Jade Cargill Heading To WWE Imminently

Jade Cargill AEW

Jade Cargill is WWE bound.

Fightful Select first reported that Jade Cargill is likely to finish up with AEW not long after returning to TV for the company on Collision where she first helped and then attacked the woman who defeated her for the TBS Championship, Kris Statlander.

A match between the two was booked for Rampage to air on the 15th of September – the bout was filmed on the 13th of September – which was sooner than many anticipated. That is down to the fact that Cargill’s time in AEW was believed to be coming to an end with the star looking likely to head to WWE. And it seems that is exactly what is about to happen

Jade Cargill due in WWE immediately

PWInsider has now reported that Cargill’s AEW deal is believed to have expired, leaving her to work elsewhere immediately. The report notes that the former TBS Champion is due to start in WWE this week when she reports to the Performance Center in Orlando, Florida.

The unofficial hiring freeze in place in WWE due to the impending takeover by Endeavor has ended and Nia Jax has already returned to the company. It is an exciting time for the sports entertainment giant as it is now merged with UFC under the TKO Group’s umbrella, potentially meaning even greater exposure for WWE Superstars including Jade Cargill no matter what brand in the company she lands on.

Some may find this recent development surprising given that Cargill recently was quoted as saying that there was “no other place I would want to be” in relation to her wrestling career as she heaped praise on AEW boss Tony Khan.
