Brandon Cutler, known for his association with the Young Bucks, recently raised eyebrows with comments suggesting that Adam Copeland, better known as Edge, and Eddie Kingston might be causing tensions backstage in AEW.
Cutler’s remarks came following a brutal post-match assault orchestrated by the Young Bucks on Sting and Darby Allin.
On the February 10 episode of Collision, Copeland addressed the Young Bucks’ actions and issued a warning, while Kingston accused them of overshadowing Sting and Allin. Cutler’s X post hinted at discontent among talent, suggesting that Copeland and Kingston might be speaking out of turn, prompting one source to advise them to “stay in [their] own lane.”
Meanwhile, Copeland, who transitioned from WWE to AEW in 2023, has been vocal about the importance of competition in wrestling.
Sources backstage are saying both Adam Copeland and Eddie Kingston have been rubbing talent the wrong way, often speaking out of turn.
