Edge Possible Spoilers

[jasonvoorhees]

I think if Edge goes to Smackdown! Edge will be the one that hit Eddie and Angle, because he wanted to get his revenge on Angle.
If he goes to Raw it will be Benoit that hit Edge on No Way Out 2003 so they will start a feud, then its going to be Edge Vs Benoit for the World Heavyweight Champion.
Thats what I think.

[Rock Bottom]

I think the first part is a good possiblity. But the second part, no way. Edge won't be seeing a title run anytime soon. Possibly, never.

I don't see where you're coming from. Edge was pretty much next in line for a title program on the Smackdown side of things when he got injured, there's no reason for him not to get it soon after his return.

[Rock Bottom]

I was moreso referring to the RAW title theory. Edge is not going to cut the mustard.

[The Icon of Elisim]

Woudln't it make more sense if Angle took out Eddie and faked an injury to screw over Eddie thus setting up a fued for Wrestlemania?

[Kane Knight]

How is this even remotely possibly a spoiler?

I don't know about mustard, but the only thing that seems to debunk the RAW title theory is that it in no way involves HHH.

[The CyNick]

that seems to make sense to me, and thats what is likely going to happen

As for Edge, I heard somewhere (not that credible a source mind you) that HHH might be looking to get him on RAW so they can fued. I could see that, but that would be bad for Edge, because you gotta know Hunter is going to be looking for someone to put him over post-Mania/Backlash if he's dropping the title. An Edge-Orton program would be interesting however, but I think Edge is looking to jump to the ME scene (not sure the fans are ready for that though).

I really think Edge needs to come back as a heel quiet Sting-esque type character on SD. My thinking is that SD is in need of some heels. You got Brock, Show and Kurt (who should switch sides pretty soon), but aside from that the cupboard is kinda bare. If Eddie is going to walk away with the title post-Mania he could use a new opponent (he will have already wrestled both Kurt and Brock in a 1 month span), and Edge and Eddie have had great matches in the past.

The other advantage of bringing in Edge as a mysterious type character is that it would give Taker a new fued immediately following Mania. I dont know if the Deadman gimmick will stay hot past Mania, but if it does, they need someone for Taker to work. I'm thinking he faces Big Show first, just to get another win, and then works a 3 month program with Edge.

Edge's motivation could be that his injury kept him out of two Manias and Taker is the King of Wrestlemania (I mean he's undefeated) and he wants to take out Taker because of it. Then, if the Deadman character starts to fade in popularity (which it almost surely will) Edge could ultimately go over in the fued and kinda take over as the new evil character in the WWE. Taker could then take some more time off and come back as Biker Taker, which he apparently prefers anyway.

After that Edge would be ready for a fued with Eddie for the WWE title.

If Edge comes to SD as a face I dont see much for him to do. Cena, Eddie and Taker are all more over than him. In terms of fueds, you got Kurt and Brock, but they'll likely be involved with Cena and Eddie for a while, so I see Edge being left out.

Cant really go to RAW as a heel cuz he'll get burried by Evolution.

[Corkscrewed]

Cynic, you say SD! doesn't have any heels, but really, after WM, if all goes according to plan, SD will only have one main event face and three heels. Chances are that Cena should join Eddie as (technically) a main eventer, but Edge as a face would balance it out.

Just a thought.

[Innovator]

Edge would be better off as the brooding silent guy he was when he first debuted

[Dave Youell]

Edge would be better off as the brooding silent guy he was when he first debuted
:y:

I like the idea of him coming back kinda like crow sting, but not in a blantent rip off, i don't know what exactlly jusr something else

[Rock Bottom]

I still don't buy Edge being main event... He is like... Not really all that great in any way. Nothing about him really seems to stand out.

Edge vs. Triple H - laughable
Edge vs. The Rock - laughable
Edge vs. Undertaker - laughable
Edge vs. Lesnar - laughable
Edge vs. Goldberg - laughable
Edge vs. Angle - maybe
Edge vs. Benoit - maybe
Edge vs. Cena - maybe
Edge vs. Kane - maybe

Gonna stop here because I'm not going to list every wrestler, but those are just some of the names.

