Adam Cole has gone through quite a bit over the past year in order to return to the squared circle.
All Elite Wrestling’s Adam Cole recently sat down with Rick Ucchino of Sports Illustrated. During the interview, Cole detailed just how much his ankle was damaged at last year’s AEW Dynamite Grand Slam event.
“Ankles and shoulders are the two things with athletes where it can make no sense whatsoever,” Adam Cole said. “Every now and then, there are freak accidents or freak incidents that happen. The first piece of news that I heard was, your ankle is way worse than we anticipated. You have to get another surgery in seven days.
“So, not only did I have to get double the amount of screws in my ankle, but also, I had to get someone else’s bone put into my ankle because the bone piece within my ankle just completely disintegrated. Incredibly thankful to [the donor] and the family,” Cole said. “It’s certainly a better option. I definitely notice a difference in my left ankle as opposed to my right one, but I think that comes with the territory.”
