Chelsea Green defends Nia Jax after the accident with Jade Cargill on SmackDown

Nia Jax found herself once again in the center of controversy after the incident that left Jade Cargill with a serious injury in the last episode of WWE SmackDown. The force of the blow sparked a wave of criticism on social media, where fans did not hesitate to label Jax as dangerous and even call for her dismissal from the company.

Faced with the avalanche of criticism, the first United States champion of WWE, Chelsea Green, immediately came to her colleague's defense. Green used her X account to support Jax against the critics who labeled her as unsafe, calling the online community's discontent a farce.

Green defended her colleague's professional value by stating: "For the internet not to know that Nia is one of the best is the biggest farce. We are lucky to have her as a leader in the locker room," she wrote. This directly contrasts with the fans' outrage, who, after witnessing the incident, reignited old conversations about Nia Jax's controversial history in the ring.

The incident occurred during a triple threat match, when Nia Jax slammed Jade Cargill into the steel steps, causing the wrestler to bleed. Despite the graphic nature of the moment, Jade Cargill later confirmed that she is okay and recovering.
