Michael Cole surprisingly namedrops top AEW star at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event

A major AEW star was namedropped tonight at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event. Michael Cole referenced a major angle that unfolded a few years ago.

Tonight, Damian Priest took on Drew McIntyre in a steel cage match. The contest was brutal, as both men took advantage of the cage to dish out as much punishment as they could to one another.

At a crucial juncture in the match, Priest took out McIntyre, and instead of delivering a finisher, he wanted to make sure he was completely down for the count. The Archer of Infamy set him up and hit him with a Con-Chair-To. After hitting the maneuver, all he needed to do was calmly walk out of the cage with no interference for the win.

Michael Cole on commentary dropped some interesting lore about the move. He discussed how Damian Priest used the maneuver in the past when he took out Edge when he was still with WWE a few years ago.

For those unaware, The Rated-R Superstar is the pioneer of the said move alongside Christian Cage. He even uses it in AEW.

The finish to this match may signal the end of the heated feud between Drew McIntyre and The Archer of Infamy in WWE.
