3 Reasons Why Adam Copeland & Christian Should Challenge FTR For AEW Tag Team Championship

FTR recently defeated Brodido to become the new AEW World Tag Team Champions at AEW: Full Gear. It was an incredible win, which made the tag team 2-time tag champions in the company. Now, fans wonder who could be the next opponent of Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler in the company moving forward. While there are several names, fans have been clamoring to see Adam Copeland and Christian Cage return to confront FTR.

Cage and Copeland have been absent from All Elite Wrestling shortly after their All Out defeat to Wheeler and Harwood. There have been no clues about the whereabouts of the duo, but the chances are they could be back pretty soon. Well, it could be an incredible decision if The Rated-R Superstar and The Patriarch decided to go after the AEW World Tag Team Titles upon their return.

Therefore, let's discuss 3 reasons why Adam Copeland & Christian Cage should go after FTR's tag team titles:

#3. Unfinished business with FTR

Copeland and Cage faced FTR at All Out in September. It was a big match for the former WWE stars, and they went on to defeat Harwood and Wheeler with a little assist from Beth Phoenix. However, following the match, FTR delivered a terrible beatdown to Edge and Christian. Not only that, but the AEW World Tag Team Champions also went on to hit a Spike Piledriver to Phoenix in the ring.

Adam Copeland is yet to take revenge upon FTR for hurting his wife. Therefore, there is a lot of unfinished business between the two teams as of now. Cope and Cage can avenge Phoenix by taking away the AEW World Tag Team Titles from Harwood and Wheeler down the line. Such an angle could be an incredible follow-up to the story after the events of All Out 2025.

#2. Adam Copeland & Christian Cage are yet to win the AEW Tag Team Championships

Adam Copeland and Christian Cage reunited in professional wrestling this year as a tag team. It was an emotional reunion between the two that took the industry by storm with nostalgia. Following their reunion, they even teamed up to win matches in the Jacksonville-based promotion. However, they are yet to become the AEW World Tag Team Champions.

A title reign would be a cherry on top for the second coming of Edge & Christian as a tag team. It could be enough to sum up their respective runs in All Elite Wrestling, potentially giving closure to their careers. Besides, the legendary duo can help the company to elevate a bunch of other tag teams in the roster. Additionally, their title win would be a huge headliner for AEW all over the globe.

#1. Main event caliber tag team storyline

AEW has been struggling with its main event storyline right now. The AEW World Title picture recently witnessed the rise of Samoa Joe, and he will defend his title against Eddie Kingston. Despite it being a big match, it does not feel like a main event story. Meanwhile, a few top tag teams like FTR and a legendary duo like Adam Copeland and Christian Cage have the potential to carry the AEW main event scene for the coming weeks.

Inarguably, Edge and Christian are two of the biggest names associated with AEW right now. The company needs them to be involved in the weekly storylines, especially where the ratings are taking a dip. Therefore, such big stars being involved in the main event could help the company reinvigorate fans' interest in the weekly product.

Besides, such a personal feud for the AEW World Tag Team Championships could heavily elevate the prestige of the championships. As a result, Cage and Cope should go after FTR's newly won tag titles upon their comeback.
