Update on Why Nia Jax Has Been Absent From WWE TV
For those wondering about the whereabouts of Nia Jax, word is she is not injured, and is off WWE TV because WWE currently has no creative plans for her in place. At the moment, WWE is focusing on the Bayley vs Alexa Bliss story line, and rebuilding Sasha Banks with her current angle featuring Rich Swann, Noam Dar and Alicia Fox.
As we noted earlier today, Nia Jax seemed to vent her frustration with the current booking of the women’s division on Raw when she Tweeted the following:
Wow! First ever Money in the Bank Women’s Ladder Match! Amazing how #SmackdownLive uses their ENTIRE women roster every Tuesday!

The photo recently surfaced online, leading a Twitter user to ask WWE star Big E about its origins. The New Day member explained that the photo, which also features Seth Rollins, Adam Rose and Bo Dallas, was for a planned NXT season that never happened.
