And some very goofy stuff between Alexa and I. Team Rude is definitely in full effect."

Also in the interview, Alexa and Nia talked about joining the cast of Total Divas, when they were informed that they were joining the cast, The Survivor Series, and Alexa discussed her feud with Mickie James. You can check out the full interview by clicking here.
