Adam Copeland (Edge) is officially All Elite.
The WWE Hall of Famer made his official AEW debut towards the end of the WrestleDream pay-per-view at the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, WA on Sunday night. Copeland came out to help Sting and Darby Allin after the main event TNT Championship Match between Christian Cage and Allin, in which Cage retained after Nick Wayne turned on Allin.
Below is an excerpt from Alex Kahrs’ AEW WrestleDream recap of how it all went down.
Cage decides to celebrate by setting Darby up for Nick to yell at and beat down. This continues at the delight of the champion when suddenly the crowd goes wild for Sting who walks down the ramp, taking down Nick Wayne and Christian Cage! Luchasaurus comes to intervene but is held off by Sting until we end up with a 3-on-1 beatdown on the Icon!
Cage leaves the ring to grab a couple chairs, bringing them into the ring as he looks to hit a Conchairto on the legend…until the lights cut out! We get a video showcasing “Our Feature Presentation” as someone is seen driving down the roads of Seattle, before the lights come back on…
“YOU THINK YOU KNOW HIM”
“Metalingus” blares throughout the Climate Pledge Arena as any sort of edge the TNT Champion had tonight suddenly slips through his fingers. A ghost of his past walks down the ramp, staring Cage down as he enters the ring to a huge pop from the crowd. The man asks for the chair from Cage, who hands his old friend the weapon…and he has a moment to think about it, before NAILING NICK WITH THE CHAIR!
AEW has already released a brand new Rated R Era Adam Copeland T-Shirt on their ShopAEW.com website.
