The roller-coaster ride of the most intrigue storyline around this year’s Wrestlemania continues through this upcoming edition of WWE Raw. As confirmed by WWE, the much-anticipated return of the Hall of Famer Edge is happening on the show.

In an update on the official website as well as on WWE’s social media, it was confirmed that the 11-time world champion is coming back to RAW this coming Monday at the Capital One Arena in Washington, DC.

The update of Edge showing up on the March 9th episode was spoiled by the host arena, much earlier. But then the advertisements were updated last week as he was removed from their listing. This happened after Randy Orton attacked Edge’s wife, WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix, on this week’s WWE RAW episode. This led to speculations on whether the Rated R Superstar was taken off the show.

But, before Smackdown went on air, WWE announced that Edge will be returning to deal with Orton,

“In the wake of Orton’s latest strike, The Rated-R Superstar will return to Raw once again this Monday, and there will be plenty to address. From The Apex Predator’s recent attacks to the status of his wife to Orton’s brazen claim that he injured Edge to save him from himself, it will be a night of many revelations from a man whose unbelievable career continues to evolve in unexpected ways.”

Edge returned on WWE Raw on the January 27th episode to announce that he will be seen in action, moving forward as doctors finally cleared him to compete. But his hopes of featuring in competitions were shattered followed by a vicious Con-Chair-To delivered by Randy Orton.

Since then, Orton turned completely obnoxious who hunted down Matt Hardy with the same move. Also, Beth Phoenix was attacked with an RKO, this week which was uncalled for.

So the expectation is that Edge will be addressing his own health update as well as his wife’s. Plus, there have to be some consequences to Orton’s malice attacks, as of late. It’s pretty much guaranteed that these two veterans will lock horns at the grandest stage of them all. The match should be confirmed with Edge’s return on WWE Raw during the post-Elimination Chamber episode.
