As things stand, no ex-WCPW star who didn't wrestle for WWE before (we're looking at you Drew McIntyre) is doing bigger things in McMahon land than Adam Cole. When the leader of the Undisputed Era appeared for WhatCulture the first time, he was part of the Bullet Club and the reigning ROH World Champion all at once.

After beating El Ligero and Jay Lethal to retain his title on Loaded in Edinburgh this past January, Cole appeared again to try and wrestle the ROH Title from Christopher Daniels. Daniels had won it at Ring Of Honor's 15th Anniversary Show on 10 March, so it was a huge honour for WCPW Bulletproof to host another Triple Threat. This time, the UK's own Zack Sabre Jr was involved too.

Before departing for NXT, where he has become a huge success and the top contender for McIntyre's NXT Title, Adam worked as part of the Bullet Club against The Prestige during the Pro Wrestling World Cup Qualifying shows in March. His star is one that's rising, so WhatCulture can be proud to count Cole as part of the roster's alumni.
