Nia Jax says winning Queen Of The Ring was harder than winning the WWE Women's Championship.
At WWE King And Queen Of The Ring back in May, Nia Jax faced off with Lyra Valkyria in the finals of the Queen Of The Ring tournment, defeating Naomi, Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair to reach the final stage of the tournament. Nia would end up winning the entire tournament, going on to defeat Bayley for the WWE Women's Championship at SummerSlam.
While speaking to Screen Rant Plus in a recent interview, Jax was asked which was a harder fight between winning Queen Of The Ring and winning the WWE Women's Championship, with the champion noting that winning Queen Of The Ring was the harder accomplishment to achieve.
"You know, the Queen of the Ring was, to me, because it was a tournament and it was, there's so many brackets and you got to, I had to face so many different competitors, like incredible. I got Naomi, Jade, Cargill, Bianca Belair, Lyra Valkyria. I mean, these are just like, these are top tier women in the division. So that was definitely a difficult phase to go through, but being able to get in the ring with Bayley, who is a seasoned veteran who knows how to work, who I've lost to her more than I've beaten her in my career definitely tasted a little bit better, let's put it that way." she said.
Jax will team with Tiffany Stratton to take on Naomi and Bayley on this Friday's SmackDown with two stipulations in play. You can read more about that here.
