Former tag team champions Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler were pitted against each other this week on Monday Night RAW. Tensions have been boiling over between Shayna and Nia over the last few weeks, as the two women cost each other their respective matches against Charlotte Flair.
Nia Jax missed an opportunity to win the RAW Women's Championship from Charlotte when Shayna Baszler got involved, causing distraction and allowing Nia to pick up the win. The dissension came to a boil this week, when Baszler injured Jax.
Shayna Baszler brutalized Nia Jax on RAW this week
The match was full of back and forth action as The Irresistible Force met with The Queen of Spades. The two jostled for power in the initial stages of the match. The fierce action in the ring came to an end when Baszler locked in the Kirifuda Clutch on Jax for the win via submission.
However, Baszler decided to administer more punishment on her former teammate. She continued the assault on Nia by visciously stomping her arm against the ring steps.
Shayna herself seemed to be in two minds while attacking Nia Jax but continued with the assault, putting the former RAW Women's Champion out of commission for the foreseeable future.
Everyone at Sportskeeda would like to wish Nia Jax a speedy recovery and hope to see her back in action soon.
