TL:DR: Adam Cole, recently recovered from double ankle surgery, revealed himself as The Devil and unveiled his new stable, the Undisputed Kingdom, during the January 3rd episode of AEW Dynamite. The stable, which includes The Kingdom, Wardlow, and Roderick Strong, is set to pursue individual title belts, with Cole promising a return to the ring once Wardlow secures the AEW World Title.
Adam Cole’s Return and Revelation
Adam Cole, following a double ankle surgery, made a dramatic return to AEW Dynamite on January 3rd. He revealed himself as The Devil, a storyline that was carried over from the December 30th event, Worlds End. Despite his recent surgery, Cole kicked off the show by introducing his new stable, the Undisputed Kingdom, which includes The Kingdom, Wardlow, and Roderick Strong.
The Undisputed Kingdom’s Debut
The Undisputed Kingdom made a grand entrance, complete with a big screen presentation and a new song. Cole began his promo by asking the fans for sympathy, a clever nod to his new devil persona. He then proceeded to assert that he was not the villain in the situation, and declared that MJF would not be returning, even going as far as to say that MJF was “dead.”
Future Plans for the Undisputed Kingdom
The Undisputed Kingdom has ambitious plans. Each member is set to pursue their own title belt, with Cole promising to return to the ring once Wardlow wins the AEW World Title, which he will then forfeit to Cole. The new faction is just getting started, but they have no intention of stopping until they are “covered in gold.” This bold declaration is likely to cause friction with other members of the AEW roster.
