Pat McAfee Punts Adam Cole After NXT Tag Team Title Match

The feud between Adam Cole and Pat McAfee isn't over.

On tonight's episode of NXT, McAfee joined the commentary desk towards the end of the broadcast and said everything's good between him and Undisputed ERA after he and Cole had a verbal altercation on McAfee's show recently.

However, things eventually turned awry during the NXT Tag Team Championship match between Imperium and Undisputed ERA's Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish. Cole and McAfee started shouting, which led to Undisputed ERA being distracted and costing them the match. Afterwards, Cole and McAfee started getting physical and the two of them had a brief scuffle. Although both men were separated, McAfee returned and showed off his NFL All-Pro punting skills and punted Cole unconscious. 

On July 23, Cole was a guest on "The Pat McAfee Show" when things got heated between the two men. The former NXT Champion and former NFL punter took verbal jabs at each other, trying to discredit the respective career of the other man. Cole finally snapped when called short, getting out of his chair to confront McAfee, drop a couple of F-bombs, and shove McAfee's co-host.

The beef between Cole and McAfee dates back to 2018 when McAfee interfered during Cole's match against Aleister Black at a NXT live event. Since then, the two men have traded shots on social media and on WWE digital platforms.
