Edge has been one of the biggest WWE stars for decades now, but he confirmed that he wrestled the last match of his WWE contract when he faced off against Sheamus in Toronto in August. The Rated R Superstar also confirmed that his WWE contract would be expiring in September which has led to a lot of speculation about his future.
It’s been rumored that Edge could be making the jump to AEW, but at this point that has yet to be confirmed. Chris Jericho recently talked about the possibility of Edge joining AEW on Superstar Crossover, and he pointed out how there’s not much more for Edge to do in WWE.
“Well, I mean, who’s to say for sure? But if you look at Chris Jericho, for example, where I was in WWE, there really wasn’t much more that I could do there. You’re there for for many years, and you’ve wrestled everybody, and it’s great. But it’s always good to shock people, and to show up with a new kind of mission.”
“So I think somebody like Edge, you know, there’s a lot of guys over [in WWE] like this. They’ve kind of done everything they can do there. For him to come to AEW with a whole fresh new coat of paint, a whole new roster of matches that he can have, obviously a new name, which would then, knowing him, knowing me, what I would do is a whole new look—a whole new mindset. That’s the best thing about having AEW and about us being as successful as we are, is that there’s now a viable alternative, I don’t wanna say, competitor, because it’s not that, but you can now go to either company.”
