Adam Cole has a new lease on life in All Elite Wrestling and as much as everyone likes to “tap, tap, tap” on the “Forbidden Door,” Cole doesn’t rule anything out down the road between some familiar faces.
Cole is set to make his in-ring debut on the 9/15 episode of AEW Dynamite in Newark, NJ against “The Elite Hunter” Frankie Kazarian. Leading up to the match, Cole had a conversation with Alex Biese of Asbury Park Press to talk about getting his pro wrestling start in the thick of the Northeastern area of the United States.
“It’s so incredibly awesome that I’m getting to make my in-ring debut with AEW in that area,” he said. “To me, those fans have been some of the most passionate, some of the most excited and some of the most dedicated that I have ever seen. The fact that I kind of cut my teeth in the Northeast area is something that those fans hold near and dear to them, and it’s something that I hold near and dear to me, too.”
Cole went on to share his excitement for all the possibilities that AEW opens up for himself and other talent, but also delved into the tension that he and his Elite crew have had with their former NJPW allies in The Bullet Club.
“I think there’s been tension with the Bullet Club over in Japan and the Elite here in AEW,” Cole said. “The history kind of speaks for itself, seeing the tension between the two teams and the two groups. So, ‘unfinished business’ I think would be an understatement. I think it’s very possible that at some point, me and the Elite are going to have to take care of some business.”
This week on the second of two LIVE editions of 2 Dynamite Dudes On A Rampage, degenerate brother Marcus joins slapdick brother Dominic in giving his thoughts on all the aftermath of AEW All Out including Bryan Danielson being put right in the AEW World Title picture.
