Ever since returning to WWE, Nia Jax has been a human wrecking ball, particularly in the Royal Rumble.

Queen Nia tossed nine women from the Rumble Saturday, breaking the record she held jointly with Shayna Baszler and Bianca Belair, who set the mark in 2020. Jax had eliminated eight women last year.

What’s most impressive about Jax’s run this year is how she eliminated so many women. She jettisoned Zelina Vega before even entering the ring and then would bounce five women at once as Belair, Naomi, Stephanie Vaquer, Raquel Rodriguez and Iyo Sky were fighting on the apron for survival and Nia knocked all of them to the floor in one blow. She also tossed Trish Stratus, Nikki Bella and Liv Morgan from the match before Charlotte Flair eliminated her.

There’s always a possibility that another woman could break this record in the next year or two, but only five wrestlers total have topped nine eliminations in 38 years of history: Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns, Kane, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, and Hulk Hogan.
