Nia Jax Rumored To Be Out Due To A Back Injury

– According to Pwinsider.com (via sportskeeda.com), Nia Jax may be off of TV due to suffering a back injury. There have been conflicting reports in regards to Jax, one report said that she was frustrated with her position in the company including not getting a match with Asuka at WWE TLC. Then there were reports that she took a leave of absence, which WWE denied. And then reports of a leave of absence were said to be overblown, and that Jax is simply resting up until the European tour, which begins on November 1st.

Jax hasn’t been on Raw since her October 2nd match with Mickie James. Alexa Bliss recently spoke about Jax’s time off, stating the following…

“We have talked about it a lot. Whatever she is going through, I wouldn’t necessarily call it a leave of absence. She’s taking some time off because our schedule it very grueling. It’s very, very demanding. There are times where you are run down and your body can’t do it anymore and you get sick or you get injured from it and you get tired.”

Jax posted the following on Twitter, during last night’s TLC PPV…
