Jade Cargill has made a significant impact in WWE since signing with the company in late 2023. Over the past year, she has solidified her place on the main roster, even capturing the Women’s Tag Team Titles twice.
However, her time in WWE hasn’t been without controversy. According to Dave Meltzer in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there was reportedly a confrontation between Cargill and Shayna Baszler a few months ago, prior to Cargill’s injury.
Multiple sources confirmed the incident, though details remain scarce. What’s known is that Cargill had rubbed several members of the Raw women’s division the wrong way, leading to Baszler challenging her. The situation escalated to the point where management had to step in and defuse the tension.
The reported incident took place during a period when Cargill and Bianca Belair were feuding with Baszler and Zoey Stark. Meltzer noted that while specifics are unclear, the friction seemingly stemmed from both in-ring interactions and backstage issues. Interestingly, one WWE talent suggested that tensions on the SmackDown side were even higher than those on Raw.
Cargill is set to appear on tonight’s episode of SmackDown to address her return and recent attack on Naomi.
