Jade Cargill, known for her impressive track record, is heading into WWE Night of Champions with a major development affecting her much-anticipated Jade Cargill SummerSlam singles title opportunity. While she has dominated various matches since joining WWE, disappointing news emerged just before her final bout in the Queen of the Ring Tournament.
Rise from AEW TBS Champion to WWE Contender
Since leaving AEW, where she famously held the TBS Championship for a record 508 days, Jade Cargill has focused on building her singles career in WWE. Demonstrating her abilities, she bested Michin, Nia Jax, and Piper Niven in the qualifying rounds of the Queen of the Ring Tournament. Cargill then defeated Roxanne Perez in the semifinal, earning her place in the finals against Asuka at WWE Night of Champions 2025.
Despite her accomplishments and the excitement around “The Storm” since her WWE debut in 2023, Michael Cole revealed during her entrance that Cargill has not yet competed for a singles championship in WWE. This revelation was unexpected given her decorated background and initial hype, as she has primarily competed in tag team matches instead of singles contests.
Tag Team Success and Setbacks
Cargill quickly established herself as a formidable force in WWE, teaming with Bianca Belair to capture the Women’s Tag Team Championship twice. Their second reign was interrupted when Cargill suffered an injury, sidelining her for several months. During her absence, Belair partnered with Naomi (also known as The Glow) to defend the titles. By the time Cargill returned, the duo had relinquished the championships, marking a challenging period for the former AEW standout.
Significance of the Queen of the Ring Final
Tonight’s Queen of the Ring final at WWE Night of Champions 2025 against Asuka represents a pivotal moment for Jade Cargill. If victorious, she could finally earn her first singles title shot in WWE at the upcoming SummerSlam event. The outcome of this match will not only shape Cargill’s future but may also signal a turning point in the women’s division, as fans eagerly anticipate who will claim victory on this high-stakes night.
