Jade Cargill finished up with AEW following last week’s Rampage, where she put over TBS Champion Kris Statlander in a rematch.
Some in AEW believe Cargill is heading to WWE for the NXT brand instead of being sent straight to the main roster, while others believe she is going to the main roster because of her contract.
As previously reported, WWE has already started working on creative for Cargill. She is also slated to report to the Performance Center for training this week.
While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted the former AEW star got a big money deal from WWE.
“And she’ll get a vocal push because the money to get her, you have to give her a chance to get over because they’re not paying what they would pay a normal person to start there. It’s not like it’s Charlotte Flair money or anything like that or Becky Lynch money, but for a newcomer to the company, it’s much higher than they usually go. So she got a good deal, and they’re talking about her a lot more than they would talk about somebody bringing up that they brought up from NXT. So she ain’t going to be Tegan Nox or somebody who’s brought up or Candice LeRae. That’s just kind of brought up, and she’s going to be.”
Meltzer later added, “Well, she is signed to a main roster deal. She’s not going in there, but she’s not going in there for $68,000 a year.”
