Adam Cole has one goal in mind, and he isn’t shy about sharing it—he wants the AEW World Championship. The charismatic wrestler, who joined All Elite Wrestling in 2021, has battled through injuries and setbacks, but his hunger for gold remains undeterred.
In an interview on The Danny Ocean Show, Cole didn’t mince words about his ambitions in AEW:
“Absolutely winning the AEW World Championship, without question. If my career in AEW doesn’t involve me becoming the AEW World Champion at some point, I will feel disappointed,” Cole confessed.
Cole’s passion for being “the guy” has been a driving force throughout his career. Whether it was in Ring of Honor, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, or NXT, his mission has always been the same—to carry the company’s flag and be the face of the brand.
“The goal obviously is to be the guy and to have the company put everything behind you, and you carry the flag. It was my mission when I first joined AEW, and it will continue to be my mission,” he emphasized.
Despite falling short against MJF at AEW All In 2023, Cole isn’t backing down. He remains laser-focused on his pursuit of the AEW World Title.
“Right now, my main focus is MJF, of course, but the AEW World Title is always in the back of my head, and that is my number one goal,” he added.
Adam Cole’s determination and unwavering focus on becoming AEW World Champion make him one to watch in the coming months.
