Adam Copeland thinks WWE and AEW stacking the deck for their head-to-head showdown tonight is a good thing for all involved.
“The Rated-R Superstar” recently appeared as a guest on The Masked Man Show to promote his AEW in-ring debut at Dynamite: Title Tuesday tonight against Luchasaurus.
During the discussion, the former WWE Superstar known as Edge explained why WWE and AEW stacking the deck for tonight’s head-to-head showdown is a good thing.
“Who cares [if] ‘I’m only this guy, I’m only this guy.’ This is awesome,” Copeland exclaimed. “How can you not enjoy the fact that both shows are trying to load up and trying to put the best show on imaginable? That’s all I really care about. I’ll try to make sure that my part of the show is all killer, no filler. That’s my only job.”
Copeland continued, “I’m sure both will get watched, when it’s all said and done with DVR and however else it gets computed since everything with ratings is so antiquated. It’s fun. I remember flipping back and forth between Nitro and Raw. That’s kind of what this is. I don’t see that as a bad thing at all. I think it’s great. The performers themselves, there is none of this weird tribalism. Within any industry, sure, there is competition, but I’m happy for those guys and they’re happy for us. When there are choices and there is another company that can push the other company, that’s when you get the best stuff.”
