Jade Cargill Explains Why She Has To Be In An Established Company Like WWE

April 7, 2024

Jade Cargill is one of the top female stars currently in WWE. Recently, she shared the reason why she chose to sign with WWE instead of re-signing with AEW.

While speaking on a recent episode of the Busted Open Radio podcast, Jade Cargill mentioned that she chose to sign with WWE as she wanted to be a part of an established company and at her age she didn’t have much time to grow along with a new company like AEW.

“It was a couple decisions that made me come to WWE. I mean, other than the fact that the machine is ridiculous over here, the connections, the history, the legacy, it’s one of one, you know? AEW is a new company. Obviously, they’re still figuring things out, but that happens in every company. You have to figure things out, what’s good and what’s bad. I am 31, I don’t have time to really grow with a company at my age. I have to be in an established company and I have to go over there and let that be known because you can’t do this forever and as a woman, especially in your 30s, the majority of the fan base is like, ‘Okay, well it’s time for her to go about her way. What’s next for her?’” [H/T POST Wrestling]

Time is not by Jade Cargill’s side

During the same interview, the former AEW TBS Champion also mentioned that people would want to see the youngsters performing more. Thus, she had little time to establish herself as the top star.

“And let’s be real, people wanna see, regardless if they’re good or not, they wanna see that 20-something-year-old on TV rather than that 30-something-year-old woman on TV. So time is not on my side and I knew I had to make the best decision for me, but not just for me, my family. It gets no better than this. The front office is the front office and I think that’s the best way to sum up what it is and I trust the process. I have a WrestleMania match and again, the front office is the front office,” Jade Cargill said.
