ROH Superstar Adam Cole recently did an interview with Crave Online, discussing how he got his start in Ring of Honor, Kevin Owens story and more. Here are some highlights:
On being at the top of Cody Rhodes’ a list of desired opponents: “It’s extremely flattering. Cody is a really cool guy. I’ve said this before but I think Cody leaving to make his own legacy and do his own thing is extremely commendable. To want to work that ROH schedule, that NJPW schedule, the PGW schedule is really cool and I have no doubt in mind that he is going to reinvent himself and put on some really kickass matches.”\\
On facing Jay Lethal at Death Before Dishonor: “To me, this has been one of the more anticipated matches that Ring of Honor has had in the past few years. A lot of people have been saying since I’ve been back that Adam Cole and Jay Lethal need to go one-on-one for the title and that’s finally going to happen in Las Vegas on Friday. The fans can expect two of the world’s best wrestlers going toe-to-toe on PPV and fighting over the most important prize in wrestling.”
On his favorite Kevin Owens story: “My personal favorite Kevin Owens story is the first time I won the ROH World Championship and I turned heel when I was no longer a babyface. One of the big changes was my music and ROH had some music picked out for me. Kevin came up to me and said ‘Hey, what music are you coming out to?’ I told him I heard it and it was fine. He said ‘No, I want to hear it.’ So he had it played over the loudspeaker and he hated it. He hated it. He said ‘You cannot come out to this. This isn’t you or anything you would come out to’ and I told him ‘Kevin, its already been picked.’ He stormed away and I looked out trying to see where he went and he was out on the laptop with the music, going through all of the songs and listening to the songs. The song I currently come out to now is the song that Kevin Owens picked and he made me walk out to it and three different songs in front of the entire locker room and the one he liked the best is my current theme “Something for you.” So Kevin Owens gets all of the credit for my theme\
