Jade Cargill Admits She Missed Key WWE Experience After Skipping NXT

TLDR

Jade Cargill has admitted she missed key experiences by skipping NXT and going directly to WWE's main roster, citing challenges with the demanding travel schedule, building locker room relationships, and gaining co-workers' trust in her character and move set. After previously calling AEW "my NXT," Cargill explained in an April 2026 interview that she went from working one day a week to being constantly on the go, and lacked the years of shared history that many WWE stars built during their NXT tenure. She noted that while the adjustment was difficult, she's gradually earning more trust from WWE and feels they're recognizing her ability to work without a script.
