    I think the obvious comparisons people will make is between Jade and Bianca (who's assigned to SD), so I think they'd keep them separate for now.

    If Becky retains against Tiffany and Tegan, I can see the idea of Jade being the next challenge in NXT. But I think they're treating Jade bigger as someone who would bide her time in NXT, and there's no one I can see down there as a threat to her, unless they strap Tiffany to a rocket.

    It could be for Rhea's challenge, though. The only challengers on Raw that you can buy as threats for Rhea are Becky (she's busy), Raquel (been done) and Nia (God no). Maybe Liv when she comes back from injury/sabbatical, but that's been done, too.

    Cargill….. can’t wrestle.

    I mean that’s a little overstated but she’s not ready for the big time. She needs to go to the PC. She’s not much of a talker either, didn’t she have a mouth piece in AEW?

    They did a big announcement for Gable Stevenson too and he’s in the PC. She’s got all the potential in the world, let the machine coach her up for a few months.

    Wasn't Mark Sterling or whatever his name is her "manager" in AEW?

    Straight to the main roster, for reasons I still can’t fathom.

    I'll give her the benefit of the doubt. Jade showed promise in AEW, but she didn't get a whole lot of opportunities to grow. She was like prime Goldberg in WCW. Just fed a bunch of squash/interference matches that didn't let her progress. Her farewell against Statlander was pretty good.

    Certainly more intrigued by Jade than I am for anything involving Nia Jax's return.

    She debuts in and wins the Royal Rumble maybe?

    Gable Steveson had a heart procedure immediately after signing with WWE, though.

    NXT doing a hood job pretending Ali never existed with the four-way to face Dom. But that was a wild four-way. Looking forward to seeing Trick get his shot on his own.

    Here we go. It's the big AEW-to-WWE addition that everybody's been talking about.

    Could be. I mean she doesnt need to be on NXT TV and theoretically she could learn just as much wrestling like Nattie or Candice on the house show loops but

    You look at the army of women that can work they’ve churned out of the PC the last 3-5 years. The method WORKS. Why wouldn’t you apply it to someone with the natural gifts she has?!?

    Is WWE going to let her use her real name?

    One would think so, especially since they introduced her as such, but they also apparently applied for a trademark of "Jaida Parker," so who knows.
