WWE Hall of Famer Adam “Edge” Copeland recently appeared on “The Masked Man Show” to talk about a number of topics including what AEW TNT Champion Christian Cage has accomplished so far with his run.
Copeland said, “Absolutely, because I know this is him without the governor on him. This is him being allowed to express his mind and how he thinks of things and stories, and not only that, but teaching all of the people that are with him because you can see already how much Luchasarus has grown.”
Copeland also talked about Cage’s character being as over as it is.
“When he picked up the belt and turned away, it was the biggest reaction of his career and it wasn’t just a pro wrestling move, it was from turning away while holding a belt. That’s character, now they care about the character. He can do moonsaults off the top, which is crazy because he’s a freak, but that means they are starting to care about the character now and that is the difference between being a wrestler and being over as a wrestler. That’s what Jay brings to the table, so watching him do this now and watching him create, that’s super fun, man.”
