An update on our earlier story on Adam "Edge" Copeland.

While Copeland was removed from the WWE internal roster, PWInsider.com is told that he has since been added back, but not as an active TV performer.

Copeland is no longer listed internally on either the Raw or Smackdown roster.  

Instead, we are told is now listed in what was described as a "miscellaneous" talent list for personalities signed but not working actively on either TV series.  Others included on that list currently would be Steve Austin, Big E, Undertaker, Titus O'Neill and Braun Strowman, among others, all talents who are connected to the company, but not actively performing or are injured.

WWE Hall of Famer Adam "Edge" Copeland has been removed from WWE's internal roster, PWInsider.com has learned.

There is a belief in certain circles that he may be AEW-bound.

Edge is still listed on WWE.com's roster but internally is no longer listed as an active performer for the company.  He wrestled what was publicly discussed as the last match on his WWE contract in August against Sheamus on Smackdown in Copeland's hometown of Toronto but had since blown off the idea that he was leaving the company, citing that he had a new contract extension waiting for him if he chose to sign it.

So, stay tuned.
