Jade Cargill suffered several injuries after falling victim to a backstage attack a few weeks ago on WWE SmackDown. While the attacker's identity remains unknown, WWE analyst Sam Roberts claimed he was 100% sure it was a 5'5" top superstar.
As the Stamford-based company announced that The Storm would be out of action indefinitely, SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis wanted her and Bianca Belair to vacate the Women's Tag Team Championship. However, The EST of WWE and Naomi convinced him to replace Cargill with The Glow. The latter teamed up with Belair to defeat Candice LeRae and Nia Jax in a title match last Friday on the blue brand.
Speaking on his Notsam Wrestling podcast, Roberts disclosed that he believes Naomi was the one who attacked Cargill. He claimed she was the one who benefited the most from taking out the 32-year-old:
"[Do you think Naomi took out Jade?] A 100% I do. Oh, Naomi was so quick to go Bianca you need a partner? A 100%. I said if you wanna figure out who did that to Jade Cargill, who jumped her and threw her on the hood of a car, figure out who benefits the most from that. Naomi. A 100% it's Naomi. Yes, I do believe that that is who did it," he said. [1:17:43 - 1:18:15]

Naomi addressed winning the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship
Following her and Bianca Belair's victory over Candice LeRae and Nia Jax on SmackDown, Naomi spoke to Byron Saxton on SmackDown LowDown about her feelings after winning the Women's Tag Team Title.
The 37-year-old stated that it was a full-circle moment, pointing out her history with the championship. Naomi previously held the title alongside Sasha Banks before the two left the belts and walked out in 2022:
"It feels incredible and it's like a full circle moment for me. I have a hell of a history with the tag team titles and I hate, under these circumstances, how I got this title back. But, I knew I could do it with Bianca [Belair]. And this one's for Jade [Cargill]," Naomi said.
It would be interesting to see if Naomi will indeed be revealed as Jade Cargill's attacker in the upcoming weeks.
