When Adam Copeland would make his debut for All Elite Wrestling at AEW WrestleDream – he joined some former friends as part of the AEW roster.
With the likes of Christian Cage, Matt & Jeff Hardy, Rob Van Dam, Paul Wight, Mark Henry & Chris Jericho all part of AEW – Copeland has some familiar faces.
Jericho was one of the first to get to speak about what he expects from Copeland, and the former AEW World Champion expects to see the best run of his career.
Chris Jericho Thinks Adam Copeland Will Have Some Of His Best Work In AEW
During the post-show media scrum following AEW WrestleDream, Chris Jericho would be asked about Copeland – and what he expects to see from his longtime friend.
“I’ve known Adam since 1995. He loves wrestling. Sometimes, in other places, that love of wrestling kind of gets squashed and warped a bit, maybe. It’s not like that in AEW. When some of the other guys came, like FTR and Adam Cole and those guys, they couldn’t believe the difference and the vibe of what we have here.
Talking with Adam and seeing him come out to the ring, he’s super stoked and super excited and super motivated. When you’re motivated, that’s when great wrestlers become even better and more legendary. He’s already a great wrestler. He’s a first-round Hall of Famer. Now that he’s motivated again, I think we’re going to see some of the best work Adam Copeland has ever done now here in AEW.”
Right out of the gate, Copeland is feuding with Luchasaurus & Christian Cage – and is expected to meet Cage at AEW’s PPV event later this year – Full Gear.
Other names mentioned by Copeland are Samoa Joe & Jon Moxley, two men he’s never faced in his professional wrestling career. It’s easy to see a lot of potential from Copeland in AEW, and to see him filling the void left in the company by CM Punk.
