Adam Copeland took a trip down memory lane on AEW Dynamite, as he brought back the bloodbath.
The rivalry between TNT Champion Adam Copeland and Malakai Black has quickly heated up in recent weeks. Black has tried to coax Copeland into leaning into his dark side, and Black stole Copeland’s wedding ring on the May 15 episode of AEW Dynamite.
On the May 22 episode, Black defeated Kyle O’Reilly in a hard-fought match. After the bell, the lights flashed red, and when they came back on, red liquid that looked like blood fell from the ceiling and completely covered Black and the ring canvas. Copeland then appeared on the screen and ominously warned Black to be careful what he wished for. He was wearing a suit, and his demeanor seemed much darker than usual.
