Nia Jax has been cleared to return from injury and is expected to be backstage at SmackDown this Friday, according to PWInsider, though that doesn’t necessarily mean that she’ll appear on the show.
She should be back on TV any day now and it’s just a matter of waiting for WWE to come up with the right moment and storyline for her return.
Nia has been out of action since undergoing ACL surgery on both of her knees in April, so she’s been out for almost a year.
