A former WWE Superstar has made a big accusation against the promotion, stating that it tried to bury him with Michael Cole's shots at him. The star in question is Top Dolla.
AJ Francis, aka Top Dolla, was released last year. He has been doing well for himself since then and is currently signed to TNA.
Top Dolla recently spoke with WhatCulture and opened up about Michael Cole taking massive shots at him on WWE TV. Cole didn't hold back while taking jibes at Top Dolla on air and many fans were surprised with the same. Dolla told WhatCulture that WWE's goal with Cole's jibes was to bury him.
"Yeah, I mean... Because the goal was never for me and the goal from them was never for me and Cole to get over with the segment, it was for them to try to bury me, right? But the problem is, you can throw as much dirt on me as you want. I'm like The Undertaker. I'm coming back to f**k your life, right? That's why I'm here right now." [4:33-4:48]
Michael Cole's 'feud' with top female star Bayley
Cole has engaged in an on-again, off-again 'feud' with WWE Superstar Bayley for years on end now. The rivalry is basically The Role Model taking occasional friendly jibes at the veteran announcer on social media. In an interview with Under The Ring, Bayley opened up about her hilarious antics targeting Cole.
“It was just a weird time. A lot of stuff was on the fly and we kind of just had to fill time. So that a lot of that just came from like, 'Okay, well, it’s awkwardly quiet in here. There’s only one person in this arena and it’s Michael Cole, so he’s getting it.' It’s just random things like that that make you really think on your feet which is fun.” [H/T - ITR Wrestling]
Cole is possibly having the time of his life as an announcer on WWE TV at the moment. He has been given a lot of freedom lately under the Triple H regime and is seemingly enjoying the same.
