Adam Cole has been one of the top stars in NXT for years now, but it was recently reported that his contract with WWE was set to expire soon. Following his loss to Kyle O’Reilly at NXT TakeOver 36 PWInsider is reporting that his appearance at TakeOver was Adam Cole’s last with the NXT brand.
Fightful Select is also reporting that as of Sunday morning Adam Cole had not signed a new contract past the extension he signed in July which kept him with the company through SummerSlam weekend.
Cole’s contract is set to expire soon, and there’s no word on whether or not he has signed a new deal. It was reported weeks ago that pitches were made for him to join Raw or SmackDown if he signed a new deal.
It’s been speculated that Adam Cole could be joining Britt Baker in All Elite Wrestling, and Baker reacted to his TakeOver match on Sunday when she posted the following:
