From WrestleMania to Backlash.
Jade Cargill kicked off the in-ring portion of her WWE run as a part of the 2024 women’s Royal Rumble. She tagged with Naomi and Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 40 and at the Backlash Premium Live Event, Cargill and Belair became Women’s Tag Team Champions.
The latter accolade came at the conclusion of Cargill’s first European tour with WWE. She reflected on that stretch while speaking to The Babyfaces Podcast and said the crowds were electric.
It was my first European tour. Oh my gosh, the fan base over there is ridiculous. I mean, obviously because we don’t go over there as often as we do in the States and travel as much. It was electric. Even if anything went off the rail, they still went, ‘Yeah!!!’ I’ve never been a part of something so crazy. The crowd just made you feel loved and you wanted to give more. It was like, okay, alright, alright. So you just wanna top it and top it and top it and they were hot from beginning to end. Most people, they get tired around the semi-main and they were hot the entire show. It was electrifying, I would love to go to Europe again to be honest. I wouldn’t mind being there for a while. The crowd was just unmatched. I just never seen anything like it and just going from WrestleMania to Backlash, it made it a little bit easier being that WrestleMania is the hottest stage, the biggest stage in pro wrestling. So for me to go from WrestleMania to Backlash, I was more calm, I was more alive, I was more at center with myself and the locker room was on fire. The locker room was excited, it was only five matches on the card. So it was more of a relaxed day. You’re not rushing, you’re not being pulled left, right, up and down. You were just ready.
Cargill is a member of the SmackDown roster. She is being advertised for the upcoming King and Queen of the Ring Premium Live Event and Clash at the Castle: Scotland.
