Jim Ross on Reuniting With Adam Copeland in AEW, Christian Cage’s Current Run

– During a recent edition of Grilling JR, Jim Ross discussed the career of Adam Copeland (formerly WWE’s Edge), reuniting with Edge in AEW, Christian Cage’s current heel run, plus more. Below are some highlights (via Fightful):
Jim Ross on reuniting with Copeland: “I had breakfast with Edge in Salt Lake City the morning of his debut on TNT and Collision. We just had the best visit. It was like a reunion or something. It was [not] pro wrestling-like. We didn’t talk about headlocks or hammerlocks, or ‘Did you see that comeback?’ None of that. We just talked about how we met and my bond with his mother. She was a huge Eagles fan. Anybody who knows me knows I’m a huge Eagles fan. So that was our bond, the Eagles. So we had a great breakfast, and he’s so happy to be still in the business. He has more left, and the schedule at AEW is very friendly for a talent that’s 50 and has has multiple injuries. But he’s healthy as a horse right now, seems to me. His match with Luchasaurus was very physical on Tuesday night, and I thought it was well played out.”
Ross on Christian Cage’s current run: “He’s a hell of a heel right now. There nobody in pro wrestling that has garnered the angst and developed the antagonist image. Every time you see him, you want to slap him. He’s a phenomenal heel, and that’s just gonna make it that much easier for he and Adam Copeland to have a historically classic match when the time is right.”
