00:09 Legit reasons kept them apart, namely pregnancy and firing, and there's an actual hook here.

00:14 Lynch is out to prove that the bloody mishap didn't make her.

00:17 On Raw, she added a wrinkle by accusing Jax of avoiding the confrontation

00:21 because the only thing Nia has to hang her reputation on

00:24 is being the person who broke the nose of the greatest ever to do it.

00:27 By treating that 2018 moment as a flashpoint in both of their careers,

00:31 and to an extent it was, they can revisit it with a fresh perspective based on where both women are now.

00:39 who still hears the whispers that her career was jump-started because of that punch.
