AEW star Adam Copeland recently spoke with TSN on a number of topics including how he wants to be there for talents that are one day on a role, then suddenly falls off the next day.
Copeland said, “Maybe somebody’s on a bit of a roll on TV, and then they’re off [all of a sudden].”“As a young performer, you go, ‘What did I do [wrong]?’ I wanna be there for guys like that or women like that because I’ve been through it, and I understand that there’s peaks and valleys.”
Copeland also talked about how he wants to help the younger talents in AEW, possibly in a backstage capacity.
“I truly think backstage and [I can] help young talent navigate through what might kinda feel like stormy waters, or confusing waters and in crafting stories, crafting characters, helping create a character that has layers instead of thinking just, ‘Okay, this is my idea: I want to create a group.’ Okay, and? There’s gotta be more than that.” “What else? What’s the reason? What other characters, and what’s their reasoning? There has to be reason. It’s like any television show in that regard, right?”
