Nia Jax came under fire following this week’s RAW. Jax, who has been previously accused of legitimately injuring her opponents in matches, threw Dana Brooke in a hard-hitting power bomb.

Fortunately, Brooke was reportedly doing okay backstage. During the allegedly botched power bomb, Brooke landed severely on the back of her head, which led to many speculations that she might have suffered a concussion.

Soon fans started criticizing Jax for being unsafe in the ring. These criticisms increased after Alex McCarthy of TalkSport posted a Twitter video of the incident.
