Rumor Roundup: Update On Adam Cole, Backstage Note On WWE Scouting, More

1) Update On Adam Cole

According to Mike Johnson of PWInsider, WWE issued an internal memo that said Adam Cole is no longer with the company.

Here is what Johnson wrote:

WWE issued an internal memo this morning via email, advising that Adam Cole was no longer with the company.

As we reported last week, the company considered him done unless he came to terms on a new deal, which did not happen.    The company considered him gone as if 8/24, as PWInsider.com reported at the time.

Cole is free to sign anywhere he wants, including WWE should the two sides opt to negotiate a new deal.  As we noted last week, one would think AEW and just about every other major promotion would be interested as well.  

My Take:

  • AEW seems like the obvious option to me. A lot of his close friends and his girlfriend, Britt Baker, are in the company.
