In a recent interview with Stephen Brunt for Up Close (via Fightful), Adam Copeland shared the reasoning behind his decision to shorten his ring name to just ‘Cope’ in AEW. He went into detail about the thought process that led to the change and how it reflects his evolution as a wrestler in the company. Copeland also touched on the significance of the name and how it fits with the new chapter in his career.
Adam Copeland said:
“I go to AEW, and now I’m Copeland, or Cope. I’m trying to get the Cope thing (over) because it just looks sexier on a marquee.“
