WWE Hall of Famer Beth Phoenix recently stated that she had to remain at home when Edge was hurt, her kids could not go to school and her mother also had poor health during the time.
But this is not the time when Edge picked up his career threatening injury which force him to retire from Professional wrestling. It was his latest injury that he picked up last year during his match against Randy Orton at the Backlash pay per view event of WWE.
Beth Phoenix On Her Family Life While Edge Was Injured
The match indeed was amazing and it was being addressed as the world’s greatest wrestling match. It was also the main event of the night and the match was book for around 45 minutes which is quite unbelievable.
Edge made his return earlier this year and he entered the Royal Rumble match as the no. 1 entrant and won the match. He then went on to challenge Roman Reigns for the WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 37 along with Daniel Bryan. Right now he is involved in a feud with Seth Rollins.
Beth Phoenix who is a WWE Hall of Famer recently appeared as a guest on Renee Paquette’s Oral Sessions podcast where she stated that she had to remain at home when Edge was hurt, her kids could not go to school and her mother also had poor health during the time. She said;
“It was a village of people. Over the summer, Adam [Edge] had the World’s Greatest Wrestling Match [Backlash 2020 bout against Randy Orton] and my mom has a heart condition, she has a triple bypass and is like mega high risk.
“The pandemic happens, the news is saying the world is ending and we’re like ‘what is going on?’ I think they were working and talking to all talent and (asking) who is comfortable doing what. In my situation, I was like, ‘I’m stuck guys.’ Adam is hurt, he just had surgery.
“My kids aren’t in school, they are remote schooling, and I can’t get COVID because my mom lives alone and I help her. I was in a situation where maybe I had to quit. I said to them, ‘If you have to replace me, I completely understand, but I’m stuck. I have to take care of my husband. He needs my help, my kids need me, and my mom needs me.’”
