I loved Adam Cole in NXT, he was brilliantly booked as the undersized heel who could work and talk on the mic, and he was the head of a great faction. With AEW he just hasn't been that well booked and he's kind of milquetoast.
It also looks like a stiff breeze could bring him down. His starpower has seemingly dropped since leaving NXT. He has yet to prove McMahon wrong about being able to main event a show. The whole storyline is weird with no payoff... if Cole was planning on turning on MJF the entire time why not do it for the World Title a few months ago? Why wait till now when the title went to Joe instead? The whole story makes zero sense. I doubt Khan had a real plan from the start. Or if he did, Cole's injury really sabotaged everything.

As always Tony Kahn is his own worst enemy. He needs to be hands off of AEW entirely. Khan often takes shots at Vince, but both of them have become their own worst enemy. There is so much talent on that roster, but as long as Tony is in charge of booking AEW won't go very far.

On that note, just get Jericho off television. It's sad that 20 years ago my two favourites were Jericho and Benoit, now I have to feel shame for appreciating either of them. I can forgive Jericho for some of his past transgressions, but if the rumours are true he should be fired and never let back on television.
