WWE star Nia Jax appeared on the No-Contest Wrestling podcast to discuss a number of topics, including which top WWE stars have had the biggest impact on her career.
Jax said, “I’m gonna say first off it’s gonna be Tamina Snuka. She doesn’t get the flowers she deserves, but that woman backstage is a pillar, a rock to so many of us. We call her Mama Bear because she is just a true Mama Bear. She’s kept me up when I need to stay up, positive when I was trying to be negative, hydrated when I was hungover [laughs]. I call her my sister because she’s truly a sister, and she has kept me on the up and up. Even when I wasn’t in the company for a little bit when nobody else was.”
On how much Charlotte Flair has helped her:
“Charlotte Flair, she’s helped me a lot. She’s a fitness guru, and when I was going through my fitness journey, she was there for me. Naomi, Naomi has got a heart of gold. She’s a gem, a diamond in the rough that people don’t realize. I put her on such a pedestal. I could list off, I have Bayley, Rey Mysterio, Randy Orton, Sheamus is a good, solid buddy of mine, Drew McIntyre, The Usos, Roman. There’s so many people, especially backstage. We’re a family back there. We’re with each other so many days out of the year that we haven’t to be supportive because at the end of the day, 90 percent of the time, we’re traveling, and we’re in hotels and airplanes and cars. We have to have each other’s back, so there’s a lot of people. I have support in all aspects in this wrestling business, and I’m very blessed.”
