In a recent appearance on the “Superstar Crossover” podcast, AEW wrestler Adam Cole called fellow colleague Jay Lethal the most underrated talent in the wrestling industry today.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Jay Lethal being the most underrated talent in wrestling: “Jay Lethal. Without question. When I say underrated, I know Jay works for AEW, so a lot of people could say he’s not necessarily underrated, he’s on television every week, but sometimes I don’t think people realize how much of a complete package that Jay Lethal is. He is, bell-to-bell, easily [in the] top three I’ve ever been in the ring with as far as a guy who can do anything and everything.”
On why Lethal is such a good worker: “He’s an amazing babyface. He’s an amazing heel. He’s amazing on the microphone. You could throw him in a tag team match. You could throw him in a 45-minute singles match. He could open the show. He could be in the middle of the card. He could main event. All of it fits. Jay is one of those guys you can absolutely always 24/7 depend on. He is one of the best pro wrestlers I’ve ever had the pleasure of sharing the ring with and I feel like not enough people talk about how he’s one of the best of our generation. I think Jay Lethal is unbelievable.”
