Kyle Fletcher Gives His Thoughts On Adam Copeland’s Looming Retirement, Wants To Wrestle Him Again Before He Retires

Kyle Fletcher has given his thoughts surrounding Adam Copeland’s upcoming retirement, noting that he wants a rematch.

Adam Copeland would recently announce that he would be retiring from the world of professional wrestling soon, and has made it his mission to capture the AEW World Title before walking away from the sport. One man he could end up challenging for the gold is Fletcher, who will challenge for the belt at AEW Full Gear.

While speaking to TMZ Sports in a new interview, Kyle Fletcher was asked about Copeland’s looming retirement.

“My thoughts are, I think he is an absolute legend in the sport, and I think that he, dude, he was a part of my childhood. He was a part of so many people’s childhoods and one of the best things and the best feelings in wrestling is that nostalgia and remembering, how it made you feel when you’re a kid, and I think he was probably one of the first wrestlers that I watched, you know? So for me, it’s a lot of mixed emotions. I’m obviously very sad. I watched him retire in whatever it was, I believe 2010, and I thought that was going to be the end of it. I was watching live when he made his return and yeah, that was very emotional too. So I’m sure watching him retire will be very emotional as well. But I will say that now I have been able to get in the ring with him. I’ve pinned him, and I.. I would not… I would very much like to… get in there with him again before he retires because I would like to show the world that I am far superior to him.”

Elsewhere in the same interview, Fletcher spoke about potentially returning to Blood And Guts in the future. You can read more about that here.
