Former WWE superstar Kelly Kelly recently praised Jade Cargill for the latter's success on the main roster. Kelly even discussed a potential matchup between herself and the former AEW star.

In an appearance on "Threads with Mackenzie Mitchell," Kelly was asked which current WWE superstar had the best look. The former Divas Champion chose Cargill, who made her in-ring debut at the Royal Rumble earlier this year and is currently one-half of the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions.

"I have just started watching Jade [Cargill], and I didn't really in AEW. But now that she's in WWE, I'm looking at her looks. I'm like, 'That's what I would be doing if I were still wrestling!' I just feel like her gear is just like very reminiscent of the Sparkles and like the glass. It's just cool!" Kelly said. [7:40 - 8:01]
