Jade Cargill has explained why she stopped doing technical wrestling.
The wrestling abilities of the reigning WWE Women's Champion has been a topic of discussion among fans recently after multiple names suffered injuries while working with her. People have questioned whether sending the former AEW star to NXT would have been the better decision, considering that she has defended her title only once since winning it back in November last year.
The female star seemingly addressed the criticism of her limited abilities in the ring during a recent interview with Complex. Jade Cargill mentioned how she learned a lot of technical wrestling while working with Daniel Bryan at Tony Khan's promotion. She had to abandon those lessons however, because she got no reaction from fans:
Daniel Bryan taught me so much technical wrestling and I tried it. I tried to do some technical wrestling, it’s funny because when I tried technical wrestling — I have tried it, go back at my old stuff at my previous company. I tried it, I had no reaction out of fans.
That's What They Like: Jade Cargill
Jade Cargill claimed that fans do not want to see a wrestler her size doing technical wrestling. The WWE star explained that what people like is seeing her talking smack and throwing people around:
I learned so much, I was training with him every week. You know what fans want to see? Me picking somebody up and throwing somebody around, me talking my smack. They don’t want to see me on the ground grappling.
I know how to grapple, I know how to do it, they don’t want to see that. They cheer, they boo, they get up out of their seats, they do what they need to do when I’m pounding to the ground, that’s what they like.
Later in the interview, Cargill noted that the two people whose advice she is applying to her performance are Booker T and Billy Gunn. Jade also said that she is a big girl who looks good whooping ass of other talent and there is no reason she should be going toe to toe with smaller wrestlers.
