Jade Cargill Wins 2025 WWE Queen of the Ring in Riyadh

At WWE Night of Champions 2025 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Jade Cargill defeated Asuka in the Queen of the Ring finals to earn a title match at SummerSlam against current Women’s Champion Tiffany Stratton. The match showcased a competitive back-and-forth, with Cargill ultimately winning after countering Asuka's Empress Impact with her finishing move, Jaded. Despite some controversy over the pinfall and initial boos from the crowd, Cargill delivered a compelling babyface promo declaring that "a storm is coming" at SummerSlam. Cargill’s rise in WWE has been rapid, transitioning from AEW and overcoming a steep learning curve, with WWE officials expressing strong belief in her potential. The women’s division is set for an exciting SummerSlam, especially with Money in the Bank holder Naomi looming as a potential game-changer in the title picture. This victory solidifies both Cargill and Cody Rhodes, who won the King of the Ring, as central figures heading into the event.
