Dynamite last night opened with a rally speech from TNT
champion Adam Copeland as a reaction to CM Punk’s explosive
interview earlier this week where he blasted the company for
not being a real business and labeling Tony Khan as “not a
boss.”
Copeland noted that there were a lot of negative bullshit
this week but he was out there to only talk about positive
things and put over the AEW locker room and said he would
put this AEW locker room against any other locker room he’s
been part of.
The champion mentioned a list of stars who he can face and
said that he’s having the most fun he’s ever had in his
career which started an AEW chant from the crowd. Copeland
put over The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Cody Rhodes, and Tony
Khan for starting the company and said that AEW has made the
industry and wrestling a better place and stuff like this
should be celebrated.
“AEW makes pro wrestling better. AEW makes pro wrestling
more fun and AEW is where the best wrestle,” Copeland said.
He added that there is a reason why people like Will
Ospreay, Kazuchika Okada, and Mercedes Mone chose to come to
AEW.
“There’s a reason I came here,” Copeland continued.
Earlier in the interview, Copeland mentioned “WWF” as one of
the promotions he used to watch when he was a kid and it
received some boos, but nothing that can be compared to the
early days of the company when the competition used to be
mentioned.
AEW President Tony Khan tweeted during the interview that it
means a lot to hear those AEW chants on Dynamite.
