Jade Cargill wins 2025 WWE Queen of the Ring
Jade Cargill is the new WWE Queen of the Ring.
She defeated Asuka in the finals of the tournament today at WWE Night of Champions in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The finish saw Cargill counter a hip attack into Jaded to get the pin.
With the win, Cargill earns the right to challenge for a world title at WWE SummerSlam. She was interviewed by Byron Saxton after the match.
“When I first entered the tournament, it felt like the world was on my shoulders,” Cargill said. “But you know what? For the people out there who are doubting themselves, praise yourself because you are fighting through the boos. Don’t let them tell you who you are, you show them.”
“A storm is coming for SummerSlam,” she added.
Cargill is now the third wrestler to win Queen of the Ring, with all three winners crowned in Saudi Arabia. Zelina Vega became the first in 2021, when she defeated Piper Niven (then known as Doudrop) for what was called the Queen’s Crown at Crown Jewel in Riyadh. Nia Jax won the first tournament officially named Queen of the Ring last year, beating Lyra Valkyria in the finals at King & Queen of the Ring in Jeddah.
