Jade Cargill was a little emotional after winning the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships with Bianca Belair at Backlash: France. Cargill explained that she wants to set an example for her seven-year-old daughter.
Belair and Cargill challenged Asuka and Kairi Sane, of Damage CTRL, for the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles on Saturday night in Lyon. After a back-and-forth match, the recently formed tag team defeated The Kabuki Warriors to win their first WWE Women's Tag Team Championships.
In a post-Backlash press conference, the newly crowned champs were asked about being role models for young women and young women of color. Cargill stated she wanted to be an inspiration to little kids around the world, especially to her seven-year-old daughter, Bailey Quinn.
"It means everything. I have a seven-year-old at home, and I want her to know she can do any and everything regardless of the obstacles ahead of her. We are out here taking things down every day and making historical moments like we are doing now. In the French culture, we are here to show and represent that regardless of the skin tone, regardless of how you look, regardless of where you come from, you can do anything and everything, you just put your mind to it," Cargill said.
