Reports suggest the brutal attack may be masking a real injury
Summary
– Fightful reports Jade Cargill’s SmackDown angle may cover a legitimate injury
– WWE’s “storyline” update lists severe injuries, leaving no timetable for her return
– Her absence affects the Women’s U.S. Title Tournament and Survivor Series WarGames
The shocking assault on Jade Cargill during SmackDown has taken a new twist, with reports indicating that the brutal angle might not be purely storyline. Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select has revealed that the segment could be masking a legitimate injury for the powerhouse WWE star.
The SmackDown segment saw Cargill laid out across the hood of a car, bloodied and surrounded by shattered glass. WWE later issued a medical update, listing multiple injuries, including muscle contusions, a bruised kidney, a sprained MCL, and facial lacerations. WWE confirmed that there is currently no timeline for her return, leaving her status for Survivor Series WarGames uncertain.
Adding to the intrigue, Cargill’s spot in the WWE Women’s United States Title Tournament has been filled by a mystery competitor for next week’s triple-threat match against Michin and Piper Niven.
If Sapp’s report is accurate, Cargill’s trajectory in WWE could face a significant delay, creating uncertainty about how this setback might impact her highly anticipated push. Fans are speculating whether this marks a temporary detour or a major shift in her WWE journey.
