The tournament finals will take place on January 5th, 2022, with AEW Dynamite premiering on TBS.To prove how much of a test the match was for the undefeated Cargill, the contest against Thunder Rosa was the longest bout of Jade Cargill's AEW career so far.Jade Cargill had a helping hand in the post-match beat down of Thunder RosaHowever, Jade Cargill's victory didn't come without a bit of assistance. A masked figure assaulted Rosa while she was down in the corner of the ring. That figure ultimately proved to be one of the factors in her victory.After the match, the masked figure helped Cargill beat down Thunder Rosa in front of a puzzled crowd at Daily's Place in Jacksonville. However, the fans soon got an answer to who the masked figure was.Mercedes Martinez@RealMMartinezThe hustle/grind never stops! Blessed, humbled & READY to be UNLEASHED!

The wrestling veteran aligned herself with Jade Cargill before being announced as the newest full-time member of the AEW roster.This was Martinez's first appearance in AEW since 2019. She first appeared as the "Joker" in the women's "Casino Battle Royale" at All Out in 2019. She then appeared on Dark in November 2019 before leaving to pursue a career in WWE.Despite the interference from Martinez, both Jade Cargill and Thunder Rosa put on a valiant fight. Hopefully, we will see these two women cross paths in the future.
