Jade Cargill Fires Back At PED Accusations Online

A social media exchange involving WWE Women’s Champion Jade Cargill has gained attention after she fired back at accusations regarding her physique.

The situation began when a user on X commented on a gym video of Cargill, suggesting she was using performance enhancing drugs. The remark claimed her strength in the clip was evidence of PED use.

Cargill did not hold back in her response, directly addressing the accusation and shutting it down.

“I was going to read you for filth. But it’s no point. Long story short. No, I’m not on anything. I have GREAT genetics and I work hard. You can look at my brother and see my genetics. This clip is when I found out about my neck issues which affected my lifting. I swear yall will try to discredit me for anything. I’ve ALWAYS been muscular. But I see you can use a meal plan.”

She followed up with an additional message reinforcing her stance and referencing company policy.

“Plus WWE drug tests us like crazy. Next subject idiot.”

Cargill’s response quickly circulated online, with many fans weighing in on the debate surrounding her comments and the original accusation.

Stardom Stars Pulled From WrestleMania Week Show Due To Visa Issues

Visa complications have forced changes to Stardom’s WrestleMania week plans in Las Vegas, with three names now officially off the card.

The promotion confirmed that Maki Itoh, Yuria Hime, and Fuwa-chan will miss the April 17 American Dream 2026 event at the Pearl Concert Theater, part of Palms Slam Fest. According to Stardom, an unusually lengthy visa process prevented the trio from receiving approval in time for travel to the United States.

In a statement, the company acknowledged the setback and confirmed that an updated lineup will be revealed once finalized, while also apologizing to fans who were anticipating the appearances.

Itoh addressed the situation directly, revealing that the issue extends beyond just this show. She confirmed that all of her U.S. bookings for April have been scrapped, despite efforts behind the scenes to resolve the situation. While disappointed, she reassured fans that she plans to return once circumstances allow.

Stardom President Taro Okada also commented, noting that while the promotion did everything possible on its end, there is a clear need to improve processes as the company continues pushing its global expansion.

Despite the changes, the show is still set to feature a strong lineup. Alex Windsor is scheduled to defend the NJPW Strong Women’s Championship against Saya Iida in the main event, with Willow Nightingale, Harley Cameron, Kris Statlander, and Mina Shirakawa also advertised.

Thekla Praised By Tony Khan As AEW’s Top New Signing

Tony Khan is continuing to heap praise on one of AEW’s fastest-rising stars, singling out Thekla as a standout performer since her arrival in the company.

Speaking during an appearance on Ringer Wrestling, the AEW President reflected on some of the promotion’s most impactful signings over the past year. Among them, he made it clear that Thekla has exceeded expectations, even going as far as to label the current Women’s World Champion as the top newcomer in that group.

“I think when you look at the champions on the women’s side, I would say absolutely Thekla would be , of this new crop, you’d have to say the MVP of the new arrivals as World Champion. And she’s been fantastic. Now when she arrived, she had a goal of winning the World Title, but the very first thing she did was go after Jamie Hayter. And Jamie Hayter been a huge part of AEW, one of our most popular stars, a former World Champion. And Jamie Hayter versus Thekla I think is a really compelling, exciting rivalry and I’m excited for their match this weekend at AW Dynasty.”

Khan also emphasized just how important Thekla has become to the women’s division in a relatively short time.

“I think Thekla’s been a huge part of the company on the women’s side, absolutely. What a huge signing.”

Thekla first joined AEW in July of last year and quickly made an impact, capturing the Women’s World Championship soon after her debut. Her rise has been backed internally as well, with the company reportedly locking her into a contract extension ahead of schedule.

Elsewhere in the interview, Khan highlighted the success of other recent additions, including the current AEW World Trios Champions. He pointed to the trio’s unique blend of styles and experience as a major asset to the roster.

“Our World Trios Champions have been a fantastic signing too. All three of them, they represent very different places in their careers, different experiences, different backgrounds. But three great wrestlers that we’ve signed in the past year in Mistico and Speedball Bailey, and of course the Jet Kevin Knight.”

With momentum building behind several newer names, AEW continues to lean on fresh talent to shape its future, and based on Khan’s comments, Thekla is firmly at the center of that vision.

WWE Explored Sphere Promotion For WrestleMania Week But Talks Stall

WWE Explored Sphere Promotion For WrestleMania Week But Talks Stall

WWE explored the possibility of bringing a major visual presence to the Sphere during WrestleMania week, but those plans have not materialized.

According to WrestleVotes Radio, the company made an inquiry about running a promotional feature on the high profile venue. Despite early discussions, no agreement has been finalized. One creative idea reportedly pitched internally even included Danhausen appearing as part of the concept.

The main obstacle appears to be cost, with advertising at the Sphere proving to be significantly expensive. As things stand, there are no current plans for WWE to utilize the venue for promotion during WrestleMania week.

WWE’s focus remains on WrestleMania 42, which is set to take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas across April 18 and 19. The event will air live on the ESPN App in the United States and stream internationally on Netflix. Additionally, the opening hour of night one will air on ESPN2, while night two’s first hour will be broadcast on ESPN.
