After Dark Elevation - AEW Dark Elevation recap for December 13, 2021

Thunder Rosa beats Gabby Ortiz. After the match, Tony Schiavone interviews Thunder Rosa, who says that she is excited and ready to become the first TBS Women's Champion. Suddenly, "Smart" Mark Sterling and Jade Cargill arrive and says they and Thunder Rosa got off on the wrong foot before stating they just want to chat, but Thunder Rosa thinks this is another set-up for Jade Cargill to attack her again. Jade says she can beat Thunder Rosa all by herself, to which Sterling agrees with before saying that security is ready to step in, especially with Jade refusing to wrestling in Long Island, New York. Thunder Rosa says that she finds it funny that Jade says she can beat her all by herself and yet has security on stand-by, then calls Sterling a "simp." Jade says the security is for Thunder Rosa, and Sterling says he is no simp and just likes his client. Sterling then says that Thunder Rosa is jealous of Jade Cargill's success, but Thunder Rosa says she is here to empower other women and that she has noticed that Jade has no respect due to having everything given to her. She says she has had to earn everything she has gotten, and when they meet in the ring, she will teach her respect and humility. She then calls Jade Cargill a bitch, and Sterling has to hold Jade back.
