Company/Brand: WWE NXT (Cole), AEW (Baker)

Adam Cole:

Cole is a talent respected around the world, wrestling in promotions such as New Japan Pro-Wrestling and Ring Of Honor. However, even just Cole’s accomplishments in NXT are impressive. While on WWE’s third brand, Cole has held the NXT Championship, NXT Tag Team Championship, and was the inaugural NXT North American Champion, making him the second NXT Triple Crown Champion. His NXT TakeOver: New York and NXT TakeOver: XXV bouts against Gargano were lauded as classics by fans, journalists, and professional wrestlers alike. In-ring acumen aside, Cole is also the leader of one of the most compelling modern stables, The Undisputed Era, and has one of the most over catchphrases (bay bay).

Britt Baker:

From AEW’s first PPV (Double or Nothing 2019), it was clear that Baker was the face of the women’s division. She was a skilled standout in the independent circuit and was the first female signed to AEW. Baker won her first PPV match, a fatal four-way match against Nyla Rose, Awesome Kong, and Kylie Rae. Though Baker’s ‘real-life dentist’ schtick became bland quicker than well-chewed gum, costing her some momentum, her heel “role model” persona shows promise.
