One of the main consequences Nia Jax might face for her actions could be being buried on TV in the coming weeks. This includes getting poor bookings on WWE SmackDown and suffering quick losses in matches. With this poor booking, the Triple H creative team can punish Jax for her actions.

Over the past few months, fans have seen many instances where Nia has been involved in title feuds. However, after this incident, she might be taken out of the championship scene for a long time.

#2. Off television immediately

Fans are already expressing their displeasure over Nia Jax's actions on social media platforms. Many have even started demanding Jax's release from the Stamford-based promotion, as this wasn't her first time injuring a star with a botch move. In the past, Becky Lynch was also a victim of such an incident.

Considering the aggressive heat against The Irresistible Force, WWE may choose to write her off television immediately. Later, the King of the Kings might bring the former Women's Champion back to the blue brand when the anger among the audience dies down.

This could happen when Nick Aldis, in the upcoming episode of WWE SmackDown, suspends Nia for her actions as part of the storyline.


#1. Could go back to the WWE NXT brand

Nia Jax injuring Jade Cargill with the botched move could also lead to her demotion within the sports entertainment juggernaut, as The Game might move her back to the NXT brand. Putting Jax to the black and silver brand will give her time to practice and work on her performance.

Not only was Jax's injury angle against Jade Cargill, but her failed attempt to kick out of a pinfall by Tiffany Stratton also resulted in a major botch on the blue brand. All this shows that the 41-year-old star needs time to sharpen her wrestling moves and skills, and sending her back to NXT could be a great choice.
