Edge had his illustrious career cut short after suffering a series of back injuries in his career. Suffering from spinal stenosis, Edge was told in 2011 that he would never be able to compete again.
If he did, he risked permanent paralysis in the lower half of his body or even death. The former WWE Champion left the ring after a teary farewell speech, thanking fans for the final time. He was subsequently forced to relinquish his newly won World Heavyweight Championship.
Edge made an emphatic return at the Royal Rumble in 2020
Everyone believed Edge was long gone until his music hit at Royal Rumble 2020. The “You think you know me” got one of the biggest crowd pops in WWE history.
Fans could not believe their eyes and rejoiced as their favorite star came running out. Needless to say, Edge went on to Spear everyone in the ring.
The Hall of Famer quickly ignited a feud against Randy Orton and fought his former best friend in two of the most brutal matches of the year. Edge managed to pull off a hard-won victory at WrestleMania but was humbled by ‘The Legend Killer’ at Backlash.
