Following Cargill’s injury angle, WWE acted swiftly to adjust its plans. Bayley filled her spot in the Women’s WarGames match after the events of Raw, while Lash Legend replaced her in the Women’s U.S. Championship tournament. Additionally, WWE is reportedly planning to strip Cargill and Belair of the Women’s Tag Team Titles as part of the storyline fallout.
