Adam Cole comments on his promo battles with MJF.
The two rivals have now exchanged words in a number of back and forth promos in recent weeks. Despite the fact that Cole and MJF are set to team up in the upcoming Blind Tag Team Eliminator Tournament, many fans expect the two to face off again in the near future, both on the microphone and in the ring.
While appearing on the latest episode of Matt Hardy's podcast, Cole noted that his first battle on the microphone with MJF felt like a sink or swim situation to him.
"There was a lot of excitement going into this. I don’t know if intimidation is the right word, but it very much felt like a sink or swim type of situation for me, which was really exciting. I’m going to go toe to toe with what many consider, what I consider, one of the best talkers and one of the best guys of the generation in MJF. Either people are going to think I can hang with him or they’re going to think that he ate me alive. I love that feeling of going out there and feeling, ‘Oh God, we’ll see how this goes.’ It was really exciting for me to be tested in that way and to show everybody that I’ll go toe to toe with anybody on the microphone. It was exciting, but I definitely had nerves and butterflies."
