WrestleMania 40 went down this past weekend, on April 6th and 7th, 2024, and it was a big deal for women’s wrestling. There were plenty of matches showcasing the incredible talent of female wrestlers. It was awesome to see these talented women get their time to shine on such a grand stage.
Night 1 of WrestleMania 40 was intense! Becky Lynch took on Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship, and Mami came out on top, keeping her title.
Plus, there was a thrilling six-pack tag team ladder match for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship, featuring some fierce women wrestlers showing off their skills.
Night 2 was just as epic. Bayley, who won the 2024 Royal Rumble, stepped into the ring against Iyo Sky for the WWE Women’s Championship in the main event.
Fans were really hyped up for WrestleMania 40, especially for the big six-woman tag team match with Bianca Belair, Naomi, and Jade Cargill. But it turned out the match was super short, lasting only 8 minutes and 5 seconds. Even though the trio won, a lot of fans felt let down because they were expecting more action and excitement.
Shortest WrestleMania 40 Match Left Fans Disappointed
WrestleMania is the grand stage of WWE, a night where big rivalries take center stage and legendary moments are born.
But in the women’s tag match, things wrapped up quicker than fans hoped. Chants of “We Want Jade” erupted during the short time Jade Cargill was in the ring, which means they were really hyped to see the 31-year-old in action.
She’s a rising star with tons of potential, and fans wanted more of her. They also felt like Bianca Belair and Naomi, who are established stars, should’ve had more time to shine. Overall, fans were left wanting more from that match. Many took to social media to express their disappointment. Here are some fan reactions:

Despite the brevity of the match, Cargill’s WrestleMania debut is still a big deal. It shows how quickly she’s climbing the ranks in WWE. She only joined last year, but her strong performances in the ring and her success in AEW prove she’s a valuable asset to the company.
While fans crave a longer display of her skills, this match might be a stepping stone to bigger opportunities in the future.
Jade Cargill, Bianca Belair, and Naomi Steal the Show
Jade Cargill secured her debut singles win at WWE WrestleMania 40, while Bianca Belair kept her undefeated streak alive, earning her the title of ‘Mrs. WrestleMania.’
They teamed up with Naomi to defeat Asuka, Dakota Kai, and Kairi Saine from Damage CTRL. Cargill sealed the win by pinning the New Zealander professional wrestler. Even though the match was short, it marked a significant moment.
It was a great start for Cargill in WWE, and Belair’s record at WrestleMania only improved. The victory wasn’t just about winning; it showcased the trio’s prowess and star power in the women’s division.
Naomi, with her experience, played a key role in securing the win, demonstrating her strength as a contender in the division. This match could be the start of something big for both Belair and Cargill, whether as rivals or partners. One thing’s certain: all three women made a statement at WrestleMania 40.
