Booker T's Take on Jade Cargill:
Booker T wasted no time in praising Cargill. He stated, "What can people say now?" He'd previously predicted Cargill's success, even forecasting that she would "break all records." Now that she's the champion, Booker T seems to be relishing the moment, essentially asking the critics, "What do you have to say now?"
He anticipates the naysayers will question the speed at which she received the title, but his focus remains on Cargill's potential. "She's a star, she's a megastar, she's a superstar. She's everything that WWE is." Booker T sees this as just the beginning for Cargill, offering his congratulations and emphasizing that the journey is "onward and upward."
Cargill's Ongoing Learning Curve:
Booker T acknowledges that Cargill is still learning and growing in the ring. He emphasizes the importance of continuous learning in the wrestling business. He credits Cargill for listening to the critics, overcoming the doubters, and rising above the negativity. He highlights the prevalence of online negativity and the importance of ignoring the haters. And this is the part most people miss... the mental fortitude needed to succeed!
