Adam Copeland is eager to make his return to the ring. During a recent interview with Toronto Leafs Nation, the WWE Hall of Famer opened up about his recovery process following his injury at AEW’s Double Or Nothing and provided an update on his comeback timeline.
Reflecting on the incident, Copeland humorously acknowledged the risks of his high-flying style at his age. “My brain forgets I’m 51, but my body quickly reminded me, yeah, you just jumped from 21 feet, assh*le,” he said, referencing the Steel Cage match spot against Malakai Black that caused the injury. “That’s technically three stories. You’re 51, quit it.”
Despite the setback, Copeland revealed that his recovery has gone well and hinted at a return in the near future. “But I feel good,” he assured fans. “I’m ready to get back at it and to get busy again.”
While no official date has been announced, it’s clear the multi-time World Champion is eager to rejoin AEW’s dynamic roster, working with today’s rising stars and enjoying the final years of his active career on his own terms.

Adam Copeland’s AEW Run
Adam Copeland’s AEW journey began with his debut at WrestleDream in October 2023, marking his first promotion change since 1997 and the start of a new chapter under his real name rather than his WWE moniker “Edge.”
His most significant achievement has been capturing the TNT Championship twice, with his first title victory coming through an emotional “I Quit” match against Christian Cage in Toronto. Throughout his reign, he defended the title in memorable matches against opponents like Malakai Black in a Barbed Wire Steel Cage match and faced off against wrestling legend Minoru Suzuki on Dynamite.
Beyond his in-ring accomplishments, Copeland has received widespread acclaim for delivering some of his career-best performances in AEW, while also embracing a mentorship role with younger talent. His rivalry with Christian Cage became a highlight of his AEW tenure, drawing strong reviews from longtime fans and pundits.
