She has had success at WrestleMania, stand-out performances in the Royal Rumble, and captured WWE Women&#8217;s Tag Team Championship gold. Unfortunately, Cargill has had setback after setback in the last few months, causing massive frustration. Jade did win the Queen of the Ring tournament and headlined a match with WWE Women&#8217;s Champion Tiffany Stratton that ended in controversy. Cargill remained defiant and focused, time and again trying to capture the top prize on the Blue brand. But <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/24\/wwe-smackdown-results-10-24-25-live-updates\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">this week on WWE SmackDown<\/a>, she finally hit her tipping point.<\/p>\n<p>Kiana James and Stratton had a banger of a bout this Friday night, with the Business Representative of Giulia almost getting one over the champion in a non-title affair. Stratton would prove to be too much to handle and handily took care of Kiana James. Post-match, WWE Women&#8217;s United States Champion, The Beautiful Madness, Giulia would try to take out Stratton with a devastating beatdown.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Storm&#8221; arrived just in time to ward off the assault. Stratton and Cargill had a touching moment, with the two sharing a heartwarming moment, and made gestures as a sign of respect. Then, the unthinkable happened: Jade Cargill would deliver a devastating Clothesline to Tiffany Stratton, and proceeded to have her way with her around the ringside area before getting pulled by WWE officials.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_144723\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-144723\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-144723 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/Jade_Cargill_RR24_1-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A photo of WWE SmackDown star Jade Cargill.\" width=\"640\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/Jade_Cargill_RR24_1-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/Jade_Cargill_RR24_1-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/Jade_Cargill_RR24_1-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/Jade_Cargill_RR24_1-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2025\/10\/Jade_Cargill_RR24_1.jpg 1638w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-144723\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: By Diego Serrano &#8211; WWE Royal Rumble 2024, CC BY 2.0,<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After the destruction, Jade Cargill would hoist up the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/24\/title-grudge-match-to-happen-at-wwe-saturday-nights-main-event-snme-xli\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">WWE Women&#8217;s Championship<\/a>, signaling that she&#8217;s coming for the gold and she has a newfound edge.<\/p>\n<p>Backstage, Cathy Kelley would try to catch up with Cargill, asking if she was aware of the consequences.
