Adam Copeland

He was one of the 2,747 that WrestleTix reported, uh, which is down 30% from the last time they were here for Dynamite when they had 3,900 on April 30th, 2025.

We are starting off with Adam Copeland backstage.

He has requested this time.

He is with Darby and Steven Borden, and notes how Darby has had his back since he arrived here in AEW.

I, I don't know, I didn't know that this was a meme that has taken on, uh, enough to warrant a shirt, but I saw that AEW is selling this shirt now.

It, it's really just kinda taken off over, like, the past week or a little over a week.

And yeah, it's referencing, I mean, at this point, a pretty infamous, you know, promo between Adam Copeland and Ricky Starks that really just kinda went outta hand, um, improvised and, I mean, we all remember it.

We all remember how awkward it was.

A few things that are not expected and I don't know what will happen.

Who do you think will be the next opponent of Edge? What do you think about that? The opponent in WrestleMania? This is one thing.

Second thing, I know that there are, like, less important, uh, championships.

What do you think will be with the Intercontinental Cham-Championship, the United States Championship? That's it.

So who do I think is gonna be US champion at WrestleMania? We're gonna ha- I, I can't answer that because I don't know who or if Brock Lesnar's gonna be WWE champion af- after Elimination Chamber.

I can answer that after.

Uh, as far as Edge goes, that is a good question.

You know, when I look at the Raw roster, let, let's take a look at that.

Okada will defend the International Championship against Tommaso Ciampa.

In a three-way ladder match for the AEW tag titles, you have Christian Cage and Adam Copeland defending the belts against FTR and The Young Bucks, and then you have Will Ospreay defending the AEW World Championship against Jon Moxley.

So that's a pretty solid card, and I don't think you really need to overdo it.

I mean, of course, AEW always overdoes it.

It's a gorgeous day, a gorgeous scene, and a spectacle here in Melbourne where we will get the Jonas Brothers at halftime.

You will get Adam Copeland.

Even.

Fair trade.

All right.

We'll be with you until 6 o'clock tonight.

Adam Copeland, Derek Papa, Danny Dunn hanging out.

What are we doing next here?

We also got, uh, Derek Jones.

What's up, Derek? He says, um, "If Austin Creed wrestles Adam Copeland or Adam Cole one-on-one in a very hot arena in Atlantic City-

[laughs]

... would the AEW sickos chant, 'Let's go AC, AC sucks'"?

You

know what the funny thing is? I could see Edge singing his too.

Which one? Metalingus.

But

Fun.

Ooh.

The second match, is Cope and Cage, Edge and Christian, versus FTR, versus the Young Bucks, for the Tag Team Championships.

And as Edge put it, this match might include chairs, this match might include tables, and this match might include ladders.

I am here with David Forrest.

And once again, perish the thought, it's time for Edge versus Matt Hardy.

David, you-

Once in a lifetime.

[laughs]

Again, again.

This is the third Edge Matt Hardy match in two weeks that we have, uh, [laughs] covered, and, uh, I don't know about you, David, I for one am certainly not sick of the sight of these two gentlemen.

I know.

Now, back to Dirty Work.

Adam Copeland and Derek Papa on KNBR 104.5 and 680 AM.

The Sports Leader.

Dirty Work on a Wednesday evening.

Adam Copeland, D-Pop, Dan Dunn.

What are we hearing here, Danny? This is what you were traded for.

This is what you were traded for? Jonas Brothers.

It was the trade-off, right.

some of the circumstances they created for themselves by running all in and all out so close together the stuff with andy and rebel you know that that i think was life happening back to back and that maybe threw off the cadence of things a little bit uh and there were some people that were injured coming out of all in so we're gonna talk about uh what happened in our women's world title picture as well But we open with Darby Copeland and Borden at FTR and Knight and Fletcher.

Adam Copeland just leaning into the odd dude stuff by wearing the odd dude shirt made me very, very happy.

Like, I love when wrestlers are able to poke at themselves a little bit with stuff.

And wrestlers of Copeland's age are maybe not necessarily known for that.

They're maybe not known for being low-ego about stuff, so that made me very happy to see.

But...

You have Adam Copeland putting over the dashing Stephen Borden's performance last week and says he wants him to keep building on it.

And Christian Cage tells him that he's sorry about the loss of his father's sin ring career.
