Naomi finally broke her silence on social media Tuesday night after being attacked by Jade Cargill at Elimination Chamber last Saturday. The surprise assault prevented Naomi from participating in the women’s Chamber match.
During the premium live event, Cargill made her return to WWE and brutally attacked Naomi before the match could start. The attack eliminated Naomi from competition and shocked fans who witnessed the sudden assault.
After maintaining an uncharacteristic silence on social media following the incident, Naomi posted updates on Tuesday evening that directly referenced the attack. The former SmackDown Women’s Champion shared content to her Instagram story acknowledging what happened.
Naomi appeared at the premiere of “Queen of the Ring” wearing a neck brace, visibly selling the effects of Cargill’s attack from the weekend. Her Instagram story featured an image of the original attack alongside a photo of herself with husband Jimmy Uso at the premiere.
The social media post highlighted the “effects” of Cargill’s actions, with Naomi notably cropping The Storm out of the attack image. This deliberate editing choice made her feelings about the situation quite clear.
Despite wearing the neck brace, Naomi was photographed smiling alongside Jimmy Uso at the premiere event. However, the 37-year-old star’s social media activity indicates she has not forgotten about the attack.
The storyline development suggests that Naomi may have been the one who attacked Cargill back in November, leading to this revenge assault at Elimination Chamber. This revelation adds context to the ongoing tension between the two competitors.
WWE has not yet announced when Naomi will confront Cargill about the attack. Their first face-to-face encounter could potentially occur on this week’s SmackDown or later this month.
