About this episode
Jade Cargill is the current and first AEW TBS Champion, a feat she accomplished with just 23 matches under her belt! Jade chronicles her journey to pro wrestling, her rapid ascent at AEW, and how she feels about “learning on the fly on the job!” She talks about her WWE tryout (before she had any wrestling training at all), the limited training she did do between that tryout and signing with AEW, and why every match is a still a learning experience. She details her first-ever match which happened to be with Cody Rhodes, Shaquille O’Neal, and Red Velvet on live TV! She speaks to the help she’s received from Chris Jericho, what she’s currently learning from Billy Gunn, and why she calls Chyna and Macho Man Randy Savage her biggest influences.
