Adam Copeland (Edge) comments on if WWE is “mad” about him leaving and joining AEW

As seen during the 2023 AEW WrestleDream PPV event, Adam Copeland (Edge) made his debut with the company. During an interview with SI.com, Copeland commented on his decision to sign with AEW…

“Halfway through the match with Sheamus in Toronto, I was thinking, ‘This is probably my last WWE match. I also started thinking, right then, ‘There is a great chance I retire after this.’ The WWE gave me that night, and I’ll hold it with me until I die. I was having so much fun. That was the perfect ending. And I guarantee you this–they’re not mad. I’m not mad. I’ve received so many texts from the office, from the travel department, from the talent relations department, from the music department, from the performers, from the big suits, and none of them are mad. They’re happy for me. And I’m happy. They’re going to continue to crush it, too. And I have more of an opportunity to help the entire wrestling business in AEW.”

Copeland also teased a match at NJPW Wrestle Kingdom against Kazuchika Okada…

“I’ve never wrestled at Wrestle Kingdom. I’ve never wrestled at Tokyo Dome. How about a match against Kazuchika Okada? That would be pretty cool. I’m pretty excited by that.”
