Nice little return for a heel turn baby face last night!

Nia Jax defeats Bayley (c) (12:33) - TITLE CHANGE !!!

Of all the people....per the Tropes,

X-Pac Heat
--Nia had a bit of a reputation for botches and causing injuries to her opponents, but after what happened the week of Survivor Series 2018, where she punched Becky Lynch square in the face, giving Lynch a concussion that forced WWE to call off the Lynch vs. Rousey match that the whole PPV had been built around and find a new SmackDown representative, everyone was practically calling for Nia's head on a stick.
--Jax herself seemed to recognize it with a tweet of "isn't anyone going to ask me how my fist feels?" WWE are trying to parley it into proper Heel heat by doubling down on Nia's "monster" booking in the wake of her smashing Becky's face. For the most part it did not work, with the crowds becoming even more indifferent of her presence (arguably even becoming one of the most disliked competitors on the Raw roster).
--Jax's return from injury in the spring of 2020 garnered very mixed reactions, with many fans still skeptical over her borderline reckless in-ring work. The criticism over her dangerous behavior exploded into discussion once again on the April 20th edition of RAW, when she botched a Buckle Bomb on Kairi Sane (a major Ensemble Dark Horse), very nearly injuring her in the process. The controversy about how dangerous and careless she is became so great that the company decided to ban the Buckle Bomb move altogether (at least from Jax's arsenal as Seth Rollins continues to use it).
--She also didn't do herself any favours by talking about complaining to WWE bosses about Ronda Rousey hurting Alexa Bliss in the ring. Specifically the part where described it as "standing up for her", which many decried as hypocritical in light of Nia's own history of injuring people.

I think everything outside of the US is on Netflix, because they still have the deal with Peacock.

Did you see Sheamus there as Hendry arrived?
I swear, the look on his Irish face was like "Oh, God no! That's all you need, one thieving Scot....."

Yep, can't be having more Scots around, lol. It'll disrupt the delicate balance
