Former WWE worker Nia Jax has admitted she "caught the bug" for pro wrestling again after appearing as a surprise entrant in January's 30-woman Royal Rumble.

Now, Nia has told Busted Open Radio she'd love to come back and "help anybody out [she] could". Jax believes her experience would "add to the [women's] division", at least in the short-term; Nia entered as #30 in the aforementioned Rumble, but only worked for two short minutes before being eliminated by pretty much everybody else still involved in the match.

Could a full-time return be on the cards soon then?

Jax was pleasantly surprised by her return spot, and says everybody was really kind to her behind the scenes beforehand and afterwards. The rush of excitement she felt behind the curtain has Nia wondering if people would embrace a comeback.

The former Raw Women's Champion and two-time Women's Tag-Team Champ departed WWE on mutual terms in November 2021. She'd previously ruled out ever returning, and even seemed to scoff at the company's way of handling things during interviews, but the Rumble changed everything.

Don't be shocked to see Nia pop back up someday.
