Nia Jax is out of WWE for an indefinite amount of time as the star is set for surgery 

WWE superstar Nia Jax has suffered a big blow to her elbow in this week’s Monday Night Raw and is out for an indefinite amount of time, as stated by Kayla Braxton on The Bump.

Jax went up against WWE star Shayna Baszler in this week’s Raw, where Shayna defeated her. The longtime partners, who were also former WWE Tag Team Champions, squared off against each other.

According to The Bump, as mentioned by Kayla Braxton that WWE medical has stated that Nia Jax will be undergoing surgery after suffering a posterior elbow fracture and a dislocation of her left elbow. 

She will be out of WWE for an indefinite amount of time.

The match started quite intensely, but The Queen of Spades stomped her authority on Jax with the Kirifuda Clutch. She got the victory via a referee stoppage.

Even after the stoppage, Jax was beaten further by her former tag-team partner, as Baszler stomped her hand and wrist in the steel steps. She stomped on her bent arm, which might have dislocated the elbow.

WWE might be speculating this Nia Jax injury as a story segment 

Nia Jax got injured badly as she screamed in pain after getting stomped by Baszler in the bent arm. It was seen that she was carried out of the ring by the officials with one hand lift.

But this might be speculation from WWE to build up a story segment for the show as there is no confirmation yet of the legitimacy of the injury. 

We will have to wait and see how things turn out for Jax and how she makes a comeback against her former tag-team mate.
