WWE News: Former NXT Champion and perhaps one of the most decorated NXT Superstars of all time, Adam Cole’s WWE contract is close to terminate. As per the latest WWE news, Adam Cole signed a short-term extension to his contract that may come to an end until NXT Takeover 36, slated for Sunday, August 22.
As per Wrestlling Inc, Cole’s contract with the company was supposed to expire after NXT Great American Bash, but the former NXT Champion chose to briefly extend the window to give ample negotiation time to both parties or perhaps to wrap up his ongoing storylines. According to talkSPORT,
“Cole extended his deal in order to put over Kyle O’Reilly at TakeOver. It’s not common practice for there to be a non-compete with a contract’s expiry, but as part of the extension, Cole also managed to ‘kill the non-compete clause’ he would have had to fulfill.”
