10 Most Effective Heel Heat Magnets In Wrestling Today
9. Nia Jax
Botches aren't cool. When people get hurt, it shouldn't be worn with pride. In the case of Nia Jax, however, and following those ghastly incidents with Kairi Sane, the 'go away' heat it attracted has since turned into something a little more workable.
During her recent pairing with Shayna Baszler, Baszler (who refuses to be anything other than awesome) stated that Nia Jax sucks whilst standing right beside her. It was hilarious, and a real read-between-the-lines moment. That is Jax's career in a nutshell at present.
As she is entrenched in a destructive foursome of female baddies, (Baszler, Bayley, and Sasha Banks) it's clear that her push in the roaster has snowballed. It's also clear, given the kayfabe fine for her in-ring misconduct, and her resulting backstage response (see the above pic) that this level of revelling in circumstance comes alarmingly naturally.
Like it or not, Nia has taken all heat thrown at her and used it to her advantage. When a wrestler is flipping off the photographer and smiling, you know that the momentum has shifted... in their favour.
