Jade Cargill Says She Initially Didn’t Feel Gash Opening On 9/26 WWE SmackDown, Realized Severity When Crowd Reacted To It

Jade Cargill recalls a large gash opening up on her brow during a WWE SmackDown main event.

The main event of WWE Friday Night SmackDown on September 26th was a Triple Threat match for the WWE Women’s Championship featuring Jade Cargill, Tiffany Stratton and Nia Jax. During the course of the bout, Jade would be shoved hard into the steel steps by Jax, opening up a large gash on her brow, which she showed off after the show.

While speaking to WYFF News in a new interview, Jade Cargill recalled how she didn’t initially feel the gash opening, only realizing the severity when the crowd reacted to it.

“I didn’t feel it. I think it was so much adrenaline going through my body. I didn’t know it was that bad until I was like looking in the camera talking and in unison, the entire arena said, ‘oh!’ and I was like, ‘okay, this must be bad.’ Then as I’m still talking out of my peripheral, I’m seeing all the women turn around and they’re like disgusted because I was going to get on the announcer’s table and like beat my chest and go crazy, and when I seen that, I said, ‘okay, this must be really bad.’ Then our ref, Aja passed by and said, ‘you are bleeding like crazy.’ I said, ‘okay, this is terrible.’ But you know, in our sport, you gotta keep going.”

Elsewhere in another recent interview, Cargill spoke about her desire to elevate the WWE Women’s Championship that she recently captured. You can read more about that here.
