#2 Disco Inferno explains possible reason why Adam Cole hasn't reached his full potential in AEW

Adam Cole has faced massive criticism over his booking since joining AEW last year. He recently suffered his first singles defeat at the hands of Orange Cassidy, which led to many assuming that the company may have given up on the former NXT Champion.

While speaking on the Keepin' It 100 podcast, Disco Inferno said Cole was not being "buried" on purpose. The veteran held the 32-year-old star responsible for his underwhelming booking in AEW programming due to his association with The Elite. Specifically, he criticized the way the stable has been doing "goofy comedy stuff" lately.

"He's [Adam Cole] not being buried on purpose," said Inferno. "Cole likes to do that. Cole was in these Being The Elite all the time doing all this comedy. He likes to do all the goofy comedy stuff," Disco Inferno said. "I don't think he needs it, but he's all over Being The Elite doing all this goofy stuff, you know, so he likes doing this, working with Orange Cassidy and the Best Friends."

The Panama City Playboy recently defeated Evil Uno in a one-sided affair match on Rampage and declared that he'd be going after the World Championship.

Previous reports have suggested that the company is planning to book a program between Cole and Page heading into Revolution this year.


#1 Renee Paquette wants Jon Moxley to team up with Bryan Danielson

Bryan Danielson recently confronted Jon Moxley and pitched the idea of joining forces in All Elite Wrestling.

This development has sparked discussion on social media, with fans and veterans alike talking about the pros and cons of the two men teaming up with each other.

Moxley's wife, Renee Paquette, has also given her a take on the matter. While speaking on Busted Open Radio, the former WWE personality agreed to Danielson's promo in which the AEW star said Mox was the best AEW World Champion.

"I agree, 100%," said Paquette. "I do feel like Jon was the best AEW Champion. He did it during the old no fans section of having AEW, he didn’t have a crowd around while he was champion, he kind of had to trudge through the mud on that one."

Paquette further said that she would love to see Mox and Bryan work together. However, she couldn't convince her husband regarding the decision because he tunes her out whenever she brings up wrestling.

"I assure you when I talk wrestling to my husband [Jon Moxley] he tunes me out, so don’t worry about it, guys," Paquette added. "I do what I can, but he’s not listening to me either. That man does whatever he wants.”

Based on Paquette's comments, it's clear that Mox prefers making his own decisions. From here on out, it will be interesting to see how the storyline between Moxley and Danielson unfolds.
