During a recent appearance on the Gabby AF podcast, Nick Aldis pointed out that Jade Cargill has been itching to become a regular part of the main roster. The 37-year-old expressed his happiness over the former AEW TBS Champion deciding to sign with SmackDown.
"Jade has been absolutely itching to get started on the main roster. Obviously, I'm very glad that she's hung her hat on SmackDown with the Blue Brand. I'm not surprised, but certainly pleased that she made the right decision," he said.
Nick Aldis went on to warn Cargill of several superstars who feel SmackDown's recent signee has been getting extra attention. The former TNA World Heavyweight Champion believes that she might receive a harsh welcome.
"I'd like to think that everyone will be professional, but I know that there are quite a few ladies on our roster who might have some choice words for Jade because they obviously feel like she's been getting a lot of attention and they realize that sometimes the best way to welcome someone to the bigs is to kind of show them what's in store for them if they're going to compete in the bigs. I'm sure Jade has plenty to say. I think the WWE Universe has been, you know, ever since the Royal Rumble especially, have been really waiting to embrace Jade as part of WWE. I think that the best is very much yet to come with Ms. Cargill, so I'm looking forward to it," said Aldis [H/T: Wrestling News.co]
