Edge fractured his tibia and will need surgery. He says he doesn’t know how long he will be out but some have speculated at least 4 to 6 month recovery.

“I guess the house always does win because I gained two new friends [showed crutches]. I don’t really like them. They’re like those buddies that just annoy you, but they’re always there. Anyway, I’ve been feeling really good lately. Been having so much fun in the ring, and I got cocky, I guess, is what it really boils down to, and I’m probably a narcissist and an ego-maniac, and I’ll unpack that one day. My brain forgets what my body always seems to remember a little late is that I’m 50, and I need to make better choices. So my body pulled the emergency break on me the other night, and I ended up fracturing my tibia, which is going to require surgery. Don’t know the time frame on that yet.”
- Adam Copeland, done probably for the rest of the year with a fractured tibia.

That man landed on his feet doing an elbow drop off the top of a cage. What did he think would happen?

Damn. I mean, it's not surprising anyone watching that spot knew it was stupid. You gotta really work hard to do the most reckless spot on a show featuring Darby and someone literally getting lit on fire. But here we are.
I was looking forward to Calgary hoping I'd finally get to see him wrestle live. Hopefully next year.

Almost like a 50 year old shouldn't be jumping off a cage. There is a reason why WWE says no to a bunch of spots.

I just watched it. What the hell was Copeland thinking?? Seriously, I get that the "shackles are off" now for these guys who wrestled 25 years in the WWE with having to wrestle a certain safe way, but now that these wrestlers are 40 - 53 years old in the ring, taking ridiculous bumps that are unneeded, it comes as no surprise they are getting injured so badly now.

Match shouldn’t have been what it was and he should’ve stopped doing those spots fifteen years ago. You’d think they’d put a ban on these insane spots for awhile when so much of their roster is out long term.

Obviously it sucks whenever someone gets injured but what a wit. Jumping that high and landing feet first in a spot that wasn't even that impressive looking, what did he expect? Idiot, I hope it hurt. I wonder if this'll make them tone down on their high risk, no reward, no one will remember next week spots that they seem to indulge in. Probably not.

Well, not saying he’s right, but one is jumping from a large height and landing on your feet when the padding of the ring could easily prevent landing correctly and the other is just taking a bump on a gimmicked ladder.
