Adam Copeland Makes Christian Cage Quit, Wis TNT Championship – Adam Copeland emerged victorious in tonight’s AEW Dynamite main event, clinching the AEW TNT Championship from his longtime friend, Christian Cage, in a gripping “I Quit” match.
The intense showdown culminated with Copeland’s strategic maneuver, utilizing ‘Spike,’ a baseball bat embedded with metal nails, to deliver a decisive blow to Cage’s groin, securing the win. Notably, this achievement marks Copeland’s second reign as the TNT Champion, with his previous stint lasting only a brief duration.
Here is a full recap of the match:
Christian Cage starts out attacking Adam Copeland, but he responds by sending Cage face-first into the turnbuckle, and this fight then immediately spills out into the fans. Copeland dumps Cage into the penalty box and brawls with Cage. They put on hockey jerseys and then brawl again as Cage gets launched into a sign and then several steel guardrails.
Things then spill further backstage, but after Copeland sips a beer from a fan he loses Cage. He runs into the women’s bathroom but Copeland drags him back out and continues to brawl with him all around the fans. They head back to ringside and Copeland pulls out a ladder which he makes into a bridge between the announce table and the timekeeper’s area. They start fighting on that as Copeland drives Cage down onto the steel.
Copeland then inverts the ladder in the ring and throws Cage stomach first into the middle rungs, but he still doesn’t quit. He sets a table to lean on the barricade, but as Copeland goes for a Spear Cage leapfrogs it to avoid the move and then pokes him in the eye straight after and sends him into the stairs which busts Copeland open. Cage then takes to the top turnbuckle and hits a crossbody which sends Copeland crashing through the table he set up.
Back inside the ring, Cage sends Copeland head-first into a ladder, but he still doesn’t quit. However, the TNT Champion then misses with a Frog Splash, and that leads to Copeland locking in a Crossface, but he gets out by gauging the eye again. Cage looks to walk to the back, but Copeland gives chase as he sends Cage head-first into the entrance tunnel. He then launches Cage off the stage.
Copeland pulls out a hockey goal and throws Cage onto it before throwing him in it. Copeland then fights Cage back to ringside, but Mother Wayne appears and uses a hocky stick to nail a low blow, and Cage then splits the stick on his back. Cage then pulls out a barbed wire wrapped chair, placing Copeland’s head on a normal one, but Copeland avoids teh con-chair-to. He tries to use that weapon himself, but Cage kicks him, only for Copeland to nail him with the hocky stick.
He grabs it and puts it in his mouth with a cross-face, and he then uses the drawstring from his tights to choke him, but Nick Wayne and Killswitch appear. Daddy Magi and Daniel Garcia turn up and help, as Killswitch gets hit with the Impaler onto the barbed wire chair. Copeland then climbs a ladder and dives out of the ring to attack both Wayne and Killswitch. They both get handcuffed, and Mother Wayne then runs away as Cage realizes he’s alone against all three men. They beat him down as Copeland hits a Spear, and then Cage gets handcuffed.
Copeland nails several low blows to Cage, but he doesn’t quit. Copeland then brings out Spike, and hits a low blow with that. He sets up to nail Cage with it in the head, but at that point, he quits.
Winner (and new TNT Champion): Adam Copeland
