Jade Cargill has opened up about what the upcoming WrestleMania match means to her while also admitting she would love to see the bout undergo a slight change.
Returning at Elimination Chamber, Cargill attacked Naomi inside the structure as Bianca Belair watched on while locked inside her pod. Naomi later admitted that she was the one who attacked Cargill back in 2024, and a WrestleMania match was set up between the two former friends.
Back at WrestleMania 40, Cargill was part of a six-woman tag where she teamed with Naomi and Belair to defeat Damage CTRL. One year later, the former Women’s Tag Team Champion is in a singles match. Additionally, Jade Cargill and Naomi will also make history as this will be the first time in nearly 20 years that a women’s singles match has taken place on the show with no championship at stake.
Appearing on WWE Die Woche, Cargill admitted the match came as a shock to her but is ready for revenge:
“Two, two, 2-0. I’ma go 2-0, 2-0, 2-0 (at WrestleMania 41). I’m gonna go 2-0. I’m excited. I wasn’t expecting it, I wasn’t expecting it. It kind of came out the blue. I’m happy to show what I can do in a solo match. I welcome everything that comes with this match. I welcome the hate, I welcome the love. I’m thankful. I’m grateful, I’m ready to put on a show, I’m ready to tear the house down and I’m ready to beat down Naomi to a pulp. I’m ready to get the revenge that has been surging for a while. I’m happy that I can finally put it to rest and get my hands on her.
I’m sure it’s gonna be more from this because I’m sure she’s gonna be broken and gonna seek revenge in some type of way but she’s wrong. She’s absolutely wrong for what she did and people try to justify what she’s done, which is crazy. But, it means the world to get my first solo match and I’m happy to do it on the grandest stage at Mania at that, in Vegas at that with my family there. It just feels great.”
“I Have A Chair Right Now”: Jade Cargill Would Love Stipulation To Be Added To Mania Match
Given the intensity of the rivalry and the storyline receiving high praise, some have hoped that a stipulation could be added to the bout. When asked about this, Cargill admitted that while she would love to have the opportunity to bring weapons into the match, she is also happy to get the job done on her own:
“I would love that, I would love that (if a stipulation was added to the match against Naomi). Listen, I have a chair in my car right now. I’ve been trying to prepare for this the entire time but, I’m just doing what I’m told and that’s fine. She’s just gonna get straight fists and that’s okay. That is okay. Fist and feet — not feet but boots and it’s all good.”
During the same interview, Jade Cargill predicted that a recent WWE signing will “take over the industry.”
