Mara Sadè was largely a tag wrestler alongside Lash Legend in NXT as Jakara Jackson, and she recently spoke moving into singles competition in TNA. Jackson was a guest on Busted Open Radio and talked about what how she’s been able to grow into competing in her own in the ring.

“It’s been very positive but also very — it’s a matter of just figuring it out more so than before because being in a tag team, I put all my eggs in a basket with that,” Sade said (h/t to Fightful). “So I wanted to make that work and so, me and Lash (Legend) really put in the work to make it good and make people love us.”

She continued, “And so I feel like now that I’m on my own, I definitely feel like getting the reps and getting that experience on the independents was something that I needed to do and also training-wise. I can train, I can do whatever now. It’s actually crazy and so I’m just finding and doing things that fit me and I feel like it’s always gonna be a growing process. But it’s been a beautiful one to be honest and I’m still finding things out about myself and still growing as we speak.”

Sade made her TNA debut in July and signed with the company.
