Top AEW Star Adam Cole recently had a conversation with Sports Illustrated on a number of topics such as how he's been a heel for so long that being a babyface after all this time has been an interesting transition, but it feels like such a natural fit and he is enjoying it a lot.
Adam Cole said:
“It’s been an interesting transition. I’ve played the vile, despicable heel for so long. But coming out of this injury, and being able to get back in the ring and wrestle again, it feels like such a natural fit to be the babyface. It’s a challenge I need, and I’m enjoying it a lot.”
Adam Cole also talked about how as soon as he joined AEW and stepped in the locker room he knew a day would come when he shared the ring with pro wrestling legend Chris Jericho.

“As soon as I joined AEW and stepped in the locker room, I knew the day would come when I shared the ring with Chris Jericho. He is someone I’ve studied and looked up to for a long time. The fan in me is incredibly excited.”
Adam Cole then talked about how his goal is still to become the AEW World Champion.
Adam Cole said:
“Throughout my career, I’ve always said my goal is to be the world champion. I want to be AEW world champion. But at this point, I have a whole new appreciation for this job. Every single week, I get on an airplane and go to a show. I’m so thankful for that. Wherever else that lands me is icing on the cake. My goal is to keep wrestling for a long time. This is me. I’m back where I belong.”
