Adam “Edge” Copeland, who is currently on a hiatus from AEW programming, has penned an emotional message to his fans, reminiscing about his 33-year journey in the world of professional wrestling.
In a recent post on his Instagram, the WWE Hall of Famer marked the anniversary of his wrestling debut, which took place on Canada Day 33 years ago. Cope wrote,
“On Canada Day 33 yrs ago I made my wrestling debut. In Oakland Raiders Zubaz and a pair of Converse. Nowhere to go but up,” Cope wrote. “Since then, I’ve travelled the world. Literally. Everywhere you can think of. From Moose Landing to Monterrey, from Bloodvein to Bucharest. It’s been a long, fruitful, soul expanding, soul diminishing, amazing, frustrating, exhausting, exhilarating journey over 3 decades. The best part? I hear every one of you when I blast out of that entranceway and sing Metalingus at the top of your lungs. It’s never been lost on me what a privilege that is… It won’t last a lot longer so I’m gonna soak in every second. Thank you for coming along on this ride with me.”
Cope has not appeared on AEW television since the April 6th show, during which his former teammates, FTR, betrayed him.
There is currently no official timetable for Cope’s return to AEW.
