Adam Cole was touted as one of the best talents in NXT after debuting back in 2017. He competed in some of the brand’s best matches and his importance to NXT cannot be undermined.

Adam Cole is also officially done with NXT for good after NXT TakeOver 36, where he lost to Kyle O’Reilly, finally ending their feud. Adam Cole’s WWE contract also expired recently, making him free agent.

Adam Cole also doesn’t have non-compete clause because he didn’t sign a new contract with WWE. Cole is free to go wherever he wants to.

According to Dave Meltzer on the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE told their marketing team not to get rid of plans for Adam Cole.
