Poor Cole, ever since losing his best pal Mr. Belt, he's been on a downward spiral.

WWE should book an appointment with Dr. Shelby to sort out his anger issues.

LOL yeah, absolute work. Like Adam Cole doesn't know he is small and would get that worked up over it, please.

Vader in Kuwait it was not.

Cole is billed at 6'0 210 on his Wikipedia page and I don't bit that for a second.

What time does AEW come on guys?

Knowing Pat McAfee personally.. ( i dont ). It's a total work.

I wish Adam Cole would have turned down McAfee's proposal for this dumb angle... seems embarrassing

Mr. Pierre

I actually thought both guys did a good job. At least it’s something different and not some robot cookie cutter segment.

Actually watched it.... don't know how there is any doubt that it is a work......

Could have done without the profanity......

I remember when Pro Wrestling Sheet got worked by a Mexican fed and thought a guy literally threw a cinder block against another guy’s skull.


This is even worse.

For like the first 6 months of Adam Cole in NXT, every time I saw him I always though "Huh, thought this guy was taller"

I always thought "Does this guy's hair EVER dry?" He looks like either a drowned rat or a young girl who just got out of the shower and didn't put their hair up yet.

Why is it a question of a work or not? It’s wrestling. Of course it’s a work. Who cares? They are thinking SOMEWHERE outside the box at least. I’ll take it.

Also to the regular fan? The casual? Some will buy in. For fuck sales, a few die hards on this message board are debating it. We are talking. It’s something.

I dont care either way. The OP asks if i tjinthink k its a work or not. Clearly a work.


Ive enjoyed thousands of works

Oh I had a hell of a time showing this to my "wrestling is fake" buddies and they were sold on it within 2 minutes.

I remember when people thought The Miz on Talking Smack was a shoot.

It was more believable than this shit.


Adam Cole blows. Him saying his own name with BABAYYYYY is what's over.

I’m not a huge Adam Cole fan but I liked this. Didn’t make me cringe. Both guys sold it well. We need more of this.

Miz was better

If it's not a work its really cringy. Pat Mcaffe is bigger and more intimidating looking than this champ anyways, so maybe Cole has small man syndrome.

I kind of doubt its a work cuz it makes Cole look terrible.

Always better to do something rather than nothing. Way too much nothing nowadays.

Mr. Nerfect
07-25-2020, 08:59 PM
Hahaha, I put off watching this, because I honestly didn't care, but I finally watched this thinking it would blur the lines. Holy shit, why are the people who say "kayfabe is dead" the easiest fucking people to work?

That didn't seem real at all. And I don't mind -- for WWE level hoke, the attempt is appreciated -- but yeah, Cole is going to go on about how he is the longest reigning NXT Champion in history in a shoot. :lol:

Cole vs. McAfee for Takeover XXX it seems. Or some sort of tag match. Eh, there are worse things they could do.

Haven't watched rassling, including NXT, in over a year..... but I remember thinking the Adam Cole (and all the Unidsputed Era guys) had very little to offer as singles rasslers and only had any sort of value together as a group

Mr. Nerfect
07-26-2020, 02:08 AM
Cole is someone I didn’t get at first, but the more I watch the more I get him. I’m ready for The Undisputed Era to end, honestly.

My first thought was that they look like Target employees and Cole was the manager. I also think that their strength is as a group for sure.

I’m good with UE as a group (still not a fan of the name). I’d be pretty happy if they rocked up on SmackDown.

Mr. Nerfect
07-26-2020, 07:02 PM
The name is awful, haha. Have they ever even explained what it means?

This is great. Other than Adam Cole not being all that great and this situation being better used on a star or potential star, I don’t see what problem anyone could have with it.

Mr. Nerfect

AEW didn't do it.
