Adam Copeland Recalls First Date With Beth Phoenix

– AEW star and TNT Champion Adam Copeland recently spoke to Insight with Chris Van Vliet on when he first started dating wife Beth Phoenix while they were in WWE and more. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):

Adam Copeland on his first date with Beth Phoenix: “[Our first date] was Edge Appreciation Night in Toronto. It was kinda like, This is your Life. I was almost embarrassed out there, but earlier in the day, [Beth and I] had started talking. We had talked before, but we actually sat down and had a really nice conversation just randomly sitting at ringside.”

On how they both started training in Toronto: “And then I started realizing how many similarities that we had. She had trained in Toronto. She had trained with Ron Hutchison and wrestled in the same dive bars in Parkdale that I wrestled in. I had no idea of that. She just did it seven years after me. There’s a seven year age gap. So we started talking, and then I reached out to [Natalya]. I was like, ‘I didn’t know Beth was that. What’s her deal?’ And that was really the start of it.”

Copeland and Phoenix got married in 2016. They have two kids together.
