Adam Cole Captures the TNT Title

TNT Championship Match!

Daniel Garcia (c.) vs. Undisputed Kingdom’s Adam Cole!

There is no time limit, no outside interference.

Cole clocked Garcia with a thrust kick. Cole jumped off the apron, looking for a Panama Sunrise, and tweaked his surgically repaired ankle as Garcia dodged him. Garcia began to kick at the knee and ankle. 

Garcia nailed Cole with three consecutive swinging neck breakers. Cole grabbed Garcia and planted him with a neck breaker across his knee. Daniel drove through with a wicked lariat. Garcia spiked Cole with a twisting Gotch style piledriver!

Cole planted Garcia with the Panama Sunrise on the floor! Cole dropped his knee pad and went to lower the boom, but Garcia dropped flat out of exhaustion. Cole charged at Garcia, but his ankle gave out. Garcia drilled Cole with the Panama Sunrise and then lowered the boom for a near fall, hitting Cole with two of Cole’s best moves!

Garcia looked over at the turnbuckles, thinking about inflicting some punishment to Cole the way MJF did damage to Garcia. Cole fought his way out of Garcia’s grasp, though. Adam Cole regained momentum with a Panama Sunrise. Cole delivered a second Panama Sunrise! Cole accelerated and lowered the boom, pinning Garcia and becoming the new TNT Champion!

“This has been quite the battle between the two. It’s been one of the great rivalries in AEW and now it culminates with Adam Cole winning the championship,” said Schiavone.

After the match, Cole and Garcia shook hands.

“The era of Adam Cole as TNT Champion has dawned,” said Excalibur.