I see Edge about on the RVD/Booker T level. He is good and all, and I like him, but I really doubt he is going to have people standing up from their seats on a regular basis outside of gimmick matches that involve him jumping off of eighteen story buildings. Or get PPV purchases. With the established positions a lot of people have, (mind you, some are inactive, but I mean in the long haul) there won't be enough room for Edge IMO. Even if he were to climb the ladder, and even become the biggest face... One steady run of The Rock or someone along those lines would make people forget Edge. I don't think he has the longevity.

[Mister Sinister]

I think the first part is a good possiblity. But the second part, no way. Edge won't be seeing a title run anytime soon. Possibly, never.

Well They did let Bob Holly come back and fued for the Title so you never know :roll:

[Rock Bottom]

Yeah, but now Holly is back in midcard, and is getting very stale very quickly. He's decaying. Edge isn't ready for the main event. I wouldn't be TOTALLY surprised, if Edge were to get a title run, but I guarantee it would be minimal. And he'd be back to the midcard in no time. Edge is not going to live up to some of the faces and heels out there today.

Yeah, I'll Admit Edge isn't ready for the Main Event, Of course, You can bet when he comes back, the place will go nuts, since he was one of the most popular stars on Smackdown, But more then likely, Like RVD, Booker T and Jericho, They're be kept at the Upper Mid Card until the day, God Answers my prays and strikes HHH down

[Rock Bottom]

LoL, well put.

[Loose Cannon]

Nah, I can actually see Edge as a main event player in a couple of months. He's got great mic skills and he's got the look. Now it's just a matter of character. Do you, as Cynick, said turn him heel and make him the mysterious enigma type character? Or do you turn him heel and make him a Hollywood Blonde type of character? Or do you let him be babyface and just let him assume the role he had before he went down? But I can definately picture Edge with the World Title around his waist down the road.

Yeah, I definatly see him with it around his waist too, But it would have to be on Smackdown, Since we're only allowed one other person a year besides Trips to hold the World Heavyweight Title and it seems Beniot is getting that honor...

[Kane Knight]

I still don't buy Edge being main event... He is like... Not really all that great in any way. Nothing about him really seems to stand out.

The guy's incredibly charismatic. It's a good part of what got him over (that and being, you know, a pritti boi).

He's not exactly the world's greatest wrestler, but pro wrestling is equal parts ring ability and mic ability. when someone has both in spades, great. Most people don't, however.

[Mikey]

I think Edge will be a main event player very soon

[AareDub]

Here's that same list in my opinion...

Edge vs. Triple H - laughable
Edge vs. The Rock - maybe (if the Rock was still around)
Edge vs. Undertaker - they could make it work, but I don't want to see it
Edge vs. Lesnar - as long as edge doesn't win
Edge vs. Goldberg - don't have to worry about that
Edge vs. Angle - awesome
Edge vs. Benoit - pretty good
Edge vs. Cena - great
Edge vs. Kane - nah

So yea, I think he could be a good main eventer as long as he has the right opponents. He should get involved with some US title feuds or something for a little while. Then towards the end of the year he should move up to the main event scene to face somebody like Angle.

[Rock Bottom]

I guess maybe with the whole roster split. But if you put him anywhere near the biggest names in the WWE, I think he is gonna shrink quickly.

You're all making excellent and logical points, alot more logical than mine, so don't get me wrong when I disagree... Personally I like the guy. I just don't really feel it when I see him though, I don't see him headlining much.

[Rock Bottom]

There have been tons of wrestlers to take the fans by force though, so time will tell.

