She tweeted and deleted a complaint about her lack of TV time and only getting 30 second backstage segments half of the time.
Not sure if it's real frustration with management though like Andrade or Miro, kayfabe frustration with management like Eddie or MJF or the weird grey area like FTR.

So I don't know if it's a precursor to anything, but Kris Statlander is in town for Revolution weekend and well enough to do appearances and stuff like the bowling charity game.
Obviously, there's a huge difference between "being able to do a charity bowling game" and "able to wrestle again," but I hope it's a good sign her return to the ring is sooner than later. Only reason I'm putting that here is because Kris was apparently supposed to be the one to break Jade's streak before her ACL tear.

Zero Hour that could happen too.

She’s still months away from returning according to a Fightful update earlier this week.

We couldn't even find five minutes for her to kill someone on this show?

This dreadful title reign really needs to end...
They better not be planning to have her beat Taya in the next few weeks.

Taya might be the one most likely to end it
We got several Canada shows coming up, she got a big time pop. Might be time because Stats now coming back for months yet according to reports. And Jade needs something fresh to do.

Honestly I can't stand any of the "holds the title for eleventy trillion years and never remotely is threatened in matches or angles and all the finishes of matches f***ing blow" title reigns and there's like thirteen of them going at once rn across wrestling, there's just nothing to get narratively invested in since they're all missing massive chunks of basic storytelling conventions to my story tastes

At this point I honestly could give two shits about who beats her for the title. You can have the woman in concessions come down and beat her for it. I don't care. Just get it off her already.

Has there been a rationale given for why they don't have jade wrestle that much (or even long matches)?

Like, Jade could have won it back in a month, and I'd have still thought that would be a major improvement on what we've got here. Jade is money, but the belt and streak have done everything they can for her. She needs to move on to other roles, like some actual angles.

I doubt Taya could be build up quickly enough for her winning the title eliciting a reaction more than "thank god it's over". She's great and all, but someone like Statlander winning would lead to genuine emotion.

Jade doesn't need to work longer matches. She's a special attraction and making her wrestle long matches isn't going to help her mystique, regardless of whether she is a five-star worker or a one-star one. I don't think any of her matches should ever go above five minutes no matter how skilled she gets.
I also think that whenever Jade is booked to have a short match on TV it shouldn't be the sole in-ring time given to the women's division but I guess that's a different subject.

My personal preference at this point is that Toni or Ruby beats her for it and that's what propels Jade into mixing it up with the "world title" level women's wrestlers. Even if she's not totally ready, I think they need to get her out of this weird "Jadeverse" she has going on.

They've given her everything the past two years and she's still greener than spinach.
This is nothing more than an vanity plate to keep her happy just like Booker T.

If they are aware-afraid she cannot wrestle long matches and wanna treat her as nothing but a special attraction then IMO she should not be holding any title let alone one this long.
There are plenty of other women on this roster who can do more holding that title than Jade can whose reign feels like a vanity reign and never meant to have any sort of purpose but to keep her happy like Chrom said.
REALLY hoping Taya wrecks her shit and wins the title.
