WWE Higher-Ups Claim Jade Cargill Is Injured and Receiving Medical Treatment

Jade Cargill’s status has been the subject of swirling rumors, but WWE higher-ups are reportedly standing firm on one point—she’s injured and currently receiving treatment. The situation began after a SmackDown storyline showed Cargill ambushed by a mystery attacker. While it appeared to set up a future feud, it quickly sparked speculation about whether the angle was covering up a real injury.

Initially, Dave Meltzer reported that Cargill was dealing with a legitimate injury, potentially sidelining her for at least three months. However, PWInsider.com countered this narrative, claiming the injury wasn’t real and the segment was purely storyline-driven. The conflicting accounts have left fans and even some insiders confused.

Meltzer addressed the rumors in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, explaining that while there are multiple versions of the story, the top brass in WWE maintains that Cargill is injured. “I got a pretty detailed description from someone high on the food chain of what happened,” Meltzer wrote. “They said that she is absolutely injured and seeing WWE doctors for it and other medical professionals for it. Nobody seems to understand why the other story of what they ‘know’ is going around.”

Bryan Alvarez also weighed in, stating that he believes Cargill is injured based on the information he’s received. Similarly, Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful Select revealed that WWE’s internal injury list includes Cargill’s name.

Despite the confusion, it’s clear WWE higher-ups are sticking to their version of events. The conflicting narratives have left fans wondering if this is a case of miscommunication, an attempt to preserve kayfabe, or something else entirely.
