Elimination Chamber will take place at Optus Stadium, Perth, Australia on 24th February where Nia Jax will face Rhea Ripley for the world title. Although this isn’t their first encounter in the squared circle, it is their first singles match. The two superstars had a series of heated segments between them as RAW GM Adam Pearce had to call security to stop the Irresistible force.

In the last episode of RAW, Rhea Ripley called out Nia Jax who did not hesitate to attack Ripley. She finished the segment with a vicious Bonzai drop on Ripley to prove her dominance. But Ripley is a tough opponent to beat one-on-one, Jax might just need some outside interference.

After a series of attacks on Rhea Ripley by Nia Jax, since her return, the two superstars will finally face off against each other at the upcoming edition of Elimination Chamber. While many would pick the odds to be in favour of Rhea Ripley, there is a slim chance that Nia Jax may edge past Mami. Here is how Nia Jax could achieve the unthinkable.

One of the biggest aids Jax could receive would be from R-Truth. Well, we know how JD McDonagh and R-Truth have stuck themselves in a comical situation where Truth has cost The Judgment Day a few matches, knowingly and unknowingly. So, will Truth impact Ripley’s match? It’s certainly plausible.

Truth actually would have reason to help Mami beat Jax as it was only a few short years ago that Jax beat up Truth and took his spot in the rumble. However, the former 24/7 champion could unknowingly distract Mami and her advocates in the ringside, giving enough opportunity to Jax to capitalise. A loss cost by Truth would be the final nail in Truth’s shenanigans and lead to future storylines featuring him and The Judgment Day.

Kayfabe aside, another aid that Jax could receive may probably come in the form of backstage politics as Jax is the cousin of The Rock. Now, since Dwayne Johnson is one of the board members of the TKO Group, he has more power to influence storylines. Given his support for Nia in the past and his insertion into Cody’s storyline, this sadly isn’t far-fetched.

But will Dwayne Johnson take that route? Well, that remains to be seen but The Rock is also surrounded by controversy after his recent faceoff against Roman Reigns at SmackDown. But as the saying goes in wrestling, never say never. You never know what the Elimination Chamber holds for Mami.
