On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Jade Cargill recalled idolizing Chyna during her childhood and looking up to the late WWE Hall of Famer as her inspiration.
Cargill said, “The person I looked up to that gave me confidence was Chyna, and that’s being totally honest. I didn’t grow up seeing women who looked like me. I’ve been muscular my entire life. I have great genetics. However, I put in the work, let’s just add that in there too. But seeing her, and maybe she felt different, [but] what I seen was that she was out there owning the stage and taking no crap from anybody else.”
She continued, “She embraced how she looked. And I wasn’t familiar with that. It made me go out there and say, ‘I look damn good. I know who I am. I could care less about what you think.’”
Cargill teamed up with Bianca Belair and Naomi to defeat Damage CTRL (Dakota Kai, Asuka, and Kairi Sane) in a six-woman tag team match at WrestleMania 40 (Night One).
