Though she isn't part of the company, Beth Phoenix is still playing some role in Adam Copeland's AEW run.
Copeland confirmed to Bleacher Report's Chris Mueller that Phoenix voices the "You think you know him" at the beginning of his AEW theme music. Copeland and Phoenix, who have been married since 2016, recorded the clip for Copeland's music themselves.
"I don't know if this counts as breaking news or whatever, but I was able to confirm with him today that not only is the voice at the beginning of Adam Copeland's AEW entrance music that of Beth Phoenix, but that it was Edge and Beth who recorded the clip themselves," Mueller wrote on social media.
Copeland retained "Metalingus" by Alter Bridge as his AEW theme song. It was also his music in WWE. The opening from Phoenix is a new addition to the theme.
Copeland and Phoenix are both WWE Hall of Famers. Copeland was inducted in 2012 and Phoenix was inducted in 2017.
While speaking at the post-WrestleDream media scrum following his AEW debut. Copeland was asked if we could see him and Phoenix work together in AEW. Copeland said he doesn't know about the possibility of that in the foreseeable future, but Phoenix is always vital to his work as a sounding board.
I mean, any time I get to be close to Beth obviously I’m gonna be super excited about that. I don’t know about the possibilities of that in the foreseeable, but I love being around her obviously.
And we’ve had a blast when we did get to work together. But where she will be instrumental without everyone knowing it is she’s my sounding board. So if you’ve seen me do something, or you see something that you think worked, it was always bounced off Beth and then she always gives me better ideas back. It’s kind of amazing to be married to a Hall of Famer, it’s pretty cool... who can suplex you.
In WWE, Copeland and Phoenix teamed together twice in mixed tag matches. The couple has two daughters together.
Copeland is scheduled to appear on both AEW Dynamite and Collision this week. His AEW in-ring debut will be against Luchasaurus at Dynamite Title Tuesday on October 10.
