On a recent edition of the “Swerve City” podcast, TNT Champion Adam Copeland shared his insights on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the wrestling industry.
Copeland was under contract with WWE during the pandemic. After finishing up with WWE last year, he signed with AEW.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On what he took away from wrestling during the pandemic era: “It was much more personal and I actually enjoyed that aspect of the pandemic. I hated wrestling in front of no one but I really liked doing promos — I call them monologues.”
On His “Greatest Wrestling Match Ever” bout with Randy Orton: “It was fun to explore it and work with what we had, which wasn’t much at that point. What a ridiculous title … What does that mean? There no such thing as the ‘greatest’ anything.”
On his second match back having no fans: “It’s my second match back in 10 years and we have no fans. We ended up having some of the NXT folk there, but still it was like ‘This is ridiculous.’”
Edge won his Last Man Standing Match against Randy Orton at WrestleMania 36. Orton won their rematch, The Greatest Wrestling Match Ever, later in the year at WWE Backlash 2020.
