Adam Copeland Says There’s Elements To Feeling Like A Rookie Again With His AEW In Ring Debut

Adam Copeland says there’s elements to feeling like a rookie again with his AEW in ring debut.

Copeland is currently scheduled to make his in ring debut on tonight’s edition of AEW Dynamite where he will take on Luchasauras in singles action.

Speaking on The Ringer’s Masked Man Show, Copeland spoke about his impending in-ring debut.

“It’s to further the story. This is the next step to get us to where we want to go for that first tentpole and then beyond that. Also, to get in there with a guy who I have watched and always thought is money, just needed the seasoning. He’s been getting that seasoning by sitting at the hand of Christian. There is no way you’re not going to learn. It just going to happen, even if you don’t ask questions, which he does. I’m looking forward to getting in there and being like, ‘Here we go. First one, we’re in, I’ve now wrestled in a AEW ring,’ because it is a little different and there is an adjustment there. That’s really what I’ll be doing, adjusting. It’s all brand new. I don’t want to say I feel like a rookie again because I have more experience than I did back then, but there are elements to that. New ring, new audience, new barricades, new set ups. It’s also really exciting,”

Copeland is said to be looking to take over the role CM Punk served in the company prior to his firing, minus the drama.

It was also confirmed that it was Beth Phoenix who recorded the “You Think You Know Me” in Copeland’s AEW theme.
