Stokely Hathaway reflects on his singles match with Cope.
Stokely is currently the manager for FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler), who are set to face off with Cope and Christian Cage at AEW All Out this weekend. On the August 13th edition of AEW Dynamite, Stokely would go one on one with Cope in a match that would end in a DQ victory for Cope.
While speaking to TMZ Sports in a new interview, Stokely Hathaway was asked about his singles match with Cope.
“I mean, if you go back and watch the match. I mean, anyone who saw it, they will attest to the fact that I took Adam Copeland to the limit, you know,, everything I had, you know what I’m saying? I put it into that match and Adam Copeland, he was the one who needed to be escorted out of, uh, out of the building in ambulance, you know, to be honest with you. But yeah, he thought they were going to get into that ring. He was going to manhandle me. That’s, that’s not what happened at all. It was, it was a great contest. When I got to the back, Tony Khan was crying. You know, he said he’s never seen a performance like that before. FTR, you know, they gave me a gigantic hug because, again, I took Adam Copeland to his limit. But the difference between me and FTR is the fact that at All Out, they’re not going to take Adam Copeland to the limit. They’re going to end their careers for good.”
Stokely was then asked what he meant when he previously said that he would make Cope his hoe.
“Well, after Saturday, it just means that if I say something or if FTR says something, he just has to do it. So if I say, hey, Adam. If we’re walking around backstage and I say, hey, Adam, I need you to get me a plate of catfish. That is his job.”
On this week’s edition of AEW Collision, Stokely would steal and wear Bandido’s mask. You can read more about that here.
