Nia Jax was part of a viral moment with Rhea Ripley a few months ago. She has now responded to it.
Rhea Ripley has been involved in many viral moments throughout her career. One of the most viral came last year in March when she shared the ring with Nia Jax during a house show. During the match, The Eradicator delivered a stinkface to Jax in the corner. The clip went viral on social media, with many fans reacting to it.
During a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, Rhea opened up about the spot, stating that Nia Jax wanted to take the move. Nia responded to the clip by saying it was for research purposes.
When a fan asked her what her conclusion was, the former WWE Women's Champion replied that she needs to run more tests.
"Gonna have to run more tests."

Rhea Ripley held the Women's World Championship for 380 days in her first title reign. During this time, she didn't defend the title often, which led to self-doubt.
In a recent interview on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet, Ripley recalled her WrestleMania XL match against Becky Lynch and her high hopes for defending her title, as she hadn't competed frequently as champion.
This caused a stir online, with many fans blaming Triple H for how he booked Mami during her title reign. However, Ripley defended her boss, saying he is not to blame and that it's the fans with a bullying mentality who are at fault.
"He’s 100% not to blame. The stupid bully mentality of some people on social media is the blame. Them and the ones that think they can do our jobs better than us, even though they have no experience in this profession or experience in real life," Ripley wrote.
