Jade Cargill remains the WWE Women’s Champion, yet her championship tenure has unveiled an unexpected and disappointing statistic just before the upcoming Monday Night RAW event. Despite holding the title since November 1, 2025, during the Saturday Night’s Main Event, Cargill’s WWE reign has offered minimal in-ring activity, raising concerns among fans and analysts alike.
Details of Jade Cargill’s Title Victory and Limited Defenses
Cargill secured the WWE Women’s Championship by defeating Tiffany Stratton on the November 1 episode of Saturday Night’s Main Event, shortly after her heel turn, which had signaled a dominant championship run. However, her reign across three months has been notably subdued. As of February 1, although 33 years old and champion, she has not defended her title on any broadcasted events.
In fact, she has only participated in three televised matches since capturing the belt, with her total in-ring time amounting to less than eight minutes. This unusually low exposure contrasts with expectations for a reigning champion and ignites questions regarding her current status in WWE programming.
Developing Feud with Jordynne Grace Sparks Anticipation
WWE has been setting the stage for a major championship rivalry between Jade Cargill and Jordynne Grace. After weeks of verbal confrontations, tension escalated into a physical altercation behind the scenes on the final Friday Night SmackDown episode before the Royal Rumble Premium Live Event. This brewing conflict has fans eager to see how it will influence Cargill’s WWE Women’s Championship defenses going forward.
Jade Cargill Shares Concerns Over Her Hairstyling on Recent Podcast
During a guest appearance on the SoNicky Podcast, Jade Cargill discussed the challenges posed by her long hair and the dedicated hairstylist who accompanies her at all times. She described the upkeep as a consistent “headache” due to the high expense and maintenance involved, but emphasized that her hairstylist is worth every cost.
“It’s a headache [having long hair]… It’s expensive. This color is expensive. It’s a headache. I do [spend so much on my hair], because I can’t do hair. So, my woman [Shanaé B] travels with me everywhere… Listen, [my hairstylist] is so expensive. You are expensive! But she’s worth it. Because I will die if my wig ever comes off in a ring. I will probably lose my job. I will die! That’s total embarrassment. And a lot of people don’t know how wigs work. I have a cap under this. So, imagine that,”

Uncertainty Surrounds the Timing of Her Next Title Defense
Despite the ongoing buildup with Jordynne Grace and other storylines, Jade Cargill’s next WWE Women’s Championship defense remains unconfirmed. Fans and commentators remain anxious about when she will finally showcase her skills in a more substantial match, with many hoping that the looming rivalry will compel WWE to deliver more significant title defenses during televised events.
The current state of Jade Cargill’s reign underscores a troubling trend for one of WWE’s top women’s stars, as prolonged inactivity and limited appearances risk undermining both her momentum and the prestige of the championship. How WWE will address this leading into RAW and subsequent shows remains a key storyline to monitor in the months ahead.
3 months and zero defences on WWE TV is crazy.
