My grandmother passed away unexpectedly the morning of the RR in '20. I'm forever thankful for Edge for being able to return made that day was less shitty. I tweeted out to him that it happened and he "liked" it, that's all i needed from him. Just to let him know how much i appreciate him.
Hope you’re doing well now 🙏🏾❤️
That's such a wholesome story man
My grandmother passed that exact same day. His return was the first moment I forgot for a moment
Sorry about your grandma, but awesome that Edge's return gave you a moment away from your grief. I find, for me, that wrestling makes me forget about my problems. Even if it's just for a few minutes it puts a smile on my face and I feel excited enough that I forget about my sadness!!!
Glad you got that moment of reprieve mate, that's what we're all here for, to escape the world and forget for a moment. Best wishes man.
Love the intros of these interviews with the guests pulling up, checking out the studio, etc. Appreciate the interviews and all of the work you (and Hotdog) put into them.
Same! ❤
I swearrr the intro bangss
As a long time Sam Roberts viewer, I knew that kid had to be his son after seeing him with Dad's old hair lmao
Yep yep
Ofle just did @@howardfarewell1713
2 hour Edge interview?! Hell yeah, I’m strapped in!
So happy this happened. 2 hours of listening to my favorite wrestler of all time 🙏🏼
Same here 🙌
Facts
Real🔥
Edge/Adam Copeland. Such a legend and an inspiration. And for me personally a huge inspiration. To come back to wrestling after being told he was done resonated so much with me. It actually put in motion me getting back into Karate after told I was done too. He'll never see this comment, but lord I have to thank him for his return to wrestling. That 2020 rumble pop will live with me forever.
It’s interesting to watch Edge just show up at guy’s house and say hello to the wife, kids, and dogs. Then do an interview in the basement
Adam rocking a Mr. Bungle shirt. Amazing. Looking forward to listening to the rest.
California also, best album!
Calling him by his real name is cringe
@@TheBlindEye90 I think actually caring is way cringier. Enjoy your life, pal.
Adam's match against Christian at World's End was incredible. What a fun spectacle it was. It's cool seeing Adam stepping out of WWE and seeing him do something different. He's even more awesome than he already was knowing he's a Mike Patton fan.
Was there, can confirm, they had the crowd in the palm of their hand. One of the coolest things I've seen in person
@@corrupsean_ It gave me vibes of the Attitude Era and earlier days of Ruthless Aggression. The way the match played out, the electricity of the crowd, etc. It had all of the components of what made me a wrestling fan. While the table spot was botched, it actually looked more brutal because of it. RIP Nick Wayne's tailbone. Seriously, though, I hope he's okay because that looked brutal.
What part of the video does he talk about Mike Patton?
@@vlcthefish I was referencing his shirt.
@@stuckintheinbetween Ha great catch. Classic Bungle album
Edges 2020 Royal Rumble return is one of the greatest of all time
Its nice to see Sam make a career doing something he truly loves, I remember hearing him on O&A since the mid-90's talking about wrestling and he always knew his stuff. Whenever a wrestler died they kept count and Sam was the go to guy for the majority of those segments, despite how much bashing he got it made great radio and Sam never lost his love for Wrestling
I knew which kid had to be Sam's son after seeing him with his Dad's old hair style lol
@@zjdarrah LOL yes, Anthony, Jimmy, Patrice, and Opie had a ball over the years with Sams hairstyle of choice, great radio era imo
Shout out to you Sam, this podcast was a blast to listen. A living legend in Adam Copeland. 2 hours. Buckle up it was fun.
As a Torontian edge is so important to me, his matches and his character has shaped who I’ve become today, I was so lucky to see his last ever match in Toronto in WWE! Thank you Edge you’ll always be so important to me! (and props to the Mr. Bungle shirt)
Much respect to Adam one of my favorite wrestlers growing up and I got to meet in the most random way door dashing him some food and that was the most awesome experience of my life!!!
What the hell man! Your life must suck bad
One of greatest of all time, a great mind that understands the business in and out. It was a pleasure listening to the guy who has been my favourite wrestler since 2001- present❤❤
Adam Is really special...Just the perfect man for Wrestling hats off
Give us Edge vs Adam Cole at Wembley Main Event for the AEW World title in a 30-minute TLC Classic.
Adam vs Adam 🔥🔥
As a kid (10 years of age) I hated him so much, now an adult (28) I have so much respect for him
this was an EPIC interview! I haven't heard many interviews with Edge, and this was a pleasure to watch. He sounds like a really grounded dude. Much respect.
Im glad he talked about his gear in depth and how he saves everything and his process and all that. Ive been waiting for someone to ask about that for years.
This office at home for interviews is so good! It must feel so comfortable for guests. First time watching a video here, great interviewer and man Edge is so down to earth as always, love the guy!
I’ve been going down the rabbit hole on YT finding WWE superstars talking about their careers in interviews. This might be the best interview yet. Sam is the best interviewer I’ve seen. Good engaging questions and really good follow ups!
