WWE NXT Superstar Adam Cole wants dream match with Shawn Michaels at Hell in a Cell
Adam Cole was revealed that he would like to face WWE legend Shawn Michaels if he got to fight him inside the cell.
Cole was on WWE After the Bell and went on to say that a match with the Heartbreak Kid would be right on the top of his list. He says: (h/t Wrestling Inc).
Michaels is known for his WrestleMania moments, but Cole too wants something similar in the daunting Hell in a Cell:
“I really really want to wrestle in a Hell in a Cell someday. Cause I’m an absolute maniac. I just think about all the iconic moments and matches. HBK and The Undertaker, Mankind and The Undertaker, there’s so many different examples of classic Hell in a Cell matches. When I think about that iconic moment when the music is playing and the cell is lowering, I just remember being so excited and it still makes me feel that way.
“I feel like if I beat Kyle O’Reilly in Hell in a Cell, it’s over. Then I can move on, go back to going after the NXT Championship, then I can move on. Either Shawn Michaels or Kyle O’Reilly.”
Cole has received numerous comparison to Michaels since his big move to WWE. He is one of the most talented stars on the roster but has remained on NXT throughout his WWE career.
Cole is set to face Kyle O’ Reilly at the WWE NXT Great American Bash this month, with this rivalry simmering for a few months since the disbanding of The Undisputed Era.
When will Adam Cole be promoted to the main roster?
Cole, is the inaugural NXT North American Champion and the second NXT Triple Crown Champion in history by beating Johnny Gargano to win the NXT Title at TakeOver: XXV.
He is the co-winner of the 2018 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic with O’Reilly. Cole has shown his class when it matters in WWE, and a promotion to either WWE RAW or SmackDown is very likely in the year or so. A dream matchup with Drew McIntyre will be high on the writers’ minds.
