Popular WWE star discusses her friendship with CM Punk
Women's Tag Team Champion Jade Cargill recently opened up about her real-life friendship with CM Punk.
Cargill and Punk used to perform in All Elite Wrestling, but both made the jump to WWE in 2023. Speaking with Sportskeeda Wrestling's Senior Editor Bill Apter and Dr. Chris Featherstone in an exclusive interview, Cargill praised Punk as a human being. The 32-year-old noted that Punk was a straight shooter, and his energy was infectious.
"I mean, he's [CM Punk] a straight-forth guy," Cargill said. "Like, I don't know. He's just infectious. His energy's infectious. He wants everybody to do great. He's a straight shooter. If he sees something he doesn't like, he's the type of person to come over and tell me, 'Jade, that was cr*p,' or whatever he'll say in his form of words." [From 03:57 – 04:14]
