“So, you want me to reveal what we have in the works it seems like. [Laughs] So, listen, I think the fan base should be patient. I think they need to understand we’re making a diamond. We’re creating something that’s gonna be a legacy. We’re creating something that’s going to create echoes and waves throughout not just the wrestling culture, but pop culture and beyond. They’re setting me up for success, you shouldn’t rush success.
“I’ve been on TV in front of thousands of people several times, one thing I know how to do is entertain a crowd. And no one — no one — can say different. I can do that. The WWE Universe knows exactly what they’re doing. I trust them. I believe in this system. And when they see me in that ring, understand, there’s no turning back. [WWE]’s believing in everything I’m doing, given me everything that I could fathom. And I’m going to be ready. I’m already ready. But again, it’s on my time, and everybody should be patient. And when I come, just understand I’m taking over.”
I wish her nothing but the best, but I also don’t have my hopes up.
I actually like this approach they, or she is taking. There was a big deal when she signed for WWE and they could easily have just stuck her on Raw or Smackdown and let it go from there. However it seems all involved know they have a big name and a chance for something big with her in WWE.
I liked Cargill in AEW, and saw the slow build as something that would work over time. While it’s nice that WWE are also taking things slow, I worry that there is a lot of expectation on someone that, frankly, is still very green.
What she needs above everything else is ring time. She was building up slowly in AEW, and I can only assume she’s working her butt off in the PC, but she’s got a lot to do to justify the hype.
