As seen during the September 26th 2025 edition of WWE SmackDown, Tiffany Stratton defended her women’s championship against Nia Jax and Jade Cargill in a triple threat match. At one point, Jade was legitimately busted open by Nia.

While speaking to WYFF News, Jade addressed the injury…

“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 looking in the camera talking. In a unison, the entire arena said, ‘Ohhhhh!” And I was like, ‘Okay, this must be bad. Okay.’ And then as I’m still talking out of my peripheral, I’m seeing all the women turn around, and they’re disgusted because I was going to get on the announcement table and beat my chest and go crazy. And when I seen that, I said, ‘Okay, this must be really bad.’ And then by and said, ‘You are bleeding like crazy.’ I said, ‘Okay, this is terrible.’ But in our sport, you got to keep going.”
