Adam Cole remembers meeting a young MJF early on in his career.
Adam Cole and MJF are currently locked in the middle of a storyline where they have been forced to team together in the Blind Eliminator tag team tournament, after wrestling to a 30 minute draw on AEW Dynamite a few weeks back.
While appearing on a recent episode of Superstar Crossover, Cole recalled meeting the AEW World Champion early on in his career.
“I actually met MJF when he was very, very early on in his career. From the moment I saw him, and I mean this, this is regardless of what I think about him personally, but from the moment I saw him, I knew he was super talented. He was one of those guys who got it very, very early on. He was someone who put just as much time and energy into his promo work as he did into his bell-to-bell in-ring competition work. So yeah, he was incredibly talented from a very young age. He was definitely one of those guys that when I saw I was like, ‘Oh, this is gonna be a guy I’m gonna be seeing a lot more of.'”
