Jade Cargill sends warning to opposite WWE brands ahead of upcoming Draft
Jade Cargill is preparing for her first WWE Draft experience. The SmackDown Superstar has just issued a warning to the company's brands while also offering a bold prediction for an upcoming title match.
The WWE Draft will kick off this Friday on SmackDown, then wrap up with next Monday's RAW. The annual roster shake-up is set to feature major NXT changes and will coincide with the two-week NXT Spring Breakin' event on the USA Network.
Week One will air this Tuesday night, headlined by Trick Williams challenging Ilja Dragunov for his NXT Championship. If Trick loses, he must leave the brand, which is an especially interesting stipulation due to a recent blockbuster report.
Big Money Jade has been on the blue brand roster for just about one month. The former AEW star took to X today to predict The Anointed One vs. The Invincible Czar for the NXT Championship. She also warned the other rosters and captioned the video by promising to watch this Tuesday.
"With the Draft coming up, I'm keeping my eyes on all brands. That's including NXT, and I'm particularly interested in this Trick Williams vs. The Mad Dragon match for the NXT Championship, and if I had to place my bid, I would put my money on... 'Whoop That Trick!'" Jade Cargill said.
Cargill made her in-ring debut in the Women's Royal Rumble, then made her WrestleMania debut earlier this month by teaming with Bianca Belair and Naomi to defeat Damage CTRL.
The 31-year-old then won her singles debut over Chelsea Green on the RAW after WrestleMania XL, and that same week, she teamed with Belair to defeat Green and Piper Niven on SmackDown.
Jade Cargill talks potential WWE opponents
Jade Cargill is in her first year with WWE and has already had her Women's Royal Rumble debut, and was victorious in her WrestleMania debut.
Big Money Jade recently joined SmackDown and is slowly making her way up the ranks of the blue brand. However, she is also interested in facing different opponents on RAW.
Speaking to The Babyfaces Podcast, Cargill confirmed unfinished business with Nia Jax from the Royal Rumble. The inaugural AEW TBS Champion also said she would like to be a champion when Rhea Ripley returns from her injury.
"I have some unfinished business with Nia Jax. That would be great. I think that would be an amazing match. Rhea Ripley, obviously she’s injured right now, but I know she is going to come back and hopefully I’m holding that belt when she comes back. One thing I know is how to hold a streak down and how to go out there, dominate, and kick bu*t. That would be a great match as well," Jade Cargill said. [H/T to Fightful]
Cargill also commented on potentially feuding with some of her allies in WWE. She predicted one match will happen and said it's something fans have wanted for a long time, while adding that it's phenomenal to be in WWE with Naomi and Bianca Belair when all three were in different promotions last year.
