Report: SmackDown champion expected to appear on Monday’s WWE Raw
A SmackDown champion is anticipated to make an appearance on Raw tonight following last week’s events.
According to PWInsiderElite.com, Jade Cargill is slated to make an appearance on the upcoming episode of Raw.
Cargill will defend the WWE Women’s Championship against Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 42. Additionally, her newly formed alliance with Michin and B-Fab altered the powerplay in her favor.
On the April 3 edition of SmackDown, Ripley faced Michin in a singles bout. That came to an abrupt halt with B-Fab and Cargill’s attack on her. While Cargill was setting Ripley up to hit her signature Jaded move, IYO Sky rushed to the ring to assist her former tag team partner.
After Ripley’s Elimination Chamber win, targeting Cargill’s title for WrestleMania 42 she switched brands from Raw to SmackDown. WrestleMania 42 marks Ripley’s seventh consecutive match at the Premium Live Event and Cargill’s first.
Meanwhile, Sky is involved in a feud with The Kabuki Warriors on Raw. There is a new threat on the horizon after she cost Raquel Rodriguez her match against Stephanie Vaquer on the March 16 edition of Raw. This led to a singles match between Sky and Rodriguez on the March 23 episode.
