Nia Jax, Jade Cargill, and Bianca Belair are going to the next round of the WWE Queen of the Ring tournament.
The SmackDown side of the Queen of the Ring tournament began on the May 10 episode of WWE SmackDown. First, Nia Jax defeated Naomi in a hard-fought clash between two former champions. Naomi nearly scored the win with a hurricanrana off the top rope. She had Jax on the ropes, but Jax clinched the win with the Annihilator.
Later in the show, Jade Cargill battled Piper Niven. The two powerhouses went back and forth. Niven took control with a running senton. Chelsea Green slapped Cargill and helped Niven maintain the advantage. Cargill rallied and slammed Niven. Green tried to interfere, but Cargill stopped her. Cargill kept fighting, and she scored the win with Jaded.
Next, Bianca Belair faced Candice LeRae in another first-round match. Belair controlled the action, but Indi Hartwell interfered and helped LeRae gain the upper hand. Belair persevered and slammed LeRae with the KOD for the win. In the next round, Belair will face either Michin or Tiffany Stratton, who will face each other at a live event.
