Adam Cole’s final match in NXT took place at NXT TakeOver: 36 as he lost a 2 out of 3 falls match to Kyle O’Reilly. Ringside News exclusively reported that he did not sign a new deal or an extension with the company and now he is a free agent. The next chapter for Cole’s career could be very interesting.
According to a report fromFightful, Cole is not planned to be a part of WWE’s main roster at this point. They asked around about it, and despite his meeting with Vince McMahon that isn’t happening.
He had not signed a new contract as of this past weekend. We spoke with sources backstage at WWE Raw tonight, and confirmed he is not planned for tonight’s show in any capacity, either.
Vince McMahon told main roster writers to get ideas ready for Adam Cole, but those plans obviously aren’t being used right now. We’ll have to see what’s next for Cole, but he is not planned to be on RAW tonight.
As Ringside News exclusively reported, it wasn’t a great idea to get your hopes up about WWE’s plans for Cole. He did have a meeting with Vince McMahon, but obviously no deal was struck.
