Top AEW star Adam Copeland (Cope) spoke with Sports Illustrated’s Rick Ucchino for The Takedown on a number of topics, including AEW World Champion Jon Moxley.
Copeland said, “I look at Mox as a throwback. He reminds me a little bit of, you know, Terry Funk. He’s got a little Roddy Piper to him, he’s got, like, that throwback feel but with a modern take.”
On his expectations for their match:
“I’d love to just get in there and just have it be a gnarly fight, a gnarly, you know, grappling wrestling. Just a hard-hitting heavyweight match between two dudes who are over 230 pounds and are just gonna take each other’s heads off — that sounds like a good night.”
