Adam Cole recently appeared as a guest on the #Dork podcast for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling and AEW.
During the discussion, Cole spoke about potential matches against Malakai Black and Kenny Omega, and called CM Punk his dream match opponent.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview where he touches on these topics and more with his thoughts.
On a possible match with Malaki Black: “I love the idea of that. We’ve really only had one serious high-profile match within NXT and it was an Extreme Rules match that a lot of people really enjoyed, so to get the chance to go toe to toe with him again in AEW would be pretty cool.”
On CM Punk being his dream match: “That’s my dream match. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it a thousand times, if I had a personal, I am not saying this is the definitive Mount Rushmore, but if I had a personal Mount Rushmore as far as wrestlers who have influenced me, CM Punk is on that list. He made me focus on promos, he introduced me to independent wrestling. I never in a million years thought I’d get the chance to maybe step into the ring with him, now the fact that’s a possibility, I’m going to be real sad if I don’t ever wrestle CM Punk.”
On potentially facing Kenny Omega: “I know a lot of people have been wondering if that’s going to happen. Right now, I don’t see it as a possibility, but you never know. It’s pro wrestling, never say never.”
