Asuka and Kairi Sane have been superlative champions, carrying the women’s tag division with grace and gusto, setting a shining example for what a workhorse team can do in this new era of WWE programming, and not a soul in the Wrestling Inc. staff thinks they have a snowball’s chance in hell against Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair. Here at WINC, we unanimously believe it’s Cargill and Belair’s time to take up the flame through the warm spring and summer months.

The inclusion of Cargill alone would likely mean success at the coming PPV, as the former AEW TBS Champion has been given monumental praise since signing with the company and hasn’t lost since her debut in the 2023 Women’s Royal Rumble. In the recent WWE Draft, Cargill was a #2 overall pick, and commentary threw every compliment one could throw at a talent, calling Cargill “generational” (despite her WWE career consisting of seven matches, only four of which have been televised). Cargill is a made woman, and it’ not a matter of if she will hold WWE gold, but when.

She also has a powerful ally on her side in the form of Belair, who is one of the most successful WWE recruits of the past decade, full stop. Belair is every bit the generational talent WWE claims Cargill is, and with both women’s world title scenes somewhat cramped at the moment, she desperately needs something to do. Both Belair and Cargill felt almost wasted in their WrestleMania 40 six-woman tag match, as both seem built for a bigger showcase, and as quickly as possible. The Wrestling Inc. staff seems certain that Backlash: France will be that showcase.
