Edge On His Future Goals

WWE Hall of Famer Edge is going to face Roman Reigns for the WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 37. Daniel Bryan is scheduled for the title match at the event as well.

Edge shocked the world after he returned from a career-threatening injury last year at the Royal Rumble during the Royal Rumble match. He has proved to the world that he is not here to sell his name only, he is here to wrestle full time. His performance at this year’s Royal Rumble match was pretty praiseworthy as well.

He entered no 1 and won the whole thing. Edge is only the third man ever to win the Royal Rumble match after entering first. Shawn Michaels won it as a no. 1 entrant before anyone in 1995, and Chris Benoit won it in 2004.

Fans are really looking forward to his title match at WrestleMania. With Daniel Bryan’s addition, it has become even more interesting. Recently, he was featured as the very first guest on Ryan Satin’s Out Of Character podcast where the Rated R Superstar spoke about his career goals right now and other things. Given below are some highlights;

How his goal during this run is to tell simple stories in the ring:

I think more than anything in what I want to tell by coming back, is simple stories. ‘OK, this guy is in the twilight of his career so an elbow to the ribs from a cross-faced chicken wing, you catch somebody in the right spot. It can drop you. So to me, why not try and tell a story that everyone can understand? And that was really the story of the match [against Jey Uso]. He went after my ribs and I went after his shoulder and that was it, but it was a lot of fun, it really was.

How every match could potentially be his last:

I think that’s really what this whole run of Edge boils down to is, just not trying to [give] any kind of false misconceptions of what this is. I know what this is. Every time you see me in there, it could be the last time you see me in there, and I know that and I also know what I went through to get back to do this, and it wasn’t easy. The prep for each match is not easy and the fallout from each match is not easy, I’m not going to lie about that, it’s true.

Edge is rumored to continue his feud for the Universal Championship against Roman Reigns even after WrestleMania 37. It will be interesting to see how he manages things up at this stage of his career.
