WWE SmackDown: 5 Backstage rumors that could have a major impact - WM36 Championship match changed to triple-threat, Another Superstar gets 'Brock Lesnar type' deal (13th March)

#3 Nia Jax to return on SmackDown

The former RAW Women's Champion Nia Jax has been out of action since WrestleMania 35. Jax had to undergo a double knee surgery which is the reason for the Unstoppable Force's absence from WWE.

While Nia Jax was a RAW Superstar ahead of her injury, there are reports stating that she will be returning to SmackDown this week. Not just that, there is also speculation that Paige (who is set to make an appearance on SmackDown) might be Jax's new manager.

Here is what PWInsider had stated:

The word making the rounds at Raw last night was that Nia would be part of the SmackDown brand when she returned and that she would be at this week's TV taping."

Nia Jax has been very active on social media, hinting at a return soon. Paige had previously told Sportskeeda's Gary Cassidy that she would be open to the idea of forming a 'team' with Nia Jax.

"I'm going to be a little bit biased towards Nia Jax. I love her as a person but I feel also like we'd be a really good team!"
