Nia Jax Warns Fans Should Be Scared Of WWE Star

Nia Jax had high praise for one WWE star.

Since arriving in WWE in June 2024, Jacob Fatu has destroyed everyone who has dared cross his path. As the resident enforcer for the new Bloodline, Fatu has stood across the ring from, and handed out beatings to, the likes of Cody Rhodes, Kevin Owens, Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, and more.

In early 2025, the Samoan Warewolf found himself in a feud with Braun Strowman and he demolished his rival at Saturday Night’s Main Event. However, their issues look set to continue after Strowman eliminated Fatu from the Royal Rumble.

In short, Fatu is a man not to be messed with. And according to a fellow WWE star,, he’s got that reputation for a very good reason.

Nia Jax In Awe Of Jacob Fatu

In a new interview with Muscle Man Malcolm, Nia Jax heaped praise on Fatu, describing him as one of the most talented wrestlers she has ever seen.

“Well, you should be scared of Jacob. Jacob is [a] legit killer. Anybody needs to be worried about him. And [he’s] one of the most talented human beings I’ve ever seen step into a ring.

One of my favorite stories is when you know… That when he was going through his troubles and he was watching the boys on TV and changing his life around. Look at him. He had the opportunity and he took it upon himself to get better and look where he is now. He’s probably at the top, almost to the top actually.

Like he’s… I have nothing but great things to say about him. And when I watch him, I’m always in awe of what he does,”

On the February 14 episode of SmackDown, Nia Jax will challenge Tiffany Stratton for the Women’s Title. Jax lost the title to Stratton on the January 3 edition of the blue brand after the rapidly rising star cashed in her Money In The Bank contract.

Elsewhere, Jacob Fatu will face Damian Priest and Braun Strowman in an Elimination Chamber qualifier.
