"Never say never in wrestling, because I would imagine they could always extend [John Cena’s] date past the end of the year. But no—Adam’s going to be here with us through the year," Tony said in the Ariel Helwani Show. A major reason behind the rumors was the fact that Copeland was written off AEW TV.
