Adam Copeland (fka Edge) opens up about his AEW run
WWE Hall of Famer Adam Copeland (fka Edge) expressed his opinions on AEW being a major wrestling promotion and how he is enjoying his time there.
At the AEW WrestleDream 2023 PPV, Adam Copeland (fka Edge) shocked the world by making his All Elite debut after spending 25 years of his legendary career in WWE. It was later revealed that he had signed a full-time contract with Tony Khan's promotion and is currently feuding with his real-life friend, Christian Cage.
During his recent interview with Sports Illustrated, Copeland explained why AEW is important for the pro wrestling industry and why he is having a blast being there:
"Any time there is more than one place to ply your trade, that’s good for everyone who is part of that trade. A monopoly is never a good idea. That goes for me as a consumer, too. As a consumer, I want more choices. That doesn’t mean you have to choose one over the other. You can choose them all."
He further added:
"I remember growing up and dying to be able to get my hands on NWA tapes. I found International Wrestling from Montreal. That’s why AEW is great. It’s so cool to see different wrestling. This is really special, and I’m having a blast being here.” (H/T Wrestletalk)
