is glad that Cody Rhodes had her back in All Elite Wrestling.
During an interview with CBS Sports’ Shakiel Mahjouri, Jade Cargill took some time to praise Cody Rhodes as someone who checked in on her and made sure she was adapting to the wrestling business in the right way. Cody is not currently with AEW, but his influence can still be seen in his work helping some of the talent on the current roster. Cargill noted that the wrestling business found her, not the other way around, and Cody understood and tried to help her navigate the role she was put in.
“It was a blessing. After my Shaq match, I feel like a lot of people kind of went off their ways. He was one of the people that checked up on me and my mental and to make sure I was OK and to help me understand the business,” Cargill said. “Understand [that] the business found me. I didn’t find the business. I was just thrown into it and he understood that. There were other people, I’m not casting them out, but he was one of the people that texted me daily about my mental. In this sport, mental is very important. He’d check if I was getting what I needed. If I was getting the training that I needed, if I was able to speak and have the voice that I wanted.
“Cody is one of the people that’s for the people. For the people that can’t speak up. I’m the type of person that doesn’t complain. I just roll with the punches. I just go with the flow. That’s me and I like taking on challenges. He’s a great person. He’s a great individual. He was very much in my corner. He’s a great guy. He’s a phenomenal father. He stepped into new shoes. He’s a phenomenal father. He’s a phenomenal person in general, and he was one of the people that went to bat for me, for a lot of things.”
Rhodes’ next move in the wrestling business is still yet to be decided, but it’s clear that he helped Cargill walk down the right path in her burgeoning career.