[Loose Cannon]

Yeah, you know what, I think he's going to have to be a heel on Smackdown because it would work out better that way. First, if he goes to Raw, that's instant buried. HHH and Evolution run the show as heels there. This is what's happening to Hardy right now on Raw. Great gimmick, great talent, great mic work, not a member of Evolution. So he's held back. I'd rather see Edge with a Hollywood Blonde type of gimmick then the darker character. Maybe save that character for O'Haire if he ever returns. But yeah, Edge as a heel could have a feud with Cena for the U.S. title, he could feud with Eddie, and......hmmmm not a lot of top babyfaces on Smackdown is there, or maybe I'm just drawing a blank.

[The Icon of Elisim]

The only way that I could buy Edge in the main event scene was if he was a bit bigger.

I couldn't buy him being a serious threat to someone like Lesnar in a fued

[Kristanna Vola]

Edge being a main eventer just doesn't fit IMO. Ah well maybe he'll prove me wrong. Time will tell.

[MVP]

If Edge comes back to Smackdown, he needs to be a heel, mainly because of the incredibly high strength in faces on Smackdown.

If Edge comes back to RAW and does a program with Triple H, then he better be a damn good babyface, because if Edge is getting pushed to high heaven on RAW as a face, and Jericho is still bieng buried then he's going to lose some support.

[Kane Knight]

As stupid as it is, they do tend to push everyone coming back from an injury...

I mean, we have Bob Fu</>ckin' Holly main eventing...:wtf:

So Edge'll get pushed to the moon, as is usual.

It could be worse...It could be a Justin Bradshaw title reign...

[MVP]

Yeah I won't complain about Edge too much, especially if Triple H miraculously jobs to him.

Hey it's got to be someone right?

[xGuiltyFatex]

As long as they don't bring him back with that tired gimick and old annoying Rob Zombie song.

[Boondock Saint]

What was his gimmick really? He wasn't really gothic anymore. He wasn't the asshole heel he was in 2000. He was just sorta this cool..surfer-esque guy I guess?

[Bad Guy]

Edge and Christian. That way it slowly brings Edge back into the game and also raises Christian's popularity. But that would ruin the 3some angle going on right now with Jericho Trish and Christian.

[parkmania]

What if...

He comes to RAW after the Evolution split and sides WITH HHH? After all, Maven was rumored to be joining up with Trips, but he's injured.

[blake639raw]

What if...

He comes to RAW after the Evolution split and sides WITH HHH? After all, Maven was rumored to be joining up with Trips, but he's injured. That's a terrible idea. That would do nothing but make him HHH's bitch.

[the_rock's_#1_fan]

As long as they don't bring him back with that tired gimick and old annoying Rob Zombie song.

I'm sorry, but I take offense at the comment about Edge's Rob Zombie theme is "old" and "annoying" :foc: --that couldn't be farther from the truth, and he SHOULD have that music still come approximately March 11th of this year (he's been cleared to wrestle again on March 10th, but with the SD! show being taped on March 9th, I don't think it'll be any big deal to let him do the show a whole 1 DAY early...even so he may not be back till 4 days after WMXX, March 18th SD! ep.), and I think Edge should try to go for another Tag Title Run--the last 2 times he had the Tag Team gold was July 4, 2002 with Hulk Hogan, and again on November 7, 2002 with Rey Mysterio, and he makes a great tag team champ. :cool:

[The CyNick]

Just a thought.

What about Taker?

And then you have Mysterio, who seems to be getting a larger push lately as a main event guy, even though he's a CW.

Looks like he's going to RAW to be fed to Hunter, which is sad.

Why are you taking offense? did you write the music?

[Mister Sinister]

Why are you taking offense? did you write the music?

I Guess it could be considered old, But it's still a great song never the less...But I do see Edge for some reason getting a new theme upon his return

[xGuiltyFatex]

I'm a metal-head and me and my buddy are in a metal band and we write metal songs so to me that Rob Zombie song is terrible. Sorry if i offend anyone but IMO the song completly reeks of suckyness.

I'm a drummer in a metal band as well, and I'm not saying the Lyrics are good, but however it's catchy and has a good sound to it, Of course, it's nowhere near Zombies best work
