Retired wrestler Edge recently took the time to reflect on his career, retirement and plans for the future. In a candid interview, he discussed his wrestling journey, letting go of wrestling and what he hopes to accomplish in the upcoming WrestleMania 39 matchups.

Retirement was a choice taken out of Edge’s hands

Retiring from wrestling was a decision that Edge did not take lightly. However, he reveals that the choice was taken out of his hands due to a neck injury. This initial decision made it easier for him to come to terms with retiring from wrestling.

Coming to terms with no longer pursuing wrestling

Edge had to grapple with the fact that he could no longer pursue wrestling anymore. At the time of his retirement, he didn’t have other plans or a family. In order to cope with the pain of giving up something he loved so much, Edge consciously distanced himself from wrestling after retiring.

Edge certainly has some “pretty extra stupid ideas” for his upcoming Hell in a Cell match with Finn Balor. Fans can hardly wait to see what these ideas entail.

With upcoming matches against Finn Balor and potential future matchups against Sheamus and Drew McIntyre as well as others on his list of desired opponents, there is no shortage of excitement in store for Edge fans.
