Former WWE NXT Women’s Champion Tatum Paxley made her main roster debut on Friday’s SmackDown from Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, appearing during the main event between Charlotte Flair and Jade Cargill.
The interference came in the closing moments. With B-Fab and Michin trying to help Cargill at ringside, Alexa Bliss’ music hit. Bliss, sidelined since Cargill attacked her on July 10, came out wearing a brace on her left arm and carrying Lilly.
The lights then went out. When they came back on, Paxley was perched on the top turnbuckle and dove onto B-Fab and Michin, wiping out both members of Cargill’s crew.
The chaos gave Charlotte the opening to regain control and put Jade away to close SmackDown.
Paxley has history with both Charlotte and Alexa. Flair and Bliss defeated Paxley and Izzi Dame at NXT Homecoming in September 2025, retaining the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship.
