For a lot of professional wrestlers, who they looked up to when they were a young and impressionable fan can lead to inspiration for a lot of factors in their total package when they step into the ring, including moveset, gimmicks and much more. For Nia Jax, her favorite wrestler was a legendary big man.
In a new interview posted to their social media platforms, WWE Espanyol would ask Nia Jax a variety of questions, including who her favorite wrestler was growing up. While Nia briefly mentioned she should say The Rock as their family, she would name legendary big man Bam Bam Bigelow.
“I want to say The Rock because he’s family, but Bam Bam Bigelow.”
