Nia Jax says young girls have told her they started watching wrestling because of her

During an interview on the Battleground podcast, Nia Jax discussed the impact she has had on young fans, particularly girls who see themselves represented by her in WWE.

Nia stated the following…

“Some of these young girls come up and just be like, ‘I didn’t start watching until I saw you in the ring.’ It was really cool to see somebody like me get in there and do these incredible things on television.

That always sticks with me because we get so caught up in the daily rigmarole, like travel and matches and promos and whatnot, that you forget that you are making an impression on somebody’s life. You are being an example to somebody who might not think they can do something, and then they see what you do and it changes how they view themselves.”
