Booker T Not Interested in Managing Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair

Jade Cargill’s momentum soared following her standout performance in the Women’s Royal Rumble, extending into impactful appearances on RAW and SmackDown. Partnering with Bianca Belair, they secured the Women’s Tag Team Titles at Backlash, solidifying their status as a formidable duo. However, despite their success, Booker T isn’t really interested in managing them at all.

During the Backlash Premium Live Event, Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair challenged Asuka and Kairi Sane for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles. Despite The Kabuki Warriors’ best efforts to retain their titles, they were outmatched by the sheer power and athleticism of Cargill and Belair. Ultimately, Cargill and Belair’s strength proved too much, and they emerged as the new champions once the dust settled.

While speaking on the latest episode of the Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T delved into his thoughts on potentially managing Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair as a new iteration of Harlem Heat. While he admired the idea and the dynamic duo they would make, Booker T made it clear that he has no desire to return to managing in WWE.

“I love the idea of it, but I don’t want to be managing nobody, you know what I mean? I really don’t. I love Bianca and Jade, and both of them wearing that fire red definitely made me feel, you know, something special about my time with Harlem Heat. And just watching those two, they’re a very dynamic duo.

“But no, I don’t want to manage anybody. I love watching it from an outside perspective, like they say, that 30,000 [foot] view perspective. I like being able to watch it, man. I don’t want to be on the road. I don’t want to travel, you know, and be going from city to city to city to city, state to state, country to country. I don’t want to do that anymore. I really don’t. I’m happy, I’m content just doing NXT and being a part of the NXT crew. I’m just so happy.”

We’ll have to wait and see how WWE plans to book Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair as the new Women’s Tag Team Champions in the coming weeks. In the meantime, Cargill’s more invested in the Queen of The Ring tournament and fans do want her to win the whole thing as well. Booker T may not want to mange the duo, but he’ll continue to cheer them on.
