Number 4- Adam Cole
Adam Cole, alongside Bobby Fish and Kyle O’Reilly are some of the latest WWE signings. They’ve made their mark in NXT, capturing the NXT Tag Team Championship and winning the War Games match at the event of the same name. We strongly believe that for Cole, this is only the beginning.
As we’ve seen with most recent signings, if they have prior training and are notable superstars, they don’t stay down long in NXT. It is entirely possible that by the end of 2018, Cole will be a main event player on ‘Raw’ or ‘Smackdown Live,’ with or without Fish and O’Reilly.
Regardless of this, Cole is going places. He has worked impressive matches with numerous NXT talent so far and has made himself a big player on the developmental brand, securing himself a likely spot in the upcoming ‘TakeOver’ show against a big name in Aleister Black.
Putting aside the possibility of going to the main roster and likely winning Championships on a main event level there, he does have a strong chance at taking the NXT Championship from Andrade ‘Cien’ Almas or Johnny Gargano after ‘TakeOver’ if he becomes a contender for the Championship.
Rest assured, the future of Cole in WWE is going to be bright. There are no doubts about his athletic ability or skills on the microphone. He is an established star and was for years before coming to WWE. 2018 will surely see the former ROH Champion shine.
