If you thought Adam Cole was looking a little flashier on AEW TV, there’s a good reason for that.
Adam Cole spoke with Bleacher Report‘s Chris Mueller and talked about how his girlfriend, Britt Baker, influenced his change in appearance on television. Cole explained that he was always a guy that wore more “traditional” gear, but seeing Baker’s ring jackets and gear made him step up his own game as well.
“Britt always has this top-of-the-line, excellent gear consistently, whether it’s this awesome, flashy new ring jacket, or new gear, and she always looks like a million bucks,” Cole said. “And for me, I’ve always been someone that kind of liked the stuff that I wore, but it was more traditional. I am just going to wear some trunks, maybe wear a T-shirt.
“After watching her and seeing how much of a superstar that she looked like, I’m like ‘OK, I think I’m going to get a ring jacket and I’m gonna start changing up my appearance a little bit more.’ I think that’s a huge part of her appeal and her presentation. So watching her kind of develop that habit of getting new stuff all the time is something I’m going to start to implement,” he noted, “and that would not have been in my brain if it wasn’t for Britt.”
Cole also shared his thoughts on seeing how Baker has evolved as a performer in such a short amount of time. He said it’s been a fun process to watch, and she’s just getting started.
“One of the coolest parts about AEW is to be able to see her go out and have a killer match, or have a killer promo, and to be able to be there in the back when she comes through the curtain and talk about how great it went. So it’s been really awesome to see her development. And the coolest thing is again,” Cole pointed out, “she’s not even close to her full potential yet. So it’s really exciting.”
