There was a rumor that Vince wanted to take Adam Cole and make him a manager for Keith Lee...and that Cole would play the role Lio Rush played with Lashley.
That's madness.
I could see like a Shawn Michaels - Diesel type of scenario being interesting for Cole and Lee, but to make him purely a manager is ridiculous.
Vince really has lost his marbles at this point. Honestly it's really only Reigns+Heyman that are saving the company at this point, and I highly doubt heel Reigns was Vince's idea.

And I would say, ‘I don’t know if I want to gamble to such an extent that I’m willing to have everything I’ve done watered down or made a joke of.’ If somebody is a more intriguing character in NXT than they are in WWE, and it seems almost by design, I think that’s a big, big problem.”

Foley made this comment on Sean Waltman's podcast too, and I really think there might be something to this. Really feels like Vince has some pettiness towards NXT for some reason and is almost intentionally sabotaging those guys on the main roster over the last year.
