AEW just keeps hitting home runs
-Huge Wembley show -TK finally grew a set and fired Phil -Flexed on Punk by having a top tier show in his hometown -"And take Ace Steel with you!" -No more Jade
It just keeps getting better

She’s got a ton of potential and I think she would be a huge get for WWE. Though to be honest I don’t think she’s got much of a long term future in wrestling, she definitely has such a cool look that she would be in demand for movie roles etc

I will no doubt catch some push back on this.
This works out especially better for AEW because Jade absoloutley IMO sucks...yea she looks good all well and fine but she was a complete hinderence to the TBS title and while that largely falls on TK for booking that she did no favors by just sucking as an in ring talent.
WWE is gonna give her EVERYTHING and more just based on how she looks and it is whatever.
TK would be best going back to Kenny Omegas original intended idea for AEW's womens division and largely revolving around Joshi talent because WWE is gonna throw money at other women on his roster like a Statlander and absoloutley throw everything to get Mercedes back eventually , but the Joshi scene is one WWE is never likely gonna throw any real attention and money at and he could take advantage of that wide open pool of talent that give you 1000% more than a Jade Cargill was ever gonna give you.
And also this is my demand for more Emi Sakura.

Maintain that Jade would be a lot more interesting if they'd had her react to a loss and show more vulnerability, have an actual arc and character. If that never happens in AEW will be a shame, she has a lot of potential but so far we've only really seen one mode from her.

Standard negotiating tactic. Talk up one place to get more money. Jade in the PC for a year at most, my Zod, there would be no stopping her. Rhea vs Jade, Jade vs Bianca would be PLE main events. A PC is something that AEW needs to invest in.

Something big must have changed. She said before that she wasn’t really keen on going to WWE. They hopefully offered a lighter schedule and cut out that culty nonsense

Jade very well could become a huge star in WWE. But before she does she needs to improve. Cargill is difficult to watch, let’s be honest. Great look…great image…seemed to work hard to improve but didn’t make huge improvements which is needed.
Jade leaving to WWE might become a big deal for WWE but it really isn’t much of a loss to AEW.

So if it happens, this is the first time an AEW grown star has gone to WWE right? Would you count Pillman Jr as an AEW grown star? Because he made the jump a week or so ago.

I'd say going forward, any talent in AEW that are interested in being crossover stars in TV, Film or other more conventional media ventures will probably see jumping to WWE as a better move now, as opposed to before now that they are propped up by Endeavor and all that.

She needs time in the PC, and with guys like HBK and Regal helping her can only improve her. I don’t think she’ll ever be great but there’s enough talent there to carry her to something decent, maybe.

Honestly, I feel bad for Smart Mark Sterling. Jade's his primary "main roster TV" act and that dude deserves more than just managing Tony Nese on ROH. He's a great heel.

Can't say this bothers me as a fan, as I've never really dug Jade's work and had wanted to see other women get more against her (e.g. Kiera, Ruby, and others), but I get why this is a kick in the balls for AEW to some level: they invested a lot in getting Jade over, and if she's just bolting then yeah, that sucks for them.
No problem with Jade getting whatever deal she feels is best for her (she's a model who married a Major League Baseball player, money might not be even that much of a concern), but Khan might be getting his first taste of what can happen when you put so much into one act and then it's suddenly here today, gone tomorrow. Guess we'll see how this unfolds.
But yeah, never really dug her overall work, so it doesn't irk me much, personally. Her aura, pump kick, and finisher might be enough to have her hitting the ground running in WWE, though.

I think it’s just one of the realities of the business now. WWE tried to get the Elite and couldn’t but got Jade instead which seems like a good exchange in terms of building a talent. Like, it’s a blow but not something that can’t be bounced back from.
I’m more interested in what this WWE deal pertains. Like, I could very easily see a scenario where she doesn’t do house shows and just sticks to main shows and honestly, WWE would have to think about deals like this long term to acquire name talent.

It'd make all the sense in the world to put her on Smackdown where she can get the most eyes on her...but I want them to keep her and Bianca away from each other....with the right build, that match headlines night one of Mania easily.....I just don't think they need to cross paths yet....
