Tony Khan understands the star power that Jade Cargill brings to All Elite Wrestling
Jade Cargill is very early on in her wrestling career, but she provides an “IT factor” that cannot be taught in any school.
Speaking about her fast ascension to stardom, Tony Khan said she is well ahead of any schedule that anyone could have imagined given her inexperience, but Tony Khan credits that to a great coaching staff, and the intangible presence that she brings when she walks into a room.
"Absolutely. Jade is a star and I absolutely think she's far ahead of where anybody expected," said Tony on Barstool's Rasslin' podcast. "I think it's all down to her. We've tried to put good support and coaching around her and a lot of great people work with her on a regular basis. We have great coaching here. You know, when you have people on the full-time staff, Sonjay, Serena, QT, Dustin Rhodes, a lot of really good coaching, but also, Bryan Danielson has put in a lot of time and coaching as well. He's one of the best minds in professional wrestling and he sees the potential in Jade, too, and I asked him to work with her, and he was eager and excited to do it.
"So I think the sky's the limit for Jade. Her presentation is tremendous. Her instincts are awesome and she's got all the physical tools. Jade doesn't just pop a hardcore wrestling fan, Jade pops a casual audience, too," Tony continued. "The average person who isn't really watching wrestling but might be open to it will walk up to her and say like, 'Oh my God, you're the champion of wrestling?' Like, 'You look amazing. Oh my god, you're a pro wrestler?' I've walked around with some of the biggest names in pro wrestling and the person that the average fan walks over to because they don't they've never seen wrestling before. They're like, 'Oh my God,' to Jade. She looks like a star like you said. I totally agree with what you said, Brandon. I think she's got so much potential, and right now, I think she's way far ahead of what anybody would have expected for somebody so young in their wrestling career. She's a great athlete, a college athlete, a bodybuilder, a mom, and a great person. She's been awesome."
Jade Cargill is currently approaching her potential 30th victory, which she will look to obtain in a match with Marina Shafir.
Jade Cargill remains focused on perfecting the in-ring part of her craft before trying to level up to the Women's World Championship. Read more here.
