Adam Cole Says There Wasn’t a ‘Huge Discussion’ About Him Going To Main Roster In WWE

In an interview with the Kurt Angle Show (via Wrestling Inc), Adam Cole spoke about his relationship with Triple H and Shawn Michaels in NXT and discussion about a main roster move. Cole is now a member of the AEW roster. Here are highlights:

On if he still talks to Triple H and Shawn Michaels: “I still, to this day, keep in conversation, in touch with both of them. All of it is just, ‘Hey, how are you? Thinking of you, wishing you the best.’ That type of thing.”

On discussion of a move to the main roster: “There wasn’t a huge discussion from either of them about going to Raw or SmackDown. Not as in it was an uncomfortable thing to talk about, but I guess the way I’ll put it is there really was a core group of guys in NXT that was so laser-focused on that one thing, making NXT special. I think they knew and they, themselves weren’t even thinking about it as well. I think, also, especially with NXT trying to be this new show on Wednesdays, they probably would’ve been nervous or scared of the idea of like, ‘Oh my god, they just took four of our top NXT stars, now what’re we going to do?’”
