Former WWE Women’s Champion Jade Cargill recently recalled her gruesome injury, which resulted in a trip to a plastic surgeon.
Last year, Cargill suffered a deep cut above her eye. The injury happened after Nia Jax threw her into the steel ring steps on WWE SmackDown. She revealed Triple H immediately sent her to a plastic surgeon after seeing the damage.
Speaking on No-Contest Wrestling, Jade Cargill shared what happened that night, admitting she had actually wanted a bloody wrestling moment.
“Listen, I’ve been wanting to bleed for a while. I’ve been asking for blood for a while. And, I guess God said, ‘Here you go.’ The moment was so surreal because those stairs were supposed to move. Oh, so they were supposed to move when I hit it, and that’s why it happened the way it happened.”
At first, Cargill didn’t think the injury was serious.
“So, when I hit it and I seen a little blood, I was like, ‘Oh, okay.” ‘Cause your head bleeds more than normal. So, I’m like, ‘Okay. All right.’ But I looked down, and you can look at the video, and a whole stream of blood just poured into my hand. But all I was thinking was like, ‘Dang.’ Because I have a white wig. So I was like, ‘Oh, man, my girl’s 40th birthday is tomorrow. I’m supposed to be going to church.'”

“But then I got up, and Daff was like, “You are bleeding.” Yeah. And I’m like, “Okay, well, it’s probably not that bad. Like, it’s fine.” And then, in unison, the entire arena just gasped. ‘Cause after what I did to Nia, I was going to get on the announcers’ table and just beat my chest like King Kong and talk a lot of smack.”
Cargill said she finally realized that her injury must be pretty serious if everyone was reacting. She noted that the referee, Daphanie LaShaunn, was ready to signal for a legit injury.
“Daff came over and was like, ‘I’m about to throw up the X.’ And I was like, “No, no, no, no, no. Like, I’m good. I got one more thing to do. We good.”
After returning backstage, Triple H immediately realized the injury was serious.
“Triple H said, ‘Yeah, we gonna have to see a plastic surgeon.’ And I was like, ‘Whoa, for you to say that, for you to say that must be bad because he’s seen so much, right?’ And then I looked in the mirror, and KO was there. He’s like, ‘Oh, dang. Let me get this picture.’ And I looked in the mirror, and I just had my hand over my mouth like, ‘Oh my gosh, like this is really happening.'”
