The Rock Reportedly Encouraged Raw Star Nia Jax To Walk Away From WWE

Neville recently walked out from WWE, and it doesn’t look like the issues between the two sides are going to get fixed. Neville isn’t the only star that was unhappy with the company, as recent reports suggest that Nia Jax has been unhappy as well.

Sports Illustrated is now reporting that Nia Jax balked at the idea of losing clean to Sasha Banks at the TLC pay-per-view, and that’s when she reached out to her famous cousin The Rock. According to the report, when Nia asked The Rock for advice, he encouraged her to walk away from WWE if she was unhappy.

There have been several conflicting reports on Jax’s status recently as the Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported that stories of Jax being unhappy were overblown. WWE has been downplaying reports of Nia Jax and her leave of absence from WWE, and her friend Alexa Bliss recently claimed that she’s just taking a break.

“We have talked about it a lot. Whatever she is going through, I wouldn’t necessarily call it a leave of absence. She’s taking some time off because our schedule it very grueling. It’s very, very demanding. There are times where you are run down and your body can’t do it anymore and you get sick or you get injured from it and you get tired.”

Nia Jax is expected to return to the road with WWE in November.
