Jade Cargill Said This About Her WWE WrestleMania 42 Match

Jade Cargill is 2-0 at WrestleMania and she has no intention of letting that change. The WWE Women’s Champion is set to defend her title against Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas, and she’s already made clear how she sees the outcome — while fully acknowledging the challenge in front of her.

“I don’t want to say this is going to be an easy match, it’s not. I’m going against the top girl. The number one girl in our company. I don’t think anyone will argue that,” Cargill said in an interview with Complex. “Do I know that I’m coming home with my title? Yes I do. I’m going to go balls to the wall. I’m going in with no regrets. Rhea has never seen someone like me.” She also addressed Ripley directly: “I think she’s phenomenal in her own right, but I’m phenomenal in mine as well. I’m not going to end my undefeated streak at WrestleMania. About to go 3-0.”

Cargill Calls the Match the Grandest Moment of Her Career So Far

Despite an already impressive WrestleMania resume, Cargill was unequivocal about where this match ranks. “This will be the grandest match that I’ve had so far in my career,” she said. “Nobody’s really seen me go toe-to-toe with such a stellar opponent. I think you guys are gonna see us put on a show and a clinic.”

Cargill’s WrestleMania journey began at WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia, where she teamed with Naomi and Bianca Belair to defeat Damage CTRL’s Asuka, Dakota Kai, and Kairi Sane. At WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas last year, she defeated Naomi in a singles match following a feud that began when Naomi attacked her and put her through a car windshield. She won the WWE Women’s Championship from Tiffany Stratton at Saturday Night’s Main Event last November. Ripley, meanwhile, is no stranger to big WrestleMania moments — this will be her fourth consecutive title match at the event, having competed in world championship matches at each of the last three WrestleManias. WrestleMania 42 airs live on ESPN Unlimited and Netflix internationally on April 18 and 19 from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
