Jade Cargill retained the AEW TBS Title against Taya Valkyrie at the AEW Double or Nothing event from Las Vegas, Nevada, in May, only to lose it to a returning Kris Statlander moments later, snapping Jade’s 60-0 winning streak.
She hasn’t been seen on AEW television since the bout, with her reportedly taking time off. Around the time of this match, Cargill teased on Twitter that she likes being out of the wrestling bubble.
She added she might stay there while being out in Hollywood and indicated that there are no plans for her to return to AEW TV anytime soon. Cargill most recently tweeted this interesting message:
There is no top there is no finish line, l'm on some get my mind right for my right money type ish….

While speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted her AEW status is still unclear.
“Nothing. Nothing past she’s considering not coming back, is what she said, which was the last thing we heard. She wanted to take some time off. Sometimes I feel like, boy, it’s like they pushed her and pushed her and pushed her and pushed her, and they never put her in the big matches. Then she’s gone. Like a multi-year push, and yet they gave her that one belt, but she never, but I don’t know if that, there’s like, again, did she never wrestle Britt [Baker]? You know, she never wrestled Tony Storm. Almost like they kept them away from her, now she’s gone. So will she be back? I mean, she’s got a storyline to come back to. I mean, they didn’t, you know, she lost, but she lost in a way where she had a gripe, but she’s gone. She never made the gripe. I don’t know what the future holds for her. She’s the only one who probably knows. Yeah. I mean, Maybe she’s still figuring it out.”
