Adam Cole made an appearance on the “Oral Sessions with Renee Paquette” podcast and discussed a wide range of topics.
During it, he spoke about WWE NXT having interest in the past in his girlfriend and AEW Women’s Champion, Britt Baker. He said,
“Oh definitely, because Britt [Baker] was in such an interesting spot where it kind of — because of AEW and again, because she’s so talented but stuff blew up for her kind of overnight or that’s how it felt. Again, she had been doing some great independents, she had been doing well and formed relationships with other girls or other promoters and all of a sudden, here she is with this brand new company that is just on fire and she’s knocking it out of the park but yeah, I know for sure that NXT was interested in saying, ‘Hey, you know, if Britt’s available, please let us know’ and I know AEW was interested in me as well so it was an interesting kind of back and forth of, ‘Oh, it’d be cool if you came here or it’d be cool if I came there.’ But again, we were both under contract. Not much we can do but we did fantasize about those things, yeah.”
