WWE legends have had their fair share of hilarious and unexpected moments, but Teddy Long may have just taken things to another level. The 77-year-old Hall of Famer has openly expressed his admiration for Nia Jax, and during a recent episode of The Wrestling Time Machine with Mac Davis, he made it clear—he’s more than willing to “suffocate” under her signature move.
Wrestling veterans are known for their old-school charm and wit, but Teddy Long has been vocal about his love for Nia Jax for quite some time. During the show, wrestling journalist Bill Apter playfully recalled Long’s long-standing desire to get a stink face from the former WWE Women’s Champion, referencing how he has flirted with her on numerous occasions.
“Teddy’s dream is to get a stink face from Nia Jax.” (5:57 – 6:01)
Mac Davis, co-host of the show, had his own take on the situation, jokingly suggesting that Long wouldn’t last a second if Jax ever granted him his wish. But Teddy Long wasn’t backing down. He didn’t hesitate before doubling down on his statement, making it clear that he had no objections—even if it meant an untimely demise.
“I don’t care, I don’t care, let me suffocate.” (6:07 – 6:10)
Will Nia Jax Entertain Teddy Long’s Wish?
While Nia Jax has yet to respond to Teddy Long’s bold declaration, the WWE Universe is already buzzing about the possibility of a hilarious on-screen interaction. Long, a former SmackDown General Manager, has always been known for his entertaining persona, and his willingness to embrace any moment for a laugh is exactly why he remains a fan favorite.
As for Jax, she’s currently focused on re-establishing herself in the WWE women’s division, but who’s to say she wouldn’t humor a legendary figure like Long? With the unpredictable nature of WWE, anything is possible.
The WWE Universe Reacts
Fans have taken to social media to react to Long’s hilarious statement, with many amused by the idea of a Hall of Famer openly requesting such a move. Some have even suggested that if Jax were to ever grant his wish, it should happen on a special edition of Monday Night Raw.
“Teddy Long is the GOAT for this one. No shame, just vibes.”
“Give this man his wish. He’s earned it!”
“Nia Jax better acknowledge this! ”
The ball is now in Nia Jax’s court, and if WWE is looking for a viral moment, they may have just found one.
