“That Was Rated-R for Graphic Violence”: Wrestling Fans Rejoice as Edge Turns Heel for the First Time in Over a Decade

It’s official now; ‘The Rated-R Superstar’ Edge will face ‘The Phenomenal’ AJ Styles at WrestleMania. Edge appeared on the last week’s episode of Monday Night Raw to give an open challenge to wrestlers for The Biggest Show of the year.

During his last week’s promo, Edge dropped major hints about who he wanted to face at WrestleMania 38. The rumors were flying all week long that AJ Styles was the man who would face the WWE Hall of Famer.

The Rated-R Superstar slammed this week’s Raw episode by wanting someone to accept his WrestleMania 38 challenge. When the lights went off, the music blared out and AJ Styles emerged.

Both Edge and AJ Styles admitted they had wanted this match for a long time. However, Rated-R Superstar then fired insults at Styles by mentioning that he wished to face the old “bulldog” version of Styles that was a World Champion and not the “tag-team b**tch” that functioned with Omos last year. 

The drama lasted until Edge turned heel! Edge then hammered Styles with a cheap shot as a brawl broke out between the two. When ‘The Phenomenal One’ tried to fight back his way back, Edge cut him off with a low blow.

In addition, Edge later grounded Styles and pounded punches on his face. Finally, the ‘Rated-R Superstar’ snapped and delivered two Con-Chair-To on AJ Styles’ skull.

The WWE Universe was shocked to see the WWE Hall of Famer turn heel when Styles accepted his WrestleMania 38 challenge.

The Rated-R Superstar laying Con-Chair-To’s twice on Styles was a callback from 2020 where The Viper Randy Orton hit Edge with the same move.
