Adam Cole is not medically clear, but he will be at the Capitol Wrestling Center next Tuesday.
NXT announced Cole suffered "spinal and neck compression" as a result from the attack by Kyle O'Reilly last Tuesday. O'Reilly attacked Cole after Cole's victory over Bronson Reed in the main event, hitting him with a chair and laying him out with a brainbuster onto the steps.
Cole is not medically cleared at the moment, but it was announced that he will be on the August 10 episode of NXT for a face-to-face with O'Reilly. The meeting between the two Undisputed ERA mates will be mediated by NXT GM William Regal.
