Welcome to the Busted Open Podcast. This is Dave LaGrecca.

On today's episode myself and Thunder Rosa get more into the signing of Jade Cargill to the WWE.

Thunder gives us her wrestler of the week which is Julie Ahart and then we spar with Justin LaBarr and preview wrestle dream right now on the Busted Open Podcast.

I want to get your take on Jade Cargill. Obviously you know Jade Cargill well. You know wrestle together in AEW.

I've mentioned about that I feel like Jade excellent person like not only inside the ring but outside the ring.

This is a big acquisition for the WWE.

It's huge. Just let's start with the fact that her video did almost over 14 million views on social media.

Just the buzz that she that she is in WWE. It's incredible. They amount of publicity that she received in the last three days.

It's it's an amount of all like I can't you can't you can't even measure it like I know there is I think Paul I talk to Paul yesterday.

He's like just tell me something tell tell the listener something you remember about Jade and I can tell you I remember when she first came on her first training with all of us when we were in daily city in Jacksonville.

I remember she I mean she always she always wears this beautiful two pieces for to exercise and I saw her and she came and she did some stuff.

And this at a time when I was like really really like just like it's scouting for women for mission pro and I just looked at her and I looked at a couple of my co workers and I was like she's really a star.

I don't know she was going to get signed or anything we didn't know nothing. And I was like she's the next one like she just have it like everything her looked at the hair everything about her called like superstar.

And then I started talking to her and stuff and and she is one of the smartest people I know very, very.

Like also minded very focused on her goals and and what she want to do and the whole entire time the way that she talked about herself her career was moving forward.

It didn't matter who was in front of her. She knew what she wanted and when she first signed for double for AW it was because at the moment that's what it was going to be good for her and her career.

And and all this time happened and I'm telling you like I just saw I just saw her evolving in like in her entrances and the way that she did relationships that she has with so many people outside professional wrestling that really also hope her to like establish herself as the star that she is.

And that is so important for so many of us that are trying to make it outside of professional wrestling, but she was already established as as a fitness Mongol for say because she had her programs and stuff and I am very, very happy for her that she make this decision for her.

She make this decision for her future and and I know is going to pay off for her like big time. They are very invested in her very, very invested in her.

And I think it was on no brainer for her, honestly, to make this decision, especially if she wanted to you know do WrestleMania as if she wanted to wrestle some of the really established big stars and and WWE so I am very, very happy for her because she deserves this opportunity.
