Adam Cole has been sidelined from in-ring competition in AEW due to a concussion he suffered at Forbidden Door 2022. Britt Baker recently highlighted her frustrations with wrestling fans, urging the injured star to return to the promotion.

In August, Cole returned for a brief segment alongside Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish, where they turned on The Young Bucks, much to everyone's dismay. Since then, reports have highlighted that his injury was indeed a cause for concern for his wrestling career.

On the latest edition of the Swerve City podcast, Britt Baker talked about how Adam Cole gets hate from fans for no reason:

“Talk about social media, he’s the nicest guy I think in all of wrestling and gets so much hate for no reason. He has not been on TV for months and he’s trending every other day for something like this reason, that reason. ‘We don’t want him here. We want him here,’ this, that. ‘It’s like, shut up and leave him alone and let him heal.”

The former AEW Women's Champion stated that it was heartbreaking to see how social media users have little regard for Cole's health situation.

“He loves wrestling more than any fan on the planet. He lives for professional wrestling and all he wants to do is put on a good performance for all the fans. That’s all he cares about. So it’s like when these fans just get on him about something, it’s so frustrating and heartbreaking to me because I know all he wants is to make fans happy. Whether it’s like, be the best heel he can be or be the best babyface he can be.” (H/T Wrestle Zone)
