He wrestled on the independent scene in feds such as SSW and CWF under the name of Sexton Hardcastle. He was a loud mouth who did a cheezy dance but he backed it up in the ring. He even was apart of a tag team with Christan Cage in SSW and they were known as "High Impact. But in 1998 Adam got the biggest break of his career as he entered the WWF Training camp among other future superstars such as Sean Morely(Val Venis), Shawn Stasiak, Mike Hollow, Darren Drozdov, and Rodney Blackbeard, also on hand at the camp were some WWF Superstars sharpening their skills some were Ahmed Johnson, Kurrgan, Steve Blackman, Mark Henry, and Tiger Ali Singh. Adam's trainers at the WWF Camp were Pat Patterson, Tom Prichard and Dory Dunk Jr. Pat, Funk and Tom all had GREAT things to say about Adam. Then in April/May of 98 Adam began wrestling dark matches at Raw and had promos for his debut, he was now known as Edge. Then on June 22, 1998 he made his wwf tv wrestling debut against Jose Estrada Jr. He did a moonsault over the top and injuried Jose but still he was quite impressive. He has since been seen on RAWs standing in the crowd. Edge has possible the brightest future in the WWF and one day he will most certainly be a Superstar! Edge's WWF Contract is for 5 years Here are a few tidbits that I have recieved from a great site which you can visit here -Got started in wrestling by winning an essay contest in a local newspaper on why he wanted to be a pro wrestler. His prize was free training by Sweet Daddy Siki. -Wrestled in Michigan and Canadian independents as Sexton Hardcastle where he feuded and then teamed with Joe E. Legend to form the team of Sex & Violence and was sometimes managed by "Handsome" Johnny Bradford. -Wrestled his first WWF house show late last year in Canada as Hardcastle and caught the eye of WWF officials. -Wrestled in many house shows and RAW dark matches as Adam Copeland months before WrestleMania XIV.
