Nia Jax calls out WWE on racism

[Breh Obama]

Former Raw women's champion Nia Jax took issue with WWE Saturday regarding a tweet about women who thrived in 2018.

WWE's tweet featured Charlotte Flair, Becky Lynch, Carmella, Ronda Rousey, Peyton Royce and Billie Kay—all of whom are white:


Jax tweeted the following in response:



While the women featured in WWE's tweet were highly successful in 2018, the company has a deep and diverse women's roster that includes the likes of Jax, Sasha Banks, Ember Moon, Alicia Fox, Tamina, Naomi, Zelina Vega and SmackDown women's champion Asuka.

Jax, who is part Samoan, beat Alexa Bliss to win the Raw women's title at WrestleMania 34 in April.

She’s just tryna ride the wave let’s be honest

 

[Norrin Radd]

I wouldn't exactly call posting some emojis "Calling out" as nothing will come of this but good for her, I guess.

 

[puppetmaster]

She’s not a bad choice to point out the discrepancy


It’s not like they can really punish her for it given who she’s connected to.

Nia is right, and the iiconics ain't did shyt all year. People are tired of blonde hair women being pushed as the bar and standard in the division. shyt I'm surprised they left out alexa

Kept it light, but the point stands.

 

[ThisIsLife]

Shes right, but it's so much other racist shyt to call the WWE out on besides a twitter pic.

 

[Yade]

Someone needs to call her out for obesity

 

[mrken12]

It makes you wonder about the WWE's sponsors. The WWE never face any backlash for their horrendous tone deaf PR moves.
