When Jade Cargill and Rhea Ripley started going at it on social media the other day, with other WWE women's division stars joining in, most seemed to figure that the back and forth was a work on WWE's part, one to help draw interest in Cargill and Ripley's upcoming WrestleMania match. But the hostility of some of the barbs had left some wondering if this whole situation was more shoot than work, something a few in WWE believe as well.

PWInsider Elite reports that the Cargill-Ripley exchange was not something devised by WWE creative. Instead, sources seem to suggest that the issues turned into a legitimate heated exchange, with the blame being placed on Cargill for that escalation. Particular attention was put towards Cargill's post about Ripley being friendly with WWE creative, which led to Ripley putting out an Instagram post telling Cargill to "learn how to work" before later deleting it. Many found Cargill's tweet troubling, denying that Ripley did such behavior, likening the accusation to an "upsetting character assassination."

It appears Cargill may be a bit of a controversial figure in the WWE women's locker room, as she's been criticized for rubbing talents the wrong way in the past, explaining why talents like Chelsea Green and Piper Niven were critical of her tweets towards Ripley. Sources further claimed that Cargill comes off as needlessly insecure in the locker room, and hadn't returned respect from those who put her over without any question. 

While others tried to downplay the heat and those close to Cargill cited it as nothing more than tension between competitive personalities, all seemed to agree that WWE management would need to speak to Cargill about her issues sooner than later. For now, all eyes will turn to "WWE SmackDown" on Friday, where Ripley is expected to appear to begin the onscreen build to her and Cargill's WrestleMania match.
