"It was electrifying" - Jade Cargill sums up her experience on first WWE European tour
Jade Cargill was one of many WWE Superstars who toured Europe last week and performed in several countries. She recently shared what it was like to wrestle outside the United States.
"Big Money" Jade wrestled in Italy, Austria, and France last week. At WWE Backlash, she and Bianca Belair teamed up to defeat The Kabuki Warriors and become the new WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.
During an interview on The Babyfaces Podcast, Cargill was asked about her experience on her first European tour. In response, the 31-year-old said she enjoyed it and was really shocked at how energetic the crowd was.
"It was electrifying. I would love to go to Europe again, to be honest. I wouldn't mind being there for a while. The crowd was just unmatched. I [have] just never seen anything like it and just going from WrestleMania to Backlash, it made it a little bit easier being that WrestleMania is the hottest stage, the biggest stage in pro wrestling. So for me to go from WrestleMania to Backlash, I was more calm, I was more alive, I was more at center with myself and the locker room was on fire."
The SmackDown star further disclosed that the WWE locker room felt "relaxed" on the day of Backlash France.
"The locker room was excited. It was only five matches on the card, so it was more of a relaxed day. You're not rushing, you're not being pulled left, right, up, and down. You were just ready," Cargill said. [H/T: POST Wrestling]
