In a stunning revelation, Adam Copeland, also known as Edge, hinted that his reign as TNT Champion may be coming to an end at the hands of top AEW star, Kyle O’Reilly. The two superstars recently clashed in an epic main event on AEW Collision, with Copeland emerging victorious. However, the Rated-R Superstar was full of praise for O’Reilly, suggesting that the talented wrestler has what it takes to dethrone him.
O’Reilly, who has been in top form since returning from a serious injury, has been on a mission to claim championship gold. Despite falling short in his recent International Championship match against Roderick Strong, he remains determined to secure a title. After saving Copeland from a vicious assault by the House of Black on AEW Dynamite, O’Reilly requested a title shot, which Copeland granted.
The thrilling match between Copeland and O’Reilly ended with the champion retaining his title, but the respect and admiration between the two competitors were palpable. In a backstage interview, Copeland praised O’Reilly, stating that he has the skills and talent to take the TNT Championship from him in their next encounter.
Meanwhile, Copeland has been dealing with the House of Black, who have been causing chaos in AEW. After successfully defending his title against Buddy Matthews and Brody King, Copeland was assaulted by the group, only to be saved by O’Reilly. The drama escalated when Copeland issued a challenge to Malakai Black for a TNT Championship match at AEW Double or Nothing, with the added stipulation of a barbed wire steel cage match.
It remains to be seen if Black will accept the challenge, but one thing is certain: the road to AEW Double or Nothing has just gotten a lot more interesting. With O’Reilly waiting in the wings, Copeland’s title reign is under threat like never before. Will the Rated-R Superstar be able to fend off the challenges and retain his title, or will a new champion emerge in the coming weeks? One thing is for sure – the AEW universe is on high alert, eagerly anticipating the next development in this thrilling saga.
