Nia Jax delivers weakest Annihilator against Tiffany and Stratus
WWE fans were left unimpressed on the latest episode of SmackDown as Nia Jax delivered what can only be described as the weakest Annihilator of her career. The star wrestler’s signature move, which has been a staple of her arsenal for years, failed to make an impact on both Trish Stratus and Tiffany Stratton.
The incident occurred during a tag team match between Jax and her partner Shayna Baszler against Stratus and Stratton. As the action spilled outside the ring, Jax saw an opportunity to deliver her patented Annihilator to both opponents. However, instead of the usual power and authority, her moves looked lackluster and failed to send either Stratus or Stratton crashing to the mat.
Fans in attendance and watching at home were quick to take to social media to express their disappointment and confusion. Many described Jax’s Annihilator as the weakest they had ever seen, with some even comparing it to a steel chair shot delivered by the legendary Hulk Hogan.
“I’ve seen Jax deliver the Annihilator to some of the toughest opponents in the WWE, but this was something else,” said one fan on Twitter. “It looked like she was trying to gently place them on the mat instead of crush them.”
Another fan added, “I’ve seen high school wrestlers deliver more powerful moves than that. What’s going on with Nia Jax?”
The lack of impact from Jax’s Annihilator was not limited to just her opponents. The crowd, which had been electric all night, was suddenly silenced as they struggled to comprehend what they were witnessing. Even Jax’s partner, Baszler, looked unimpressed as she stood by and watched her teammate fail to deliver the goods.
Stratus and Stratton, on the other hand, seemed unfazed by the attempt. In fact, both women quickly got to their feet and continued to trade blows with their opponents. It was clear that they had not been affected by Jax’s lackluster Annihilator.
Despite the disappointing display, Jax and Baszler were able to emerge victorious in the match. However, the question on everyone’s mind now is what happened to the usually reliable Annihilator. Was Jax feeling the effects of a long and grueling match, or was this simply a rare off night?
Regardless of the reason, Jax’s weak Annihilator has left fans questioning her ability to deliver in high-pressure situations. As one of the most dominant forces in the WWE, Jax is expected to be able to deliver a devastating move like the Annihilator at any given moment. Her failure to do so has left a sour taste in the mouths of fans and has raised serious doubts about her ability to compete at the highest level.
Only time will tell if Jax can bounce back from this disappointing performance. One thing is certain, however – her Annihilator will not be the same again.
