One of the most prolific professional wrestlers in the world today, Adam Cole shocked the world by making his surprise AEW debut at the ALL OUT pay-per-view event in September 2021. Entering the ring with fans chanting his iconic “Adam Cole Bay Bay!” catchphrase, he has taken measure of the best AEW has to offer, capturing his first AEW championship in April 2025 when defeating Daniel Garcia for the TNT Championship at AEW Dynasty.


The victory capped a comeback from injuries that derailed Adam’s in-ring career for almost two years, including a 423-day absence from a fractured ankle that required multiple surgeries, extra screws & a cadaver bone to repair.
Before that major setback, Cole & Maxwell Jacob Friedman headlined the largest wrestling show of all time – AEW All In: London – in 2023, in front of a paid attendance of 81,035 at Wembley Stadium.


Outside the ring, Adam is an avid gamer, with his TheCHUGS Twitch channel garnering more than 130,000 subscribers through his weekly streams, which has reached more than 1,000 daily streams. Adam & Dark Order’s Evil Uno also have collaborated on the AEWGames Twitch channel.


Adam maintains an incredible relationship with his fans, often sharing personal words of motivation to those who reach out. He has been featured on Jon Taffer’s Bar Rescue and G4TV’s Attack of the Show! The Pennsylvania native’s “All About Tha (Boom!)” theme song also reached #1 on iTunes’ rock and metal charts after his debut.
