Two Live Events from WWE Raw and Smackdown brand went through major changes as WWE kicked off their Holiday Tour in 2021. The two shows were respectively scheduled from Madison Square Garden in New York and Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida.
The original main event for the MSG show was scheduled to be Big E vs. Kevin Owens vs. Seth Rollins for the WWE Championship. But Rollins tested positive for COVID-19 and got pulled from the show, as per consequences. WWE also pulled some other Superstars from this show to make sure they’d be safe and ready to perform at the WWE Day 1 PPV on January 1.

This led to a change in the main event of the WWE Raw house show which was converted to Edge vs. Kevin Owens inside a Steel Cage match. Edge was rushed to NYC from his home in Ashville, North Carolina to work this main event match as the top attraction. This was also a dream match for the WWE Universe that they never thought of witnessing, a few years ago.

Dream feud could become a reality on WWE Raw
Obviously, WWE fans now want this match or rather a full-fledged feud to happen between the two. That’s a possibility given that both these superstars are part of the WWE Raw roster. Additionally, Edge himself believes that this was not the last time that the two Canadians have crossed paths.
Taking to his Instagram profile, the Rated-R Superstar issued the following statement about his experience from the WWE Raw MSG Live Event,
“Funny thing happened on my way to Detroit. I ended up in Madison Square Garden in a cage match against Kevin Owens. When I first got word I could wrestle again, this match was on my short list of things to do before I retire (for the last time). Have a feelin we’ll see each other again.”
Following the Live Event at MSG, Edge also served as the main event attraction of the December 27 edition of WWE Raw from the Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan. He interrupted the wedding segment between Miz and Maryse and showered them with the infamous Brood Bath to end the show. This segment helped elevate the feud between Edge and Miz heading into WWE Day 1.
