After her last performance in NXT in 2021, Nia Jax was not much engaged in NXT, keeping herself out of the NXT Ring, while she was occasionally seen on Raw and Rumble.
Following her absence for a long time in the NXT Ring, Nia Jax made a surprise appearance in the previous week’s NXT Event.
On 29 July 2025, NXT, the former WWE aggressive queen Nia Jax, attacked Lash Legend when she was fighting in a single match with Henley.
After Jax attacked, Henley seized the opportunity and pinned down Lash, but Nia continued to attack Lash. After Henley left the room with victory, Nia didn’t stop attacking Lash.
Later on backstage, Nia was seen interfering with Henley and the Fatal Influence and took the camera toward her, sending a message to Lash.

Follwing up with the Nia Jax NXT return, she got her first NXT match with Thea Hail on August 5, 2025.
While she succeeded in destroying Thea with her finisher, Annihilator, a Banzai Drop, she targeted Lash after the match.
When a WWE official asked about her return to NXT Last night, she snatched up the mic and mentioned that she is the former queen and will destroy Lash. Standing in teh ring with NXT official, she said;
I imposed my will because any ring I step into is mine. Lash Legend. You’re not gonna make a name off of my back. I’m a former champion, honey. I beat champions, legends, hall of famers. What the heck have you done? You think you’re the most dominant woman in
While Nia was talking to the official in the Ring, Lash disturbed her and directly headed toward the Ring, attacking Nia.
Both the WWE Women become quite aggressive inside the ring, leaving the backstage team to stop them within teh ring.
The ongoing action between these champions had made the NXT Night quite interesting, leading to speculations about them facing off one-on-one soon.
