Adam Cole is one of WWE's top stars, though he's still on the company's third brand. He has often been the featured player on WWE NXT, but the former champion hasn't been called up to the main roster yet. But the leader of the Undisputed ERA has had his fair share of main roster appearances.

He even defeated Daniel Bryan on an episode of WWE SmackDown in 2019. Plus, Col competed in a singles match at WWE Survivor Series. But his most relevant appearance in regards to the matter at hand is his entry into the 2018 Royal Rumble Match.

Three years have passed since Cole's first Royal Rumble Match. 2021 might be the perfect time for his second outing in the match. He is currently busy with the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic, but he could still make a surprise appearance at the Royal Rumble. Cole seems like he's prepared to spend more time in NXT, so this appearance would probably be a one-off.

Many fans would be delighted if Cole competed in the Royal Rumble Match this year. Cole would be the perfect choice for WWE to showcase NXT's star power to the general audience. Plus, if Cole has a strong performance, he could increase the credibility of NXT stars as a whole.
