During a recent interview with Insight With Chris Van Vliet, former WWE Women’s Champion Nia Jax discussed one of her most viral career moments, recalling when she yelled out “My hole!” during a match against CJ Perry (aka Lana) on WWE Raw several years ago. Below are some highlights:
Nia Jax on Her Viral ‘My Hole’ Moments
“So it was a table match with Lana. And I don’t know if you remember, but during that time, I kept putting her through the table, nine times. I put her through the table nine times. Then we thought we’re gonna have her redemption moment at Survivor Series, but it didn’t happen. So then we ended up having this table match, and when we were rehearsing it, it was suggested that I do a leg drop on the apron. I was like, Oh my gosh, that will bust my tailbone. Then I was like, ‘What about my hole?’ Just as a joke. I remember saying it to Hunter and being like, you know, my hole, before the show, and he was like, ‘Yeah, that’d be funny.’
“Because it was COVID, there was nobody in the audience, so you could clearly hear everything people were saying in there. And me, personally, it was like, I’m gonna say it just to pop everybody in the back, Vince and all them, as a joke, and Hunter, because he knew. We were joking about it before. So yeah, I did it, and it was like, ‘My hole!’ Then I literally was just like, This is gonna be hilarious for us, right? And then it was trending everywhere. By the time I got to the back, I was like, What the f? I thought I was in trouble. I was like, ‘I’m like, sorry.’ And they’re like, oh my gosh, this is great. They actually had a shirt made. There was gonna be ‘My hole’ shirt. The first time I ever got real merch. I don’t know what happened, literally, it was about to be printed out and sold, because it was trending for a few days.”
On If a Shirt With the Phrase Got Released
“It would have been a big, big deal. It would have been a huge hole.”
Nia Jax last competed at the WWE Royal Rumble 2026 over the weekend in the women’s Rumble match. She entered at No. 4 and was later eliminated by Charlotte Flair.
