Adam Cole Undergoes Ankle Surgery
Ankle surgery for Adam Cole
Oct 16, 2023
Adam Cole is now on the mend.
According to Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Radio, Adam Cole had a second surgery on his ankle in recent days. When exactly Cole will return is unknown but Dave Meltzer noted the former ROH World Champion will be out of action "for a while."
Cole has been on the shelf since he sustained a freak ankle injury at Dynamite Grand Slam while jumping to the floor. Cole previously revealed he would require two surgeries that would include eight screws and a plate in his ankle. He also stated it was the most painful injury he had ever suffered.
Cole has remained on AEW TV since his injury, including in a vignette with Roderick Strong where they raced around a house as Cole recovers from his broken ankle and Roderick remains "neck strong." Cole is still one-half of the ROH World Tag Team Champions with MJF. There is no word on if Tony Khan plans to strip them of the titles.
