This past Sunday, Adam Copeland, also known as Edge, made his All Elite Wrestling debut at WrestleDream, where he saved Sting and Darby Allin. The Rated R Superstar will appear this Wednesday on AEW Dynamite. Edge is scheduled to face Luchasaurus on the October 10th episode of Dynamite Title Tuesday.
Edge last wrestled in WWE on the August 18th episode of SmackDown in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, where he defeated Sheamus. That was the first time The Rated R Superstar faced The Celtic Warrior in WWE.
In an interview with CBS Sports, Edge discussed his final match in WWE.
“Honestly, that Toronto show was a send-off of that character and it was the perfect way for that character to go out. Wrestling a guy that I’ve never wrestled that I always wanted to. It was just so much fun in there. That night, I’ll never forget it. I’ll always have that night with me. I told Sheamus that too. That will be one of the most special nights in my career, always.”
Edge also stated in the interview that his daughters and wife Beth Phoenix encouraged him to join AEW and work with Christian Cage.
Edge’s WWE deal expired last month on September 21st.
