Edge Says Current WWE Star Is The Modern Day Rated R Superstar

Edge has made quite the name for himself throughout his career and he accomplished more than enough to earn a Hall of Fame induction. The former WWE Champion came out of retirement in 2020, and since then Seth Rollins has gone on to become one of his greatest rivals.

During a recent episode of the After The Bell podcast Edge praised Seth Rollins in a big way, and he also drew some comparisons between Rollins and himself.

“I mean, I think Seth Rollins is a guy that we’ll never fully be through with each other. And I think part of the reason it’s because we’re so damn similar. We look at things in a very similar way. You know, he’s carved his own path, just don’t take this comment, and I’m sure they’ll clickbait it and run with it. But to me if I look at it, and if I make the comparisons to rosters of yesteryear, like he is the Rated-R Superstar of now, he is firmly his own thing, don’t get me wrong, he’s carved his own path.

But if you are trying to draw comparisons to previous generations, which always seems to be the case, he’s in that ballpark anyway. And to me, he’s also quite possibly the most entertaining thing on our shows, and that’s been for a long time. He brings it no matter how tired, no matter how beat up, no matter how sore and he’s a workhorse but he’s a workhorse that has so many layers.

I just you know, to be honest anytime I can get in there with him I know what it feels like we both know what feels like the minute we touched I was like ‘Ooh okay, all right, we got something here. So hell yeah, I mean I do that in a heartbeat,’ you know, we had a trilogy that doesn’t mean can’t be more.”
