The supposed Big Show of the WWE women’s division did NOT attack Jade Cargill, says analyst
One of the biggest wrestling stories in recent weeks has been Jade Cargill’s sudden removal from WWE TV. While speaking on his podcast, Peter Rosenberg seemingly ruled out Bayley as a potential attacker.
Originally scheduled to compete at Survivor Series, Jade Cargill was pulled from WWE TV last week on SmackDown. WWE booked an angle where the former AEW star was laid out in the parking lot after a brutal assault.
Naomi and Bayley were seen supporting Bianca Belair as Cargill was transported to a hospital and many wondered if one of the two former women’s champions was responsible for the attack.
During an episode of the Cheap Heat podcast, Peter Rosenberg denied the possibility of Bayley being the culprit as he felt it would be too obvious.
“Jade Cargill has been written off television apparently, being brutalized backstage by an unknown assailant. You’re going, Bayley? It can’t be Bayley.” [From 24:00 onwards]
Considering the number of heel and face turns Bayley has experienced in WWE, the SmackDown star was compared to Big Show on the podcast.
Paul Wight was infamously known for regularly switching roles and Peter Rosenberg agreed that Bayley was on a similar path in the women’s division.
Even though Bayley can switch back to being a villain, Rosenberg didn’t feel it would happen:
“She is getting there (on being the Big Show of the women’s division). It’s not Bayley, isn’t that too obvious?” [24:33 – 24:45]
Peter Rosenberg addresses the confusion surrounding Jade Cargill’s WWE status
The WWE analyst, like a majority of the fans, was looking for answers to explain the unexpected decision to give Cargill a break from TV.
Some reports state she might be injured while others deny the claims and stress Cargill’s story is all a work.
Peter Rosenberg, for starters, was concerned about Jade Cargill’s well-being and most importantly hoped she wasn’t seriously hurt. Rosenberg also pointed out that the latest setback will inevitably delay Jade’s feud against tag team partner Bianca Belair, whenever that happens.
“We’re left to know, A, how long is Jade Cargill out? B, if this is as serious as it is being speculated, and the way they wrote her off suggests serious. The way they wrote her off was like, you’re not going to see this person for a while! And that would mean to me what a potentially sad thing. Obviously, we hope she is okay and is able to resume her career and be good.” [From 30:25 onwards]
WWE revealing the identity of Cargill’s attacker is the next big thing that fans are looking forward to and we should know more about the same after Survivor Series.
