Jade Cargill was tossed off a platform through a car windshield on Smackdown and will be missing time from TV because of the attack. The reason for the major angle was to write Cargill off television so she has time to recover from an injury.

Fightful Select is reporting that Cargill was written off TV because of an undisclosed injury. Cargill was replaced in both the WWE Women's United States Championship tournament and the women's War Games match at Survivor Series. At this time, Cargill does not have a timetable to return. She's currently one half of the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions with Bianca Belair.

On this week's episode of WWE Raw, Bianca Belair addressed Cargill's injury during a backstage promo with Naomi. Belair said that she'd be out for a long time and that she'd work to get the person that did that to her.

Cargill was a major talent acquisition for WWE in 2023. She made her pro wrestling debut for AEW, but made the move to WWE on September 26 of last year and was given the red carpet treatment by WWE after they announced her signing.

Cargill was presented as a superstar and crossed paths with Charlotte Flair, Triple H, and other major stars prior to her making her official main roster debut. She had a notable moment in the 2024 women's Royal Rumble match when she eliminated current WWE Women's Champion, Nia Jax.

Cargill and Belair have been a well-oiled team since their partnership began. Rumors are swirling as to who Cargill's attacker was.

Jade Cargill's Big Star Potential

With Cargill getting the star treatment she did upon signing with WWE, the top stars of the women's division in the company are on deck for her when she returns -- even if her team with Bianca Belair stays intact.

Charlotte Flair is a huge match for Cargill. Not only is Flair synonymous with the women's division in WWE, but she has the championship credibility that will help emphasize Cargill as a star. Rhea Ripley is not only a star in the women's division, but one of the biggest stars WWE has. Ripley vs. Cargill can fit under the bright lights of a WrestleMania or Summerslam.

Becky Lynch is reportedly returning to WWE soon and she would be an excellent foe for a heel Jade Cargill. Same thing with Bayley. Iyo Sky doesn't have the star power that those other women have at this point, but she would be able to bring Cargill along in the ring. Sky is a skilled wrestler and would provide Cargill with a test of ring aptitude as she ventures up the card.

And then there is Bianca Belair, Cargill's tag team partner. We've already seen some dissension between the two and it's inevitable that they cross paths. Could Belair have been the assailant that attacked Cargill to put her on the shelf? It's plausible. Whether she is or not, Cargill vs. Belair is match we're destined to see sooner than later.
