Nia Jax Earns WWE Women’s Title Shot After Naomi Distracts Jade Cargill – Nia Jax is officially next in line for a shot at Tiffany Stratton’s WWE Women’s Championship following her win over Jade Cargill on the May 9 episode of WWE SmackDown. However, the victory didn’t come without controversy, as Jax’s win was indirectly assisted by an untimely ringside brawl between Naomi and Stratton.
The match was physically intense, with Cargill showcasing her power and control for the majority of the contest. But the tide turned when Naomi—who has been embroiled in an ongoing rivalry with Cargill—attacked Stratton at ringside. The champion had been watching the bout up close, possibly scouting her next challenger.
The brief altercation distracted Cargill at a critical moment, giving Nia Jax the opening she needed. Jax capitalized quickly, flattening Cargill with the AnNiaihilator to secure the pinfall and earn herself a future championship match.
While the exact date and location for Jax’s title opportunity have not yet been confirmed, the setup for her clash with Tiffany Stratton is now in motion. With tensions also brewing between Cargill and Naomi, and Stratton caught in the middle, the women’s division on SmackDown is quickly becoming one of WWE’s most unpredictable scenes.
This latest development adds another layer to the ongoing feuds, with Stratton potentially needing to deal with both an aggressive challenger in Jax and the fallout from Naomi’s interference.
