AEW News Roundup: "He's incapable"- legendary manager takes a massive dig at Jon Moxley, former WWE Superstar wants to work with Adam Cole (October 4th, 2021)

#4 Former WWE Superstar wants to get in the ring with Adam Cole in AEW

AEW's EVP Cody Rhodes recently expressed his desire to share the ring with Adam Cole down the road.

During an interview with Charly Arnolt of ESPN, Rhodes named Cole ahead of CM Punk and Bryan Danielson as someone he would like to share the squared circle with. The American Nightmare then heaped praise on the former NXT Champion, stating that he developed a massive fanbase during his time with The Bullet Club and The Elite.

Rhodes even added that younger fans have only seen Adam Cole's performance at the tip of the iceberg and that he is yet to showcase his true potential:

"Adam Cole. It’s an easy question for me to answer in terms of I feel Adam Cole is very well known by the hardcore wrestling audience and, of course, fans of the Elite and Bullet Club and that entire portion of this revolution." Cody Rhodes continued, "But I also think that casual fans or lapsed fans or just new fans have only seen just the tip of the iceberg of what he’s capable of.”

AEW's Cody Rhodes then called Bryan Danielson and CM Punk one of the best wrestlers in the world. He added that AEW star Adam Cole would have an opportunity to carve a new fanbase in Tony Khan's promotion:

“I know Bryan Danielson is one of the best in the world, I know CM Punk even after a 7-year absence is one of the best in the world. They’re helping pull this wagon already and they’ve only been here a few days. Adam Cole gets to show a whole new audience and gets to interact and create a whole new brand for himself just because he has such a large platform to do it with AEW. He’s the one I’m most excited about getting in the ring with when and if that challenge presents itself," Cody Rhodes said. (H/T - SEScoops)
