Cope (fka Edge) has made a major revelation about his future in AEW heading into Revolution 2025. He claimed that tomorrow may be the last time he challenges for a world title.

The Rated-R Superstar will be challenging Jon Moxley for the AEW World Championship at the pay-per-view in a first-time-ever match. For the first time since becoming champion, Moxley will be alone in a title bout as three of his Death Riders stablemates have been taken out by his rivals. Meanwhile, Wheeler Yuta has seemingly turned his back on The One True King.

The WWE Hall of Famer appeared in a backstage promo earlier tonight on Collision. He addressed tomorrow's match and called out the champion for being too scared to face him. Cope believed that Moxley was afraid of him, as he was a big threat to his title reign.

The veteran then talked about his future in the business, as he claimed that he needed this win. He revealed that considering where he was in his career, this could be his final time challenging for a world title.

Cope knew the importance of his match with Jon Moxley, and it seems that he'll stop at nothing to end the title reign. Will he bring back the championship to the company and the fans? Only time will tell.

He is currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Multimedia Studies, which influenced his decision of taking up sports writing professionally, and has been an avid fan of the athletic theater since childhood. He believes readers deserve authentic and unique content and aims to report in a manner which pro wrestling fans can easily relate to.

Growing up, Enzo admired former world champions like AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, Bryan Danielson, Triple H, and Randy Orton for their finishing moves. As an adult, he started to appreciate their character work, as they juggled between heel and babyface gimmicks.

If allowed to produce one final storyline involving his idols, he would have Orton lock horns with John Cena, would be their one last big feud as both of them seem to be approaching the tail end of their careers.

Other than pro wrestling, Enzo enjoys keeping up with Basketball, Football, and Formula One. He also loves watching films, playing video games, and listening to music.
