Report confirms Jade Cargill suffered serious injury on SmackDown
Wrestling Observer’s Bryan Alvarez confirms Jade Cargill sustained serious injuries during SmackDown attack, debunking speculation about storyline angle; return timeline uncertain.
Jade Cargill’s absence from WWE programming stems from legitimate injuries sustained during a backstage attack on the November 22 episode of SmackDown. The incident occurred while her tag team partner Bianca Belair competed in the Women’s United States Championship Tournament.
Bryan Alvarez addressed speculation about Cargill’s status on Wrestling Observer Live, confirming the severity of her condition. “Jade Cargill, by the way, I don’t care what you read online, okay? Cargill is injured, and it’s serious, and I don’t know when she’s going to be back,” Alvarez stated.
WWE previously announced that Cargill would be out indefinitely due to multiple injuries from the assault. While fan theories suggested the attack might be part of a storyline, Alvarez’s report indicates otherwise.
The identity of Cargill’s attacker remains unknown, with no suspects revealed since the incident.
