Current champions to relinquish their WWE title following a tragic incident? Exploring the chances
WWE has been gearing up to undergo a massive transition in the next few months. With the ongoing preparations for 2025, the company seems to be heavily focused on the star-studded line-up of its champions. However, a tragic incident recently happened on SmackDown due to which two top stars might be forced to relinquish their championship in the coming weeks.
Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair could be forced to give up their WWE Women's Tag Team Championship. Last week on SmackDown, The Storm suffered a mysterious and cold-blooded attack as she was found lying unconscious on the hood of a car backstage. While the motive and identity of the attacker remain unclear, it was reported that Cargill sustained multiple internal injuries.
WWE recently announced on its social media handles that the 32-year-old would be out of action for an undisclosed period in light of the ongoing situation. As a result, there are high chances that The EST and The Storm might have to vacate their Women's Tag Team Championship in the coming weeks after Survivor Series 2024.
Additionally, recent reports suggest that Big Jade is dealing with a legitimate injury in real life and that the company may have used this storyline to take her off television while she recovers. This seems to be a major indication that Cargill has been sidelined for a while. Meanwhile, Belair could transition back to a singles run, potentially uncovering the identity of the mysterious attacker who targeted her partner.
It will be interesting to see how this storyline develops in the coming weeks on the blue brand. Jade Cargill's injury has certainly caused a major change of plans in the Women's WarGames Match which is set to take place at Survivor Series: WarGames.
Jade Cargill to make her return at WWE Royal Rumble 2025?
Jade Cargill is expected to be absent from the company for a significant period especially given her real-life health concerns. Her absence has dealt a huge blow to the SmackDown women's division. There is a buzzing question among the fans about when the 32-year-old might come back to the Stamford-based promotion.
Royal Rumble 2025 could be the place where The Storm returns to WWE. It is one of the biggest premium live events of the year which kicks off The Road to WrestleMania. Therefore, it could be a perfect stage for WWE to bring her back and put her in major storylines.
Jade Cargill could enter the 30-Women Royal Rumble Match next year as a surprise entrant, similar to her appearance this year. A Royal Rumble return would not only put her in the spotlight immediately but would also provide a significant boost for her next run leading to The Show of Shows.
It remains to be seen what Triple H has in store for Big Jade and when the WWE Universe gets a glimpse of her in the company next.
