Adam Copeland talks shooting ideas with Beth Phoenix.
During Sunday’s AEW WrestleDream event, Adam Copeland made his promotional debut to confront his lifelong friend Christian Cage as he was about to conchairto Sting.
Copeland’s debut was one that has took the wrestling world by storm as the YouTube clip has amounted an incredible amount of views.
While Copeland spoke on the post show media scrum about Beth Phoenix’s contract situation being tricky, he also spoke to Bleacher Report’s Chris Mueller about how his dynamic works with wife and fellow WWE Hall Of Famer Beth Phoenix.
“What we’ll do more than anything is have kind of spitball sessions,” Copeland said. “I’ll have an idea. And I’ll say, ‘Hey, what do you think about this?’ And it’ll usually be over coffee in the morning once we’ve taken the girls to school and I’ll cook something up. She’s my sounding board. And then we’ll kind of just start going, ‘Ooh, what if we did that? And then wait, what if you did this.’
“It’s been so amazing because she’s really helped me come up with some stuff that I wouldn’t have thought of and I can’t think of off the top of my head. And that’s just really fun to sit over morning coffee in our rocking chairs on our deck and come up with cool ideas that inevitably see the light of day.
“We were big fans of each other before we were together. Like, from day one, the first time I saw her, I went, ‘Wow, man, she’s a real wrestler.’ So there was always just a deep-rooted respect for her as a performer.”
