AEW has signed Jade Cargill to a multi-year contract.

AEW announced the signing this evening, which comes after Cargill made her debut on last night's AEW Dynamite episode. Video from the debut can be seen above. Cargill came out to confront Cody Rhodes and tease a possible AEW appearance by NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal. She also had a confrontation with Cody's wife, Brandi Rhodes.

"I joined AEW because here I have a voice," Jade in a press release issued today. "I'm ready to shake up the women's division, and I'm going to flip this promotion on its head."

Cargill previously trained under QT Marshall at his Nightmare Factory, and at the Face 2 Face Wrestling School owned by Richard Borger and Heath Slater.

AEW President & CEO Tony Khan praised Cargill as an exciting addition to the women's roster.

"We're committed to expanding the AEW women's division by signing great athletes," Khan said in the press release. "Jade is an amazing athlete, and she's an exciting addition to our women's roster. I'm confident that fans will enjoy getting to know Jade's strong personality and watching her development as a wrestler after her surprising confrontation with Cody and Brandi Rhodes last night on Dynamite."

November 12, 2020 ? AEW today announced a multi-year deal with rising wrestling sensation Jade Cargill, who made an electric debut last night on AEW DYNAMITE.

During last night's live show on TNT, Cody Rhodes was speaking about wanting another shot at MJF when he was dramatically interrupted by Jade, who proceeded to run down Cody's "Giant Killer" moniker.

"I joined AEW because here I have a voice," said Jade. "I'm ready to shake up the women's division, and I'm going to flip this promotion on its head."

Jade, who played basketball at Jacksonville University in Jacksonville, Fla., brings a high level of athleticism and intensity to the AEW women's division. With her background as a professional trainer and explosive demeanor on the mic, Jade is poised to make a powerful impression inside and outside the ring.

"We're committed to expanding the AEW women's division by signing great athletes," said Tony Khan, CEO and GM of AEW. "Jade is an amazing athlete, and she's an exciting addition to our women's roster. I'm confident that fans will enjoy getting to know Jade's strong personality and watching her development as a wrestler after her surprising confrontation with Cody and Brandi Rhodes last night on Dynamite."