Hands down the best episode on this podcast. Thank you for this gem Sam & Adam ❤
Love This in every aspect, Edge telling stories of his wrestling career. Edge is really a true legend in this sport, I love that he says explains every detail of his career from the judgment day days to his Wrestlemania match with Mick foley.
His degree is in broadcasting. he knows how to tell a story.
that's actually something I really liked about this interview. I've seen many, but this one's the only one where I've seen him say why he was pulled frim J-Day
A friend of mine trained with Adam and Christian way back in 98. Right before they went to WWE. He also knew Just Joe. I will always remember him telling me 2 things. During KOTR 98 he said the Mankind/Taker match will be the most memorable match we will see and when Edge debuted in his first PPV that he was gonna be a huge star in the future! My friend would later go on to have huge heat with Bobby Roode and it is something I always have wanted to meet Roode for just to get his reaction lol.
What an interview! One of the best. You. Can just feel the genuine passion and fun from both here. Infectious.
Sam, I've known of you for years, never really watched your podcasts/interviews or listened to them. But i've now watched two, this one and the one with Maven. Just wanted to say, no part of this felt like an interview. Just a conversation between two dudes. Great job man! keep it up
An amazing interview! 2 hours flew by without even noticing it.
This was an awesome interview! So amazing to see Adam still reinventing himself.
This was really good! Especially the intro, it showed some normality with you guys. Always nice to see little things like that.
Man Edge seems like such a down to earth guy. Super chill and wise. He’d be great to have in any locker room. So much knowledge. Great interview.
That's def sams little boy.. look at the hair .. and how fucking awesome would it be to be them ... Famous ass wrestlers pulling up to their house to hang out with dad... That's really cool sam. I've been following you since bringing wrestling to OandA.. ITS SURREAL and cool to see you have done exactly what you wanted .
"Don't forget to shut the door on your way down" live him on inpaulsive and more in this! It's great to hear how similar how close our personalities are 😊😮
Great chemistry betseen these two. That really helped the interview get along well!
One of the best tag team matches I ever saw live was in a hockey rink in my hometown - Sexton Hardcastle & Christian Cage (Suicide Blondes) vs Don Callis & Rick Martel (The Supermodels) for Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling in the summer of 96
Hey Sam I love how you been showing the behind the scenes of the interviews of the interaction of them coming to your home and then seeing your awesome mancave ! Love watching your podcast 🤘🏻
Adam Copeland is the best wrestler
Bret Hart
@@muhammad_alshammari84 There is more to being the best wrestler than saying that you are the best wrestler. Bret Hart is a good wrestler the way Bob Holly is a race car driver.
@@redrick8900🙄🙄🙄
@@MissAlmostFine I don't speak millennial. Use words if you want to matter.
@@redrick8900 Using "millennial" as an insult??? Boring. Oh and your analogy is idiotic. Bret specifically has as good a case as anyone for best wrestler not only due to his in ring work, but ALSO due to his character work in multiple storylines.
Before I even get started, I love that he's wearing a Mr. Bungle t-shirt. Patton is the best!
That 2020 return gives me goosebumps to this day, I even dropped a tear 💯
That was a blast of a podcast.
Great interview, love you and Adam both!!
One of the best professional wrestlers ever! Such a cool guy 🔥
Man…. He is such a cool person. I love the way he can tell a story. Super funny.
you’re the luckiest man in the world sam. so proud of how far you’ve come
Once again another amazing conversation. Thank you for sharing this with the world🔥
Amazing interview. I enjoyed it so much I was actually sad when it ended.... so I watched again!
Edge is such a glass half full and positive guy. Very good interview!!!
Big ups to Adam and Christian 🙏 Always been a fan of them mugs.
That was just great! Thank you for this conversation
When moments like Adam's 2020 Rumble Return happens, I love when the commentators do their job at creating a bigger moment from it for the fans... Michael Cole: "It's been 9 long years!!!"... That'll forever be etched in my memory... Really feel good moment.
These intros are so wholesome 🥰 says a lot about Adam as a person seeing how he interacts with your family before the interview
Dudes wearing a Mr. Bungle tee. I love Edge. Amazing interview I loved listening to this
Killing it lately with the interviews. 1:40:09 .
Sam congrats on the get this is your best interview yet
Saw your Channel today. I was never big Edge fan. I became an Adam Copeland fan due to this interview. He is so grateful at the beginning of the interview of where he has been and where he is going.
Hated him when I was kid naturally because he was a heel. Grown up, I now understand how good he really was, not just the in ring action. His promos, his ability to read a crowd, his understanding that there's more than just the wrestling portion, his smarts and creativity. Interesting how his uncles death took such a huge toll on him and wrestling was the thing that hooked him to take some of the weight off the grief. Now 30+ years later dude will go down as one of the best wrestlers of all time, great podcast Adam and Sam!
What a great interview and great story.
