During an exclusive interview with Metro UK, WWE’s Jade Cargill said she and Naomi wanted to take their No Holds Barred Match at July’s Evolution event to the extreme.
Cargill noted the two wanted to use mace and razor blades, but it was turned down by creative, due to safety concerns.
“There was so much we wanted to use that was asked. We wanted to use mace, that was going to be tough. And then we wanted to use razors, and that was going to be tough, but I welcome it! I wish we were able to use the mace. [But] we gotta think about the crowd, we don’t want anybody in the crowd to be maced, because mace goes so far…That would’ve been wild! The whole first front row would have been lit with mace!”
Cargill further added that she loves fan interaction and also said Naomi wanted some of the match to end up in the crowd.
“I love interacting with the crowd. One, you get your money’s worth. But two, it’s that moment that people bring back with them, and they forever talk about it.”
Cargill also went on to talk about how she slipped off the top rope during her match at last year’s Clash at the Castle PLE in Glasgow, Scotland.
“I’ve never failed in wrestling, was when I got on that top rope and I had failed. laughing with her head in her hands. Everybody backstage was comforting me, and I remember people were showing me their mishaps. I’m like, “Yeah, but you gotta understand, it’s my first one. It was on TV! Oh my gosh. And everybody’s like, “Jade, look, let me show you my time. This is mine and this is mine. You just have a target on your back”. But that was my most embarrassing moment.”
Cargill will be a part of WWE’s upcoming European events. The August 22 Friday Night SmackDown takes place in Dublin, Ireland and the next PLE, Clash in Paris is on Sunday, August 31.
