Copeland defeated Josh Alexander in a Clockwork Carnage qualifier match, marking his return to singles action after a recent tag-team championship run with Christian Cage. The 52-year-old Copeland admitted that his wrestling days are numbered after saying, \"My face isn't on teenagers' walls anymore. I'm aging out, and that's OK.\" He revealed that Cage broke three ribs and suffered a collapsed lung in a three-way ladder match at All Out 2026, which could sideline Cage permanently. Copeland expressed his admiration for Cage's unwavering work ethic and wished him a speedy recovery. The two have been wrestling royalty together, and Copeland intends to add another world title to his collection at this Saturday's Clockwork Carnage match.",
