Booker T says Adam Cole got “lost in the shuffle” in AEW after being “super hot” during WWE run

During his podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Booker T commented on NXT champion Ethan Page’s rise since leaving AEW…

“Ethan Page in AEW, he really wasn’t that relevant, and then coming to ‘NXT,’ man, the guy, he’s a star. I mean everybody knows Ethan Page right now, he’s a guy that’s doing a hell of a job.

Then you’ve got guys who, let’s just say, for instance, Adam Cole. Adam Cole in WWE, in ‘NXT,’ he was super, super hot. I mean I had touted this guy as being the next Shawn Michaels. That’s what I said, I said that, and then he goes to AEW, gets lost in the shuffle, really don’t hear a whole lot from him.” (quote courtesy of WrestlingInc.com)
