During a title defense, Ripley, the Women’s World Heavyweight Champion, escalated her feud with Jax in a surprising manner, leaving the audience both shocked and amused.
At a recent non-televised event, spectators witnessed Ripley successfully flooring Jax, despite the latter’s larger stature, marking a pivotal moment in their ongoing rivalry.
However, the unexpected twist came next. Following the pinning of Jax against the ring corner, the Aussie sensation decided to further humiliate her opponent by shaking her bum in Jax’s face.
This particular move, known as the “stinkface,” rose to prominence in the early 2000s, largely attributed to the towering figure of Rikishi, with his sumo-wrestler-like presence.
Since then, a few female wrestlers have utilized this move, and the reasons behind its popularity are quite evident.
On social media, fans openly expressed their jealousy, imagining themselves in Jax’s place during that memorable incident.
One fan couldn’t hide their envy, exclaiming, “Never wanted to be Nia Jax more in my entire life…”
Another fan showed appreciation to the cameraman for capturing such a moment, saying, “Thank you to the cameraman for your service of this exquisite video.”
A third chimed in with, “Nia just lived most men and women’s dreams.”
While a fourth said, “It should’ve been me.”
Payback’s a peach. You’re welcome Nia!

The response on Twitter/X also emphasized Nia’s shift from astonishment to embarrassment following the incident in the ring.
Ripley has a history of stirring up attention among her fans. Just last year, she captivated audiences with a series of revealing Instagram photos, clad only in a black bodysuit.
Looking forward, Ripley is preparing for a significant clash with Irish superstar Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 40 in just two weeks.
Her rapid ascent to becoming one of WWE’s most revered female wrestlers in a mere five years hasn’t gone unnoticed.
WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus couldn’t resist praising Ripley in a recent interview with Fightful.
“She’s in a whole other league,” Stratus remarked.
“She brings so much and people love to hate her. When you’re a bad guy, but the crowd is loving you so much that they want to cheer you, that’s a special thing.”
“She definitely has that je ne sais quoi. She’s worked really hard to be where she is right now and she’s on a great journey.”
“Her trajectory has been really fun to watch and I was able to see it first-hand
