WWE’s Women’s Tag Team Championship situation remains uncertain following Jade Cargill’s injury, as revealed by Michael Cole during the latest episode of SmackDown. The commentary veteran addressed the growing speculation about the titles potentially being vacated.
Cole confirmed that Cargill faces an extended absence from WWE programming, yet noted that officials have not reached a final decision regarding the championship’s immediate future. This update comes amid widespread expectations that the titles would be vacated due to the recent brutal assault on Cargill.
While the list of potential attackers has narrowed, the focus now shifts to the championship’s status. Bianca Belair, Cargill’s tag team partner, competed on SmackDown against Piper Niven, securing a victory with her KOD finisher onto Chelsea Green. Despite Belair’s win, the match revealed that Niven was not behind the attack on Cargill.
The championship landscape in WWE faces additional complexity as another title situation develops. RAW General Manager Adam Pearce indicated upcoming discussions regarding Finn Balor’s championship responsibilities, particularly concerning his tag team title reign with JD McDonagh.
This development follows Balor’s involvement in recent championship matches, including his interference in Damian Priest’s contest against Gunther at Survivor Series: WarGames. Balor’s subsequent attack on the World Heavyweight Champion led Pearce to grant him a title opportunity at Saturday Night’s Main Event.
The timing of these events has raised questions about Balor’s ability to maintain his tag team championship commitments, as he and McDonagh have shown limited interest in defending their World Tag Team Championships while pursuing individual goals.
