"Yeah, let's go" - Adam Cole opens up on major selling point for him to join AEW
Since news broke that Adam Cole's NXT contract was expiring, his arrival in AEW felt like a matter of time. Being a part of The Elite and reuniting with his friends in AEW was one of the biggest selling points for the Panama City Playboy.
When Adam Cole debuted at All Out, fans were unsure of the former NXT Champion's intentions. He quickly put all doubts to rest by superkicking Jungle Boy and embracing his friends, The Elite.

Rejoining the Elite was what convinced Adam Cole immediately, as he told Bleacher Report.
"So, the idea for me to debut at All Out and stuff like that was decided on very quickly and super last-minute," Cole said. "But initially, when I heard the idea of rejoining The Elite, immediately my mind was like, 'Yeah, let's go.' There wasn't really any talk or any discussion of bringing me in any differently. And I think because that first idea was pitched and I was so on board. And, obviously, the Bucks and Kenny [Omega] were super on board. To me, it just felt like a no-brainer. So, yeah, I was all about that idea," Adam Cole said.
In the following weeks, Adam Cole and the Young Bucks re-formed the Superkliq, a trio from their time in other promotions, before they headed their separate ways.
Adam Cole is undefeated in AEW so far.
