As seen during the 2023 Royal Rumble PLE, Nia Jax made her return to WWE after being gone from the company since November of 2021.

During a virtual signing with the Highspots Superstore, Nia Jax was asked if she had a “month” to prepare for the women’s Royal Rumble match. Nia replied with “no I did not” and added that her gear was “very quickly rushed” to be made in time for the event.

Nia’s status with WWE remains unclear. WWE created a new t-shirt for Nia but she’s still listed as “alumni” on the comapny’s official website. Nia currently has appearances scheduled under her real name Lina Fanene for March 10th and 11th.
