Adam Cole has opened up about his experience working with WWE legend Christian Cage during his time in AEW.

Cole and the Young Bucks famously feuded with Cage, Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus with their saga culminating at Full Gear last year. Christian's team scored the win on the night to end their rivalry with their heads high.

The pair squared off in singles action for the first time last month on AEW Dynamite, where Adam Cole sealed a monumental win against the former world champion. After their time working together, Cole was nothing but complimentary toward Christian. He spoke about his experience with the veteran on Busted Open Radio:

"Everything they say about Christian being a wrestling genius is true, said Cole. "He's just so smart and a joy to work with as, as a lot of these guys are. So yeah, I think it's vital. I can't imagine where AEW would be without guys like them."

Christian signed with All Elite Wrestling in 2021 after he made a breathtaking return at WWE Royal Rumble earlier in the year. Edge's former tag partner declared that he would "outwork everyone" and quickly climbed up the card. He defeated Kenny Omega for the IMPACT World Championship, and he went on tp become a mentor to Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus.


Adam Cole will face Dax Harwood on AEW Dynamite

Following his failed attempts at taking the world title from Hangman Page, Cole declared that he would be focusing on the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament. On Wednesday, he'll face FTR's Dax Harwood in a quarterfinal bout.

Harwood had to endure a battle with his own tag partner, Cash Wheeler, in order to qualify for the tournament. Cole, on the other hand, fought a challenger who stepped through the Forbidden Door, Tomohiro Ishii.

Both men are extremely busy, as they have established other targets outside of the tournament as well. FTR holds both the ROH and AAA tag titles, and they have their sights set on the gold in AEW as well

Meanwhile, Cole made sure to use Tony Khan's announcement New Japan co-promoted event, Forbidden Door, to state his intentions for the Undisputed Elite to dominate wrestling. It remains unclear what the future holds for the group, beyond the Owen Hart Foundation Tournament.
