Cargill's Injury Status Still Confusing

Was She Or Wasn't She Injured?

PW Insider continues to report that Jade Cargill wasn’t injured during her time off from WWE. She returned at Elimination Chamber and then attacked Naomi again on SmackDown, signaling her return ahead of WrestleMania, but she was out for a few months, and it's not clear why. Sean Ross Sapp is reporting that he still believes the injury was legitimate and responded to the PWInsider report by arguing if she wasn't hurt, then WWE “worked the creative team, the medical team, the PC staff, all her closest friends and coworkers, and the people involved in the storyline.”

While not confirmed, rumors of tension between Cargill and others backstage might have led to her break from the company. Fightful suggested Cargill might have asked for time off during WWE's mandatory holiday tour, which WWE may have granted to let cooler heads prevail.

Cena To Make a Run Of Appearances On Raw

Expect To See More Of Cena Soon

The big heel turn by John Cena has garnered a ton of attention, but his absences in 2025 amidst a retirement tour have some fans surprised he's not been around more often. There is good news for fans. WWE.com is advertising Cena to appear on three consecutive episodes of Raw during the upcoming European Tour.

Cena is set to show up on the March 17 Raw in Brussels, the March 24 Raw in Glasgow and the March 31 Raw in London. This will give the company a chance to build his storyline and heel turn as he likely explains his alignment with The Rock and why he "sold out".

WWE's final Saturday Night's Main Event of 2025 is set to take place in Boston, MA, on Saturday, December 13, and Cena is expected to attend. As it stands, the belief is that Cena will attend the following events: Mar 17 – WWE Raw, Mar 24 – WWE Raw, Mar 31 – WWE Raw, Apr 20 – WrestleMania, Apr 25 – SmackDown, May 25 – SNME, May 30 – SmackDown, June 13 – SmackDown, June 20 – SmackDown, plus over 20 more.

What Is Adam Cole's Future In Wrestling?

What Is His Future With AEW?

There has been a lot of talk about Adam Cole being relegated to pre-show levels in AEW, rumors about his standing in the company and the industry, and how his downfall should be a case study of what not to do. He spoke recently about his future in the business, his injuries, and changes in his relationship with Britt Baker.

“I know these challenges have been difficult, but everyone goes through their own challenges in their own way. I’m not even close to wanting to be done with wrestling. I feel like I have a lot more to offer, especially here in AEW, so even with these roadblocks or with these challenges, my mentality has just never changed. I’m fully confident that I’ll be able to come back from all this and have the best years of my career ahead of me.”
