Adam Cole and Christian Cage have been linked together since the former WWE NXT Champion made his AEW debut last year at the All Out pay-per-view event where Cole showed up following Kenny Omega retaining the AEW World Heavyweight Title over Cage.
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Tony Khan said Cole vs. Page was considered for Full Gear last November. Instead, Cole teamed with The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson) against Christian and the Jurassic Express (Luchasaurus & Jungle Boy) at the event.
Now, this singles match will take place on tonight’s episode of AEW Dynamite.
“I cannot wait to see Adam Cole and Christian Cage lock up, in a match that has been coming for a very long time. Really a match that has been coming for well over six months since Adam Cole first arrived in AEW at All Out at the conclusion of the main event; Kenny Omega vs. Christian Cage. It’s a match I anted to see since the end of All Out. It’s a match I had at one point honestly considered for Full Gear last year and we ended up putting together the falls count anywhere match,” he said.
