The AEW TBS Title Tournament is currently underway, and the finals will be held next month to coincide with Dynamite’s move to TBS from TNT.
Tony Khan recently appeared on Busted Open Radio to talk about the ongoing TBS Title Tournament. He also spoke about Jade Cargill, and how WWE Hall of Famer Mark Henry has been working with her.
He went on to state that he believes that Jade Cargill is clearly this year’s AEW Rookie of the Year.
“A number of people have come up to talk to me about that lately and I am so glad that so many people have liked it. When I sat down and put the bracket together, I really felt like it would be a great way to build towards Dynamite making that huge move at the end of the year to TBS. I think it has only created more anticipation for the move. I am very excited about the semi-finals.”
“The crazy thing is when you see Jade. Not only is Jade a beautiful woman but one of the most dangerous and powerful competitors in pro wrestling. I think Thunder Rosa is going to have her hands full in the semi-final with Jade. I think she’s clearly the rookie of the year. I think she is definitely one of the favorites to potentially be the TBS Champion.”
“Mark, you have been a mentor to Jade and offered her a lot of great advice about how to use her size and her power advantage to dominate opponents,” he reflected. “It seems like she’s taken that advice to heart and used it very well.”
“I think she’s clearly the rookie of the year,” Khan claimed. “I think she is definitely one of the favorites to potentially be the TBS Champion.”
