It sounds like the longest reigning TBS Champion might be on her way out.
According to Fightful Select,
Jade Cargill is likely finished up with All Elite Wrestling, sources tell Fightful Select.
Jade Cargill made a return at this past week’s AEW Collision, and quickly set up a match with Kris Statlander for the TBS Championship. To the surprise of many, it was booked for Rampage, and SPOILER ALERT — Kris Statlander beat Jade Cargill clean in their rematch. We’re told by AEW sources that this is because as things stand at this moment, Cargill is finishing up with AEW, with the July 13 tapings in Cincinnati possibly being her last appearance.
Fightful has spoken to sources within both AEW and WWE that believe she is headed to WWE. We should specify that we haven’t heard of an official offer being made, and as is always the case, things can change in the world of pro wrestling, including a situation like this.
To be clear, we haven’t learned how long her AEW contract has left on it. We’d recently heard that there were option years in play, but hadn’t heard who held those options.
The wide rumor within rosters of both WWE and AEW is that Cargill will be heading to WWE.
We’ll update this as we get more.
Jade has been a pillar of All Elite Wrestling’s women’s division since winning the TBS title as carrying it for an astounding 508 days AND 60 straight wins before losing it to a returning Kris Statlander at Double or Nothing on May 28th, 2023.
Jade returned this past Saturday at Collision and challenged Kris Statlander to a rematch for the AEW TBS Title. That match takes place this Friday night on Rampage.
As always, Bodyslam will have more information as it becomes available.
