Jim Ross recently took to his “Grilling JR” podcast to discuss a variety of topics, including the rumors that Edge may be coming to AEW once his current WWE contract expires at the end of September.
Additionally, the WWE Hall of Famer and AEW commentator opined on who he’d like to see the Rated R Superstar face, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On which matches he’s imagine for Edge in AEW: “I haven’t given it much thought. I mean … how about Edge and Kenny Omega? Things like that. I think Edge and Will Ospreay …There’s a million ways to monetize this potential.”
On how likely he thinks it is that Edge comes to AEW: “I have no inside stuff. Again, my quote would be ‘JR thinks it’s going to be a long shot at best if Edge ever competes — if Adam Copeland ever competes … in AEW.’ Would I like to see it happen? Absolutely. I’m a wrestling fan. Those matches just came off the top of my head that I’m sure other fans are right on top of and agree. Would you like to see Edge and Chris Jericho? Hell yeah.”
On how Edge would fit in AEW: “Yeah, he would fit in. But I don’t know what his goals are. I don’t know how Adam wants to work. Four or five times a year, or whatever? That’s the thing you’ve got to be careful of, getting these contracts, getting guys and you’re limited in when you can use them. Anyway, it’ll work out in the wash, as Granny would say. At some point in time, we’ll know.”
