At All In: Texas, three months ago, The Panama City Playboy addressed his condition in front of the crowd. He was forced to relinquish his TNT Championship because he was no longer cleared for action, and this was expected to be the case moving forward. It was reported that he was dealing with concussion issues, which are a legitimate injury. He also hinted at a possible retirement.

During a recent Q&A session by Fightful Select, Sean Ross Sapp addressed questions about Adam Cole. He revealed that, upon asking, nothing had changed regarding his recovery timeline. He also noted that Cole has not been seen in any capacity within AEW and has not picked up any backstage roles during this period.

Adam Cole picks up a new role outside of wrestling

The former NXT Champion is known for being an incredible in-ring competitor, but many also know that one of his biggest hobbies is video games.

Earlier this month, he revealed that he had taken up voice acting and was chosen to voice a character in the game Curiosity. This has already been officially launched on Steam. He took to X/Twitter to share how much he enjoyed the experience and thanked those involved for the opportunity.

"This was an absolute joy…thank you @GrandPOOBear, @play_curiosity. Check it out! Available now on Steam!" he wrote.

Unfortunately, things have not changed, and fans won't get to see Adam Cole anytime soon. But people have come back from even worse, and this may not be the last they will see of him just yet.
