Jay Lethal Is Praised By Adam Cole And Referred To As The Most Underappreciated Performer Currently Active
Jay Lethal has received high accolades from Adam Cole.
Many believe Lethal, who is presently signed to All Elite Wrestling, to be one of the best performers in recent memory, particularly among his peers.
Adam Cole has fought Lethal several times over the years, mostly in Ring Of Honor.
In a recent interview with Superstar Crossover, Cole claimed that Lethal is the most underappreciated wrestler working right now since so few people realize how complete a package he is.
“Jay Lethal. Without question. When I say underrated, I know Jay works for AEW, so a lot of people could say he’s not necessarily underrated, he’s on television every week, but sometimes I don’t think people realize how much of a complete package that Jay Lethal is. He is, bell-to-bell, easily [in the] top three I’ve ever been in the ring with as far as a guy who can do anything and everything. He’s an amazing babyface. He’s an amazing heel. He’s amazing on the microphone. You could throw him in a tag team match. You could throw him in a 45-minute singles match. He could open the show. He could be in the middle of the card. He could main event. All of it fits. Jay is one of those guys you can absolutely always 24/7 depend on. He is one of the best pro wrestlers I’ve ever had the pleasure of sharing the ring with and I feel like not enough people talk about how he’s one of the best of our generation. I think Jay Lethal is unbelievable.”
