Natalya Comments On Nia Jax's Potential WWE Return, Says She Seemed Really Happy At Royal Rumble

Natalya comments on the possibility of Nia Jax returning to WWE.

After making a surprise appearance during the Women's Royal Rumble match in January, Nia Jax has been on the radar of many WWE fans, as some are expecting her to return to the company in a full-time capacity. Jax stated in April that she had caught the wrestling bug after her Royal Rumble appearance, and recently stated that she's still training and that she doesn't have a answer about a potential return.

In a new interview with Sportskeeda, Natalya was asked to comment on the potential of Jax returning to the company.

“When I think about Nia Jax, she had such a great showing at this past Royal Rumble and so I think, she had a hiatus. Nobody ever wants to get let go from WWE and I remember when all of that happened, it was just a chaotic time in the world kind of during the height of the pandemic, but to see her wanting to get back into wrestling, wanting to get back to where it all began for her — Seeing her at the Royal Rumble, she seemed really happy, she seemed like she was in a great place and it made me happy for her because WWE, we are like a big family and when she left WWE, there was a lot of like — I think she did feel sad because she missed a lot of her friends and she loved performing and loving being able to do that. So if it’s something that she wants to do and she’s got the wrestling itch again, I think the Royal Rumble kind of gave her the wrestling itch a little bit.”

Before Jax was released from WWE, her and Natalya had a number of singles and tag bouts on television and at various live events.

Natalya recently predicted that The Bloodline will be friends again after they fight it out. Fans can learn more about her comments by clicking here.
