Nia Jax has provided an update to the possibility of returning to in-ring competition. Jax, now going by her real name of Lina Fanene, confirmed to fans who did not know that Lina is in fact her real name, and not a new ring name. However, at the end of the tweet, the former Nia Jax has stated that wrestling again is doubtful:

Lol! 😂 Newflash..Lina is my real name. It’s not another “ring” name. It’s just MY NAME, the name given to me at birth. Calm TF down trolls. In all fairness, “Opponent Crippler” would be a SOLID front runner if I ever decide to wrestle again. 🤣🙌🏽 but it’s highly unlikely

The former Raw Women’s Champion was part of the November 4th round of WWE releases. Reports had speculated that Lina Fanene was released due to her vaccination status. However, Fanene has denied these reports herself, and has stated that the reason behind the tv absence was to take care of her mental health.

As well as capturing the Raw Women’s Championship, the former Nia Jax also captured the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships two times, with both reigns being with Shayna Baszler. The final appearance on WWE tv by The Irresistible Force was on the September 20th edition of Monday Night Raw. The appearance saw the implosion of the Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler tag team, with The Queen of Spades injuring the arm of her former partner. The angle was seemingly to write Nia off of tv.
