It seems like the opposite of what happened to Chris Hero in NXT. Instead of ballooning up and getting chunky, Adam has cut weight and gotten doughy.

I'm less of a stickler about the "tan" thing, because he's still a white guy to me at the end of the day unless you get to the point of leathering or spraying on way too much bronzer and it looks fucking stupid. But he looks like he said "fuck the gym" since he doesn't have to hit it super hard anymore without the WWE over his shoulder. And maybe he didn't. For all we know, he might be working out as much as he ever has... and that would make it a larger problem, since he shouldn't be losing mass and tone like that if he's grinding like that.

Hell, even when WALTER/GUNTHER first dropped weight, it didn't look quite right. He lost it relatively quickly, and even with it cut and being "in shape", it initially looked all gristly. Soon after, it started getting more proportional and less like his body was eating itself.

I know the criticisims seem hyperbolic, but there's something about Adam Cole's physique diminishment that doesn't seem natural. Almost like he's hiding an ailment he doesn't want to make public. And if that isn't the case, it's almost worse than if it were, because some sort of disease or ailment would at least be an excuse. If he isn't sick, then he just got lazy in a business where a big part of your image is how you look.
