Trading blows with Rodriguez, Jax found herself stumbling back toward the barricade, where Zoey Stark unleashed a devastating senton upon her. This sparked an intense ringside brawl that soon spilled into the ring.
In an unfortunate twist of fate, Ripley found herself caught in the midst of this chaos. Stark’s boot met her face, prompting the referee to call for the bell. With Ripley holding Stark, she inadvertently launched her into Shayna Baszler, bringing Nia Jax into the ring.
Swift maneuvers and dodges ensued, with Stork delivering a pivotal kick, sending Jax crashing into a headbutt from Ripley. The chaos reached its peak.

The arrival of Jade Cargill in WWE has been nothing short of extraordinary. Immediately after the announcement of her signing, WWE extended an invitation to the Fastlane PLE event on October 7.
There, WWE’s Chief Creative Officer, Paul “Triple H” Levesque, personally welcomed Cargill. The wrestling world was abuzz with excitement.
Cargill then graced WWE NXT with her presence, where she was warmly received by the Senior Vice President of Talent Development Creative, Shawn Michaels. During her visit, Cargill had the privilege of watching a thrilling singles match between Asuka and Roxanne Perez, as well as a riveting opening-round contest in the NXT Women’s Breakout Tournament.

Speculation arose that Cargill might choose NXT as her home, but the wrestling community soon discovered otherwise. Three days later, she made a surprise appearance on SmackDown, accompanied by Triple H. There, she crossed paths with none other than 14-time women’s champion, Charlotte Flair.
But the excitement didn’t end there. Just three days after her showdown with “The Queen,” Jade Cargill landed on WWE RAW. It was here that she came face-to-face with “The Man,” Becky Lynch. Their encounter was marked by a gaze at Lynch’s NXT Women’s Championship, and a bold response from Lynch: “Get in line.”
“The Eradicator” On Jade Cargill
While Jade Cargill has yet to meet WWE Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley in the ring, the anticipation is palpable. In a recent interview with Sporting News Australia, “The Eradicator” shared her excitement for Cargill’s WWE journey.
Ripley’s words resonated with enthusiasm: “I am very excited to see what she brings to WWE. Like you said, she is a big name, and a lot of people are watching and waiting for her debut. We don’t know which brand she is going to be on yet – it could be Raw, SmackDown, or NXT. No one really knows exactly what’s going on.”
“If it is RAW, that’s my show. Mami runs Raw. The Judgment Day, we run RAW. So, if Jade wants to come to my brand, then I would love to step in the ring with her and show her exactly why Mami is always on top.”
The question of which brand Cargill will ultimately be assigned to remains unanswered, keeping fans on the edge of their seats. Stay tuned for more exciting developments in the world of women’s wrestling. This is just the beginning of what promises to be an action-packed journey!
