4-time WWE World Champion to turn heel and be revealed as Jade Cargill's mystery attacker? Potential betrayal explored

Jade Cargill was set to compete in the Women's WarGames Match at this year's Survivor Series. However, she suffered a mysterious backstage attack on SmackDown this week.

The 32-year-old was seen lying unconscious on the hood of a car in the parking lot. Amid the wave of speculation, former World Champion Bayley could reveal herself as the mastermind behind this attack.

WARNING: This article contains spoilers for the November 29 episode of SmackDown.

The speculation arose after what transpired on the blue brand. WWE taped the upcoming episode of SmackDown from the same arena after last night's show went off-air. In light of Jade Cargill's injury, The Role Model replaced her as the fifth member of the babyface team in the Women's WarGames Match.

The Damage CTRL member is a two-time SmackDown Women's Champion, one-time RAW Women's Champion, and one-time WWE Women's Champion. She could walk into Survivor Series along with Rhea Ripley, IYO SKY, Naomi, and Bianca Belair. Just when Bayley would be unleashed from her cage to enter the steel structure in the ring, her expression could change.

In a shocking turn of events, the 35-year-old could turn heel and launch a merciless attack on her teammates at the ramp. With a devious smile on her face, she could reveal herself as the mysterious attacker of Jade Cargill, leaving the WWE Universe stunned in disbelief. In the aftermath of a ruthless attack, The Role Model could walk away from the arena.

She could take a page out of Dakota Kai's book as the latter did the same back in 2019. Kai mysteriously attacked Michin backstage and replaced her in the Women's WarGames Match at NXT Takeover: WarGames only to betray her team. However, Bayley turning heel is just a speculation at the moment and it remains to be seen how the story unfolds.

Bayley to feud with Jade Cargill after Survivor Series: WarGames 2024?

This week on Smackdown, Jade Cargill was hospitalized after the latter was ambushed backstage. Meanwhile, Bayley took her spot in Rhea Ripley's team, replacing the 32-year-old. There are high chances that The Storm could return after Survivor Series: WarGames, looking for revenge.

By the time she returns, The Role Model could take full responsibility for the attack by unveiling herself as the mastermind behind it all. As discussed above, it could happen at the upcoming spectacle. However, if not Survivor Series, the former WWE Women's Champion could reveal it on SmackDown after the PLE.

As a result, Jade Cargill could come back and start a blockbuster feud with Bayley on the blue brand. The Damage CTRL member turning heel could open the doors for several intriguing feuds, starting with The Storm. This could put both superstars into the spotlight, reviving the women's division.

Bayley could once again establish herself as a vicious heel while Cargill could become one of the biggest babyfaces on the roster. It will be interesting to see what Triple H has in store for both women.
