More than two decades after releasing his first memoir, Adam Copeland is reportedly working on a follow-up.

First reported Wednesday by PWInsider Elite, their “publishing world” sources indicated the book will be released in October 2026 by HarperCollins. No other details were provided.

Copeland is currently with AEW, but hasn’t appeared on TV since right after September’s All Out, written off in storyline following Beth Copeland taking a spike piledriver from FTR. He has been working on acting roles like the second season of Percy Jackson & The Olympians that debuted last month in addition to a role in The Beekeeper 2 movie.

It would be Copeland’s second book with his first — Adam Copeland on Edge — coming out in 2004 from Simon & Schuster.

The 52-year-old has strongly hinted at his in-ring days coming to an end, saying in January 2024 that he was looking at “a two-year window.” That was before he missed a significant portion of the year with a fractured leg suffered during a cage match against Malakai Black at May 2024’s Double or Nothing.
