Update On Edge’s WWE Status

So that’s where he went. Last year, Edge made a stunning return to the ring in the 2020 Royal Rumble. The match was Edge’s first in nearly nine years and started him on a path back to the main event of WrestleMania earlier this year. Edge lost in his Universal Title match against Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan, but has not been seen since. So just where has he been?

According to Fightful Select’s Backstage Report podcast, Edge has been away due to scheduled time off and is not suffering from any injuries. Edge is scheduled to wrestle five times a year for WWE while making limited appearances. So far this year, Edge four times, including winning the Royal Rumble, a match each on Monday Night Raw and SmackDown, plus WrestleMania 37. There is no word on when he will appear or wrestle again.

Edge has done pretty well this year. Check out how he has been doing so far:

Edge vs. Randy Orton: Raw, Feb. 1, 2021

Edge vs. Jey Uso: SmackDown, March 19, 2021

Opinion: I’m not sure what is next for Edge, but it did seem that he had run through a lot of appearances in the first part of the year. I don’t think the five matches a year is a firm cap, as there is a chance that he could wind up wrestling more than that, which would almost have to be the case at this point. A match at Summerslam would not surprise me, though it might be even later than that.

What do you think of Edge’s run this year? When will he wrestle again? Let us know in the comments below.
