In the middle of Cole’s negotiation with WWE NXT for a new contract, AEW put forward their contract on Cole’s plate. Considering the way AEW is pushing forward in the industry, their contracts are becoming increasingly appealing to the pro-wrestlers.
Moreover, Cole will not have to wait for thirty days after his extended contract expires to work with AEW. As soon as the contract expires, he becomes a free agent. Hence, he can start working with AEW from the very next day.
