WWE recently released multiple wrestlers from their contracts. However, one of the most shocking names on the released list was the former Raw Women’s Champion, Nia Jax, cousin of the WWE legend Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

Jax was last seen on live TV when her former tag team partner Shayna Baszler attacked her and kayfabe broke the former champ’s elbow. However, the real reason Jax was off TV was that she herself asked for a leave to take care of her mental health.

Now, pro-wrestling industry veteran Dave Meltzer recently reported that WWE had cosmic plans for Jax. However, when she rejected WWE’s plea to come back, the push was given to Duodrop.

“The Doudrop spot was probably the spot they wanted Nia Jax in. Because if you remember they wanted Nia Jax back by mid-November and when she said no that’s when they fired her and that is when the Doudrop thing started being, you know,” said Dave.
