Same on both counts for me. I thought he was retiring for sure. And yeah, I thought it was gonna be MJF too with Tony's intro. When "you know it's all about the boom" hit, my shit was lost.

Man I wish I could share the feeling but I just felt nothing the whole time. Maybe when he gets in a feud things will.change for me.
Not having him involved with the Elite or page would be a great start

If MJF gets past Danielson then he must defend the title against Adam Cole, BAYBAY!

I MANIFESTED THAT lol
Seriously though, how weird is that?! Must be fate. To hear him literally say he saw 'I miss Adam Cole' and other lines we've said here in this thread and elsewhere the last 6 months was surreal. Obviously we're not the only place to say that but it was still a trip. So glad to have you back Adam (I know you're reading this)

I'm so happy for Cole to be back, the first half of that promo was pure Chugs directly from the heart.

Genuinely didn't expect this. A nice surprise. Does seem like they're heading towards a face turn.

Having him do a face run already refreshed his character, I always thought he could be a good face the moment he buried Kross on the mic.

The general consensus around Cole is that he's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet and everybody is surprised he's such a great heel so letting him be a face for the first time since he was ROH tv champ over a decade ago would be a change of pace

Now the hate Cole had last year went to MJF, lol.

That was great. Excited to see a face run from him. Him and Hangman would make good challengers for MJF after Bryan.

It always amazes me that Adam Cole has been a heel for practically his entire career. He's such a natural babyface and I'm happy he's back as one.

He started out in ROH as a face with O'Reilly as Future Shock from what I remember, but I think Cole's character was still rather white meat at the time.

"I gave you NOTHING and you still supported me" is SUUUUCH a fantastic face turn motivation.

don't wanna jump the gun but
if danielson really can't win the title off MJF, why not have cole have it for a while as a face and then swerve gets it off him to cement himself as a massive heel?
you can't tell me people wouldn't cheer the f*** outta cole if he's like that. we all know he's an angel irl, why not let him do his thing like that now?

Cole as a babyface on his own is going to be so refreshing. I know he had a brief face run in NXT but for the most part it feels like he's spent years and years as the arrogant heel as part of a stable.

Yeah, it's sort of like Baron Corbin where my stance is, "it's worth doing whether it works or not, because they've been heel for way too long uninterrupted."
