Ricochet showed a bit of resistance but Adam delivered him a super kick as well. Cole brought his iconic move and got the fans cheering for him. The arena was electric and the commentators raved about Cole. The segment went viral on social media and the fans compared Cole with Michaels.
Adam and HBK share many similarities as wrestlers. By the looks, they seem similar given their face and hairstyle. Even physically, they aren't as mighty as other wrestlers and appear nearly similar. Their in-ring gears are very similar too.
Both Cole and Shawn have a Super kick in their armoury. However, Michaels' Sweet Chin Music is his finishing move. Their characters are similar too and they speak well on the mic. The duo worked together in WWE's NXT where they were often compared by the fans. The tradition has continued despite Adam moving to AEW.
