The 2024 AEW Double or Nothing event saw Adam Copeland successfully retain his AEW TNT Championship against Malakai Black. The high-stakes barbed wire steel cage match unquestionably transcended expectations.

Adam Copeland confirms he will undergo surgery
The match between Adam Copeland and Malakai Black left nothing to be desired from start to finish. During the closing moments of the match, Copeland set up Black on a table and scaled that steel cage to deliver an elbow drop. However, Copeland got the worst from the exchange as he fractured his shin bone following the impact.
Speculation ran rampant among the wrestling community about a possible leg injury suffered by Copeland during the electrifying match. Taking to X, Copeland finally broke his silence and addressed that he would have to undergo surgery.
He shared, “ I’ve been feeling really good lately. Been having so much fun in the ring, and I got cocky, I guess, is what it really boils down to, and I’m probably a narcissist and an ego-maniac, and I’ll unpack that one day. My brain forgets what my body always seems to remember a little late is that I’m 50, and I need to make better choices. So my body pulled the emergency break on me the other night, and I ended up fracturing my tibia, which is going to require surgery. Don’t know the time frame on that yet. Ruby’s birthday is on Friday so I really want to enjoy that.”
By the looks of things, the wrestling legend will remain on the sidelines for months. Usually, an injury of that sort requires three months of recovery before therapy. Nonetheless, Copeland will now be forced to vacate the TNT Championship despite his valiant effort. Meanwhile, The wrestling world eagerly anticipates the unveiling of the title's next holder.
