Backstage News On Original Creative Plans For Adam Copeland And Christian Cage In AEW

Pro wrestling legends and current AEW stars Adam Copeland and Christian Cage are set to team up for the first time in years at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, where they will face Nick Wayne and Kip Sabian in a tag team match. Dave Meltzer discussed on the latest Wrestling Observer Radio that this tag team bout was initially intended to have championship implications.

Meltzer noted that the original plan was for Copeland and Cage to secure a victory to set up a future title match, making this a significant opportunity for Sabian and Wayne. However, it was later mentioned in the report that having Copeland and Cage participate in a tag team title match may no longer be part of the plan.
