4 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Rampage (Oct 21)

2. Is Jade Cargill Going Babyface Or..?

Someone needs to pin Tony Khan down behind the curtain and ask him outright who's supposed to be the babyface in his TBS Title storyline. Jade Cargill is as natural a heel as you're gonna get, but even she's way more likeable than Nyla 'Bum Ass Thief' Rose.

The entire feud is sucking wind.

Nyla stealing Cargill's rental car is another d*ck move from a supposed face, and Vickie Guerrero's obnoxious laugh is unbearable heel 101. Also, Jade kicking lumps out of hapless "security guards" is playing before better reactions from crowds than anything involving the actual wrestlers themselves.

Yes, AEW had to do something more than endless squash feuds for Jade, but this wasn't it. There's no cheeky Eddie Guerrero-style charm to Rose's hijinks, and people are getting more kicks out of Cargill smashing extras.
