"They have seen a ghost," "AEW storylines are better than WWE" - Fans erupt after Cope (Fka Edge) returns at AEW All In

AEW All In: Texas witnessed the return of Cope (fka Edge) for the first time since April. Fans are now reacting to the Rated-R Superstar's pay-per-view comeback and reunion with a former friend turned bitter rival.

The AEW World Tag Team Title was on the line this Saturday at All In 2025. The champions, Shelton Benjamin and Bobby Lashley of The Hurt Syndicate, defended their straps against JetSpeed and the "father-son" duo of Christian Cage and ROH World Television Champion, Nick Wayne. The bout ended with The All Mighty spearing The Patriarch for the cover and the win.

After the matchup, Cage was betrayed by Wayne, his mother Shayna, and their stablemate Kip Sabian. The Prodigy was about to deliver a Con-Chair-To on Christian, with FTR gleefully watching on (owing to their recent issues with The Instant Classic). However, the returning Adam Copeland arrived just in the nick of time to save his long-time friend and tag team partner.
