Edge’s WWE contract expired last month and there was a lot of talk about the Rated R Superstar making the jump to AEW. That’s exactly what he did as Adam Copeland made his AEW debut at the WrestleDream pay-per-view on Sunday night.
For decades now Adam Copeland has been a WWE guy, but it doesn’t sound like there’s any hard feelings when it comes to him jumping to AEW. The Hall of Famer recently spoke to Sports Illustrated about WWE’s reaction to his big move and he indicated that many people have reached out to show their support.
“I am so thankful for every aspect of my career, and I’ll be forever thankful for the WWE. It was the only place I wanted to work. We reached a place where we’d done all we could do together. 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.”
