Khan opens up about his negotiations with Jade Cargill.
The newest signee to join WWE was former AEW TBS Champion Jade Cargill. She kicked off her on-screen career with All Elite Wrestling and became the first-ever and longest-reigning TBS Champion in company history.
Cargill made the media rounds following her WWE signing being made public and she expressed that the decision was something she went back and forth on over the ‘past couple months.’ AEW President Tony Khan further touched on Cargill’s decision to leave the company during the WrestleDream media scrum.
Khan stated that he did negotiate with Cargill and he made a ‘big and fair’ offer. He added that Cargill asked for a bigger offer so he went higher and he thought that would seal the deal. He was surprised that Cargill did not rejoin the company because he went much higher than what she originally asked for.
He reiterated that he wanted to give Cargill a classy sendoff from AEW and she’s always welcome in the company.
