Edge Believed He Could Main Event a WWE WrestleMania Again After Career-Threatening Injury

WWE Hall of Famer Edge is loving his return to WWE. The Rated R Superstar returned to WWE in 2020, but won the Royal Rumble the following year to headline WrestleMania 37. Edge was forced to retire back in 2011 due to what was thought to be a career-ending injury. WWE fans were extremely despondent at seeing one of their favorite superstars retire at an early age.

However, Edge stayed sharp and worked his way out of the injury to come back and main event WrestleMania. In a recent interview, Edge reveals that whether he ever believed that he would main event WrestleMania.

Edge replied he believed in himself to be in the main event of WrestleMania one day. He also added how important it is to clear away the barriers that stop someone away from their dream.

Edge added- “You know in my mind, yeah. I think I had to have that belief. You know, honestly, everyone who is getting into this sh*t should have this belief. You also need some self-awareness and understand that there might be some things put in your path that might make it impossible. So I had that self belief to not accept the answers that I was getting.”

The Rated R superstar is still a vital force for WWE

There are instances where a WWE Hall of Famer would make his return for a match and two and be sidelined after that. However, this is not the case with Edge. The former World Champion has still got it and has proved that he belongs in the ring rather than sitting at home.

Edge, since his return, has faced superstars such as Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, Daniel Bryan, and Seth Rollins. His recent match against Seth Rollins at SummerSlam had it all. The bout featured some great promos and impressive moves in the ring.

Since his return, Edge has been part of the blue brand of WWE. But as per recent reports, The Rated R Superstar is set to switch from SmackDown to WWE Raw. The addition of Brock Lesnar and Becky Lynch to SmackDown has seriously made the brand more dominant. Therefore, rumors suggest Edge will switch to RAW to aid the brand in a well-needed boost in viewership.
