“He’s Unbelievably Talented”- Shawn Michaels Responds To Comparisons To NXT Champion
NXT’s Adam Cole has been compared to WWE legend Shawn Michaels a lot lately. Michaels has finally responded to these comparisons in a recent interview. It appears as if Shawn is more excited about the comparison than Adam Cole.
The NXT Champion has been a wonder and is on a hot streak. Notching win after win, his title reign is undisputed now. He successfully defended it at Takeover and is one of the hottest topics of discussion in WWE.
