Thank you Edge!

This thread is dedicated to one of the greatest ever, the Rated R Champion:

I... can't believe he left before Undertaker :(

What is your favorite Edge moment? 

What is your favorite Edge moment? Wesrcks13

It's surreal. I won't be able to grasp the fact that he's gone for quite a while.

Since I started watching just three years ago in 2008, Edge was the first heel that I liked. I closely followed his career, bought his DVD set, etc.

Over the past few years, I became less of a fan, but he's still provided MANY notable mark-out moments (his return at Survivor Series 2008, his return at the Royal Rumble) and still puts on great matches from time to time (vs. Jeff at Extreme Rules 2009, vs. Jericho at WM 26 and Extreme Rules 2010).

Edge will be missed.

Have you gotten a chance to see any of the Edge & Christian stuff?Blue_Shield

My personal favorite probably being Hardys vs. E&C at No Mercy in a tag team ladder match.

My favorite Edge moment.

I don't really know why. I was always a fan of the Ultimate Opportunist gimmick he had, and when he came out I just freaked out with excitement. The best part was that all the fans in attendance bought that it was Jeff Hardy. Perfect.

People seem to be forgetting Edge/Foley at Mania 22.Mu5uk0

Sam, you should go out of your way to find Edge and Rey Mysterio vs. Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit, 2 out of 3 Falls match on Smackdown! That was one of my all time favorite matches.KevyR

Damnit, I was the fastest rising superstar on this board. I'm the Brock Lesnar of WWEv.

Favorite match would have to be:

Edge & Christian vs. The Hardy Boys vs. The Dudley Boys in a TLC Match (Summer Slam 2000)

I feel like **** for not watching him on Smackdown for sometime now. I just don't watch Smackdown anymore.

It's been a good run.

Don't let the "omg he's retiring" affect make you think otherwise that Edge hasn't been good at all since returning last year.

He has had some good matches, but nothing better than what has been on Superstars (btw, THE wrestling show).

Probably off the radar, but one of my favorite Edge matches was his match against RVD for the WWE Title at Vengeance 06. I just love that match.

I've often wondered what would have happened to Edge had he not gotten hurt in 2003. I really think he was really close to breaking through as a face and would have made for a great opponent for Brock when he (Brock) inevitably turned heel.

Edge's matches with Angle are pretty underrated.

Edge seems to be one of the last of the dying breed of guys that worked their way up the card. These days, it seems like if the WWE likes you and you're remotely over, they hotshot you to the main event... or bury the **** out of you. One of the main reasons I think people responded to Edge the way they did when he won the belt is that we grew up watching Edge work his way up the card. It created a connection that you can't force. I think me and people like me felt the same way about Bret, in a way.

Speaking of they don't do things like they used to, watch Edge vs Owen from Breakdown 98.

I also give Edge a lot of credit for changing my opinion on John Cena. I think he has to be Cena's best opponent.

Well... now it's Christian's turn... hopefully. I'm hoping he replaces Edge in the main event at Extreme Rules... he's the only top face left on Smackdown, unless Undertaker comes back.

Christian to get the Eddie Guerrero Sympathy title win?

No thanks. Give it to ADR and have them feud until SS.

First time i started watching wrestling was at around the time when wwe bought wcw and when i started watching wrestling thats when i saw edge and christian.

Edge has been one of my favorite wrestlers throughout all of these years and it was really great to watch him perform all of these years from the goofy guy doing the 5 second pose with christian to the sadistic guy who got kicked in the face by shawn michaels at elimination chamber to the guy ive watched the past few months it was alot of fun watching edge.

its been a hell of a ride

Thank You Edge

:cry: why?

That's too bad he's forced to retire due to injury. He's always been a consistent performer. There's not too many negative things you could say about his career. He was right when he said we watched him grow up before our eyes with his gimmick changes and ascension up the ladder to the top.

One moment I'll always remember about Edge occurs on that 3 disc Ladder match DVD. Its a TLC match at Unforgiven in Toronto against Cena, with Edge as the defending champion. During the introductions you can see Edge become visibly emotional. JR even points it out on commentary that here's this guy, in his hometown, as the reigning WWE Champion, and that he's basically realizing his childhood dream at that very moment. I just thought it was a cool thing to see, a sense of reality amongst all the acting. 

one thing that worries me is what will happen once all of the wrestlers i grew up watching decide to call it quitsgamerguy456

Now, who that will be, remains to be seen.

He was my favorite wrestler. He was the main reason I watched Smackdown. Now with Edge gone, what do I have to look forward to?

Anyways, I first saw Edge back when he was with "La Familia" in 2007. I hated him at first, but due to knowing that he works way better as a heel, I loved him. The match with him and Undertaker at Summerslam solified my love for him. A couple of matches seen at Wrestlemania, and the rest is history.

Hulk Hogan, you are a giant piece of s***:

That is the most disgusting thing anyone has ever said. Screw you, Hogan. 

From me:

Who wants to bet that tomorrow he tweets that Kurt Angle's family member said it?

If Hogan listened to his fans he would have retired 15 years ago. 

WWE.com Exclusive: John Cena expresses his feelings about Edge's retirement

http://vids.wwe.com/11743/wwecom-exclusive-john-cena-expre

My Most favorite moment is when he Cashed in the MITB on Cena. :D

Also I loved the Foley Vs. Edge match at WM22.

I think we will see him again in the HOF, and I think he may just become like a Legend in his own right, the Rated R-Superstar, will be truly missed in the WWE, and I think Edge will forever be a great Wrestler but I hope Edge does come back every once in a while just to say Hi. :)

Thank you Edgester. :D

Yeah, damn Edge for actually wanting to function as a human being 5-10 years down the road. :evil: Interesting that he brought up Hennig too since painkillers contributed to his death.
