Within the world of WWE, familial connections run deep, and for Nia Jax, her ties extend to none other than The Rock, her second cousin once removed.
While their on-screen paths have never intersected, their bond traces back through family lineage, with Jax’s father being the cousin of The Rock’s grandfather, Peter Maivia.
Roman Reigns, another powerhouse in WWE, shares the Anoa’i family heritage with Jax, although their connection is not direct.
Despite both stemming from this legendary lineage, their relationship is primarily through blood rather than direct ancestry.
Interestingly, Reigns and The Rock, despite not being biologically related, share a bond akin to blood brothers, a testament to the deep-rooted camaraderie within the Anoa’i family.
The Anoa’i family’s influence within WWE spans generations, boasting a roster of current and past superstars, including Reigns, The Rock, Jax, the Usos, Solo Sikoa, and the late Umaga.
Jax’s tenure in WWE, spanning seven years from 2014 to 2021, saw her emerge as a formidable force in the women’s division.
After a brief hiatus, she returned at the 2023 Royal Rumble, signaling her continued presence in the wrestling world. Meanwhile, Reigns, a stalwart in WWE since signing in 2010, has maintained his dominance within the company.
Recently, Jax expressed her openness to joining The Bloodline, the faction led by Reigns. With The Rock’s recent alliance with The Tribal Chief, the prospect of Jax aligning herself with the powerhouse faction looms large.
“If it worked out that way, I would have no problem. I am very loyal to my family. If they need me to have their back, I am 100% there. So, they know where to call me,” Jax affirmed.
Should Jax join The Bloodline, she would become a significant addition to the faction, following in the footsteps of Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley, who has become a pivotal member of The Judgment Day.
While Jax’s future path in WWE remains uncertain, her potential association with The Bloodline adds an intriguing layer to her narrative, hinting at possible alliances and rivalries yet to unfold on the grand stage of WrestleMania and beyond.
