Edge surprised everyone in early March when he turned heel and adopted a new look and entrance music. His new dark gimmick made him a different person all over. This reminded fans of The Undertaker, but it felt totally different.
As Edge wanted to bring out the best of AJ Styles before their WrestleMania 38 match, he tapped into the darkness. However, it seems like Edge has decided to take this further and has recruited Damien Priest as the first member of his stable.

WWE Universe compares Edge with The Undertaker
There are even comparisons happening between The Undertaker and Edge’s new look. Fans shared their reactions on social media.
Edward suggested the history of the new character. He said, “I wish@WWE @EdgeRatedR would say his darkside was tapped into when he was part of the @undertaker #MinistryOfDarkness, & part of #TheBrood but he stepped away from it. But since he’s been back his thirst for the Darkside returned for vengeance & judgement #WWERaw #RawAfterMania”
