Nia Jax hilariously slips over in major WWE SmackDown botchÂ
Nia Jax became Queen of the Ring in Saudi Arabia a few weeks ago and since she has been pushed hard on WWE SmackDown. However, the star suffered a hilarious botch on the latest episode of SmackDown.
This week she was part of a backstage segment with Tiffany Stratton, who pitched that the two women join forces before she was interrupted by Mia Yim. The former TNA Knockouts Champion has been targeting Jax in recent weeks and after The Queen told her she should retire like AJ Styles, she responded by throwing a drink in her face.
This would later become a real issue since Jax then turned around and slipped over in the drink, which meant that she was unable to continue the brawl with Yim for several seconds, as she tried to get back to her feet.
Luckily, Jax wasn't injured as part of the botch and was then able to get up and continue the planned spot with Yim, who is expected to be part of a feud with her moving forward.
Yim has also most recently been seen on NXT after being underutilized on WWE SmackDown but now that there are several storylines running side by side heading into SummerSlam. It remains to be seen what else is in store for the women on the blue brand.
