She is among the long line of people who also have the same view. A good number of the population believe that the vaccine seems too rushed and will be sticking to their natural defense mechanism instead.

Although Nia Jax refuses to take the vaccine now, that decision may change as it gets distributed. WWE has made it a number one priority to ensure the safety of its Superstars.

The company will undoubtedly make it mandatory for Superstars to take the vaccine. This depends on the results of it on the public. Jax may have no choice but to take it.

WWE survived the COVID-19 scare through safety measures

WWE had a lot of COVID-19 scares from April to July. The company had nearly 30 cases, and production was very close to being shut down temporarily.

When the news broke out that a Developmental talent had contracted the virus, a lot of Superstars were put on high alert. Kevin Owens, Roman Reigns, and Sami Zayn all decided to stay out of the action for health concerns.

However, WWE handled the situation perfectly. The company immediately introduced safety measures such as regular tests and made wearing a mask backstage compulsory.

Superstars who did not follow the guidelines were not allowed to enter the premises. With these restrictions, WWE managed to control the outbreak and has not had a case since.

Now that the nightmare may finally have a chance of ending, WWE will surely seize every opportunity it can to eliminate risks. The vaccine will surely be the focus here.
