Edge Returns Tonight On Raw, Will Confront Randy Orton
On January 27th, the night after the Royal Rumble where Edge made a shock return and had a lengthy stay in the match itself, the Rated R Superstar appeared on Monday Night Raw to address the stunned populace. There, in front of an electric crowd, he told an impassioned speech about what it took to get cleared again and why it meant so much to him that he had to try. He told us about his grit and his will. And then, came Randy Orton. He welcomed him back, spoke briefly about how important Edge was to him and even insinuated a possible reunion for Rated RKO.
And then… he dropped him with an RKO. Swiftly after, things got ugly. He grabbed a chair and made like he was going to Pillmanize his neck, only to think better of it – before grabbing a second chair and delivering his own signature Conchairto to him. A violent assault on a man that just reminded us of how bad the condition of his neck was and how long it took him to just now climb back from that injury. Immediately, Randy Orton became relevant again and made a real pariah out of himself.
He was hated on his every appearance, whilst destroying Matt Hardy and ending his WWE career in the process. Ironically the heat lasted up until what was really meant to be his most dastardly moment yet, giving a gaslighting speech explaining in his own twisted way he did what he did for the good of Edge and his family, and RKO’ing Edge’s wife Beth Phoenix. That was the impetus for Edge to make his grand return tonight, where he will no doubt atleast try to get some revenge on Orton.