Mania match against Taker will always be one of my favorites. Underrated match. Loved the psychology
Amazing amazing interview I love Adam. Thank you for all you have done for wrestling fans and continue to do. Hope to see you at a live event some time in Houston
Edge will always be one of my favorites. His entire career has been such a great watch.
Loved this from the beginning to the end! Thank you so much for this Sam. Even the questions were very thoughtful and thorough. I can listen to Edge/Adam all day long! My favourite wrestler of all time and a role model as a person! Edgehead / Copehead forever!
How can you not love this guy. I'm glad we still get to see him do what he loves. He won't do it forever people. Enjoy it
Adam's always been a pretty awesome dude great wrestler a true legend
Killing it lately with the interviews.
great episode man, loved to get to know Adam a bit more. i really liked the intro and outro, very wholesome. And we got two hours? *clap emoji*
This was a super pleasant surprise to wake up to!
Just when I thought I couldn’t love the guy more, he’s wearing one on my favorite albums ever Mr. Bungle California.
That’s a shirt he can’t wear an actual album
His debut in AEW he was so happy i just dont understand why people are/were upset with him its best for fans/wrestlers for two companies like what u like u dont have to $#¡+ on the opposite one
I never thought about it but edge really was the roddy piper of my generation
Really appreciate the b roll footage of when he first arrives and you welcoming him into your home.
I went already but still nice to see again. Here’s hoping someone uploads night 2
I still remember getting into wrestling through my cousin and the SvR series. The first time I looked through the SvR 09 roster and saw Edge, I thought, "This is my guy." From there onward, he was and still is my favorite of all time. His work his me in a way that not many others do, and he has been a constant role model for me. Hearing his music hit at the 2020 rumble after not paying as much attention to wrestling for a while was surreal, and Im glad he gets to "Finish his story"😉 on his own terms.
Amazing interview with my all time favorite wrestler 😌
Adam In A Word #Iconic
The thing i really appreciate about Sam is that despite working for WWE, he isn't tribalistic. Take notes people.
Wow, this was a great interview.
Edge/Adam Copeland just makes me feel invested in his stories, but at the same time, he's just good at breaking down wrestling.
Omfg i get goosebumps when edge explain bout the attitude character n nowdays how. Much people invest in the character and bout saving the top of the ladder to main event against someone special.. its all what we were thinking.. and yes it makes sense! Like finally a legit legend say it! Goosebumps!
Great interview, loved it! But I still have so many questions! 😅
Such a fantastic interview, edge fucking rules.
Sam....you have a gift for meshing with your guests.very good at what you do my friend...keep up the good work. I listen to you as I'm driving, even the 5 min drives when to find your videos take longer lol...keep up the good work
Bro Actually Pulled up to his abuse for The Pod. What a Nice Guy Adam is.
Awesome interview
this was just so sweet and AEWsome
I don’t get why fans care where a wrestler is. Just cause they are in WWE doesn’t mean they will get all the tv time. It’s fine to be in AEW or TNA.
What a fucking guy bro honestly i was like 4 years old eating a bowl of cereal and this music hits, loads of lights and noise people screaming. I had to go check it out closer. I see this dude with long hair running through smoke the titantrons in the background, then the rest is history. The entrance, the pyro, the slide into the ring. More electrifying thsn the Rock. Favourite of all time. Like many others ❤
Wow this was amazing video. If I have any criticism it is I wish there was time stamps. Even though this was just like a conversation for 2 hours.
Love this, and love the studio.
I’ve met Edge Adam Copeland in Buffalo and Rochester NY. Adam is a really nice dude. Sam your show is the best in the biz. I hear so many wrestlers call us fans Mafks lol they were all Marks till they made it and still are Marks lol
The best at doing promos edge is a legend
Great interview, don't know if I would have mentioned being proud to get a Pay Cheque during the pandemic considering the amount of layoff's WWE made during that time. But still, Adam/ Edge, will always be one of my favourite wrestlers of all time.
Adam "Edge" Copeland...... The Ultimate Oppurtunist.... The Puppet Master.... The Master Manipulator.... Thank U Sam for this absolutely incredible interview. A masterclass in villianism, storytelling, & edgeucation..... Salute To Adam & Sam!!!!! 💯 #RatedR2024
such a great interview
Won it ALL, Done it ALL! Edge is & always will be the man. Love from Toronto homie.🍁🏒🍻💯
This was 🔥. Subscribed!
Copeland is just the coolest fucking dude this interview got me to subscribe instantly good on ya sam
Great episode, Sam🫡
Thank you for this content Sam! 🔥
I don't think people see it coming, but I think there's always been a long term plan for him in AEW. He's always been a heel. He's not going to retire before a heel run.
Adam fka Edge , just wanted to say thank you man & I'm glad that your part for AEW , I was shocked when you showed up at Wrestledream , but I was happy too man still am .
Adam's wearing a Mr Bungle Shirt... That is AMAZING One of my favorite Wrestlers is wearing one of my favorite bands UNREAL
love their cover of billy squier the stroke
@@bb-gc2tx i have a video of them live back in the small club days
