Adam Cole Reveals Who He Wants To Face In AEW
Jungle Boy and more
Sep 8, 2021
Adam Cole has revealed who he wants to face in All Elite Wrestling.
The former three-time ROH World Champion made his AEW debut at All Out on Sunday and initially teased that he would attack The Elite before he Superkicked Jungle Boy and reunited with his former Bullet Club brothers.
Speaking to the media after the September 5 pay-per-view, Cole revealed Jungle Boy was the wrestler he is most looking forward to facing, before he named the likes of Darby Allin and CM Punk as other potential opponents.
"So there's a bunch of different options, but there are definitely some people I'm looking forward to stepping into the ring with. Number one is the gentleman that I kicked tonight and that's Jungle Boy. He is an incredibly talented young man with a huge future and a guy I would love to kick in the face again," Cole said.
"But, oh my gosh, Darby Allin, MJF, CM Punk, Christian Cage. So many different options, so many different choices. Really, I can't think of anyone on this roster who I wouldn't look forward to facing, except for The Elite."
Before his AEW debut, Cole had spent the last four years with WWE in NXT. He departed the company following TakeOver 36, though, and the longest-reigning NXT Champion in history admitted it was a "fairly easy" decision to join AEW.
