10 WWE Superstars Set For A Big Push Following WrestleMania 36
6. Nia Jax
'The Irresistible Force' underwent major knee surgery shortly after WrestleMania 35, having torn both ACLs prior to the event. Initial projections had her returning in Q1 2020 but while there were a lot of rumours about Jax re-emerging in the Royal Rumble, that never came to pass.
More than two further months passed before Nia returned to television. Blasting back on last night's post-WrestleMania Raw, she made quick work of NXT's Deonna Purrazzo in a momentum-boosting squash, finishing her overmatched foe with a passed-down version of Paige's old RamPage finisher. She's back in the ring, back in the mix, and back on the radar.
What benefits Jax is that Becky Lynch has effectively cleared out her division after WrestleMania 36. 'The Man' could rematch with Shayna Baszler, though there are conflicting reports on what lies in Lynch's immediate future at the moment. With the announcers framer Nia as a disruptor and putting over everything that has changed in her absence, it certainly sounds like WWE has big things in mind for her, so let's see how they transpire.
Regardless, expect Jax to make major title scene inroads before long.
