Cargill, a standout performer who has earned accolades as an industry-renowned talent, will begin training today at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando.

From the initial ESPN story, it's not yet known whether Cargill will head straight to the main roster or whether she'll first have a stint in NXT. Given recent rumblings that Jade will be earning a significant amount should she sign with WWE, one has to imagine that any run in NXT won't be a particularly long one for the hugely promising powerhouse.

That Bitch was rumoured to have departed AEW after her loss to TBS Champion Kris Statlander earlier this month; a loss which came hot on the heels of Jade returning to AEW programming for the first time since dropping that TBS Title to Statlander at Double or Nothing back in May.

Prior to those two losses to Stat, of course, Cargill had amassed an impressive 60-0 undefeated streak and held the TBS Championship for a mammoth 508 days.

With a background in fitness modelling and Division I basketball, Jade Cargill made her pro wrestling bow back in March 2021 as she teamed with Shaquille O'Neal against Cody Rhodes and Red Velvet.
