Chaos Erupts on SmackDown as Nia Jax Returns – The WWE Women’s Championship picture became even more volatile on the April 25 edition of WWE SmackDown, as multiple rivalries converged into a chaotic scene involving Tiffany Stratton, Jade Cargill, Naomi, and the returning Nia Jax.
The night featured a marquee first-time-ever singles match between reigning WWE Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton and Jade Cargill, who has been gaining momentum since her singles win at WrestleMania 41. But before the match could reach its conclusion, Naomi made a surprise appearance, attacking Cargill and forcing a no-contest. Naomi hurled Cargill into the steel ring post with force and then locked eyes with Stratton inside the ring—clearly signaling she still has championship ambitions of her own.
Before Stratton could react, Nia Jax made her shocking return and blindsided the champion. Jax laid out Stratton with a devastating AnNiahilator, standing tall over the fallen titleholder. The moment marked Jax’s first appearance on WWE television since she last competed at WWE Elimination Chamber, where she teamed with Candice LeRae against Stratton and WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus.
With Jade Cargill, Naomi, and now Nia Jax all inserting themselves into the title scene, Stratton finds herself surrounded by threats on every side. SmackDown’s women’s division is suddenly bursting with potential challengers—and it seems the battle for the WWE Women’s Championship is only just beginning.
