Jade Cargill recently shared her thoughts on working with Naomi. The former AEW star has been locked in a heated rivalry with the current women’s world champion since last year, originating from a backstage attack by Naomi. Since then, the two have faced off several times, including solo matches at WrestleMania 41 and Evolution II.
In an interview on the Wrestling Podcast Rap, Jade discussed her battles with the WWE veteran. The ex-TBS champion praised Naomi’s performance, saying it was inspiring to witness her opponent unlock a new, unseen level of talent: “Yeah, it’s so exciting. I think Naomi will get it. She got it and she was ready to unlock it to see new skin no one has ever seen before, it’s exciting.”
Jade also commented on how Naomi has been able to elevate her performance despite over 15 years in the wrestling business. She expressed hope that Naomi’s passion for wrestling continues to motivate her as well, especially during tough times: “The fact that she still loves this business after being there for so long, because it could be taxing and that could be the case. And she still loves it. I hope she keeps pushing on me, tying her boots, sometimes urging me to keep pushing when things get harder too.”
Recently, Naomi was scheduled to defend her women’s title against Iyo Sky on Raw, but the match was canceled just hours before the show when the company announced the defending champions would not be competing. Further details are available here.
Fan Take: This ongoing feud highlights the dynamic competition within women’s wrestling, bringing fresh energy and storytelling to WWE. Fans should watch closely, as the passion and rivalry between stars like Naomi and Jade Cargill could push the sport to new heights.
