Emma’s current gimmick is running her mouth, so it shouldn’t be a surprise she got on Twitter after stealing the pin in the tag match which earned her and Nia Jax entry into No Mercy’s Women’s title match...
.@NiaJaxWWE should be thanking ME for getting her a match she doesn't deserve. This is about me. @ #WWENoMercy it'll be #EmmaNewWomensChamp

Nia’s response a day-and-a-half later? Even knowing that Jax doesn’t play (ask Lana), this is shockingly lethal...
did you thank Vince for the 6 month vignette push you had but never capitalized on? How much MORE do you deserve https://t.co/JbPQXx3PPC

The reference is to the interminable “Emmalina” launch which culminated in the Australian Superstar walking on stage in a gown and declaring she was going back to the name Emma. Backstage rumors indicated WWE yanked the gimmick because they didn’t like Emma’s portrayal of a character modeled on Attitude Era stars like Sable or The Kat. Jax is obviously laying the failure of the angle at her hashtag-obssessed co-worker’s feet.
We’ll see where this goes next week on Raw. I certainly wouldn’t hold my breath for a response from Emma.
In fact, while the headline is meant as a joke, maybe somebody should go check on her...
