WWE No Longer Views Jade Cargill On Same Level As Rhea Ripley
During Wrestling Observer Radio, Meltzer broke down Cargill’s loss to Stratton in under seven minutes, calling attention to how the company’s booking of her has changed drastically in just a few months.

>“Even up to, you know, I would say, two months, three months ago… You know, I remember just having some messaging with someone very high up in WWE and talking about the top people in the future. One of the names that was on it was Jade. You know, from the day Jade came in, Jade was not brought in to be a 50/50 wrestler. Jade was not brought in to be a mid-card wrestler. You could see the way she was brought in — she was brought in to be a superstar. you know, and, you know, like when I was told the women’s future of the company, it was Rhea Ripley and Jade Cargill. So she lost tonight. She lost with a moonsault. You know, someone like that… it’s not the loss and it’s not the end of the world for her or anything like that. You know, but the person who I was told about two months ago is not losing in whatever it was, seven minutes to a moonsault to Tiffany Stratton.”

>“You can tell — you know, and everyone will deny this — you know, but by how they booked it… I don’t think anyone is talking about her in the same light as Rhea Ripley today. You know, And they were. When I saw that finish… You know, they don’t see her as The Ultimate Warrior anymore, put it that way. And they did at first.”

This was such a dumb decision to bring her to the main roster. If you watched her in AEW for 5 seconds, the first thing that comes to your mind is that she needed to learn how to work, and then if you watched any of her segments, you could tell that she needed to learn how to cut better promos. Idk why they didn't put her in NXT for a year or two.

Jade was brought in when diversity hiring was at its peak no? Now that meritocracy is slowly coming back her stock is hitting all time lows. So, she either learns how to cut a promo or she puts a obese smark pleaser match, if she doesn't she's fucked.

Jade can't act, she can't promo, she can't wrestle.
All she has is a really sculpted body

Triple H tried to make her legitimate through booking but its not working out. She would have been better off being a Goldberg-like attraction though I'm not sure audiences these days would buy into it any more

She looked pretty strong for most of it. The kayfabe mistake was her pinning Tiffany close to the ropes and then going for a Jaded from the top rope which Tiffy countered.

Do you guys even watch the shit you talk about? Jade hit her finisher and pulled Tiffany's legs back too far so that her feet ended up in the ropes and stopped the pin. They talked about it and showed a replay after the match. That's how you protect the loser of a face-face match.

Jade's main appeal has always been her dimes look. It's not hard to see how a promoter can see her and think they can make her a big star but unfortunately she's too lacking in the other areas and hasn't improved fast enough. I do think she has gotten a bit better in the ring but she's still not particularly good.

Jade just hasn't shown any improvement since her AEW run and it's clear she isn't going to be more than what she is already. I don't know why WWE signed her when it was obvious that she doesn't care. I almost hope she makes it in Hollywood so I don't have to see her anymore.

I can't believe she unironically wants to break into hollywood when wrestling promos are essentially acting on easy mode

WWE didn't view her as a big star the moment they saw her in the ring.
They got carnied into thinking she had a lot of training and was professional.
What they signed to that contract was the female Goldberg, with even less training than he had and with a bigger ego.

Nice cope. They knew exactly what they were paying for, and that was to stick it to AEW, which was smart overall. They only ones who got carnied in the situation are Tony and Jade. Tony, for losing his female Warrior due to Cody. And Jade, for thinking she'd get Cody treatment and not realizing she was just a pawn.

I mentioned this in a previous Jade thread, but these retards should have thought long and hard about signing her. She's green as hell and doesn't plan on learning to get better. She thinks that since she has cameras on her- even more now that she's in WWE, it automatically makes her a valuable asset to the company and raises her chances of getting acting roles because she has better connections. But Jade fails to realize that just looking fit won't get you anywhere really. Unless you're the israeli rat known as Gal Gadot, you need to actually know how to act in order to get roles.

2 years of WWE booking is all it takes to destroy a giftwrapped MADE superstar.

In GOTG he talks like a caveman. In Blade Runner 2049, he speaks a couple of sentences, and has a big fight, in Dune, he yells every line. It's still about his look.

They signed her to maintain an AEW exodus, and she signed because Cody promised her the world.

AEW for all of it's booking faults, like refusing to pivot on Jade's long title run because it HAD to be Kris who beat her, did otherwise book around Jade's weaknesses well. Simple squash matches most of the time, then paired with one of the more experienced women who could carry her and help her improve. Her last match in AEW was her best one there because Kris carried but also because Jade had worked through trial by fire by this point. Importantly though, this way of booking still had her feeling like a big deal.

WWE's method for covering for someone being green is to just put them in a tag team and stand on the apron. Everything about Jade being special faded because she became just another face in the crowd of a forgotten division rather than a special attraction. And ultimately she's still remained at the same spot where she can only work longer matches with women good enough to carry good matches out of most wrestlers.

The "special attraction woman becomes just another bimbo" route has also happened with Jordynne Grace in NXT.

Meanwhile, Queen Aminata and Thekla put on bangers on throwaway Collision tapings. This just proves that the PC can't create stars, only the indies can.
