Edge’s SmackDown Match Is The Last Under Current WWE Contract – During the August 11 episode of WWE SmackDown, a segment involving Edge and Sheamus was featured to set the stage for their match scheduled for tomorrow night.
We noted how Edge’s trainer has indicated that the match against Sheamus might potentially mark Edge’s final wrestling match. Notably, Edge had previously expressed his desire to conclude his wrestling career this year at an event in Toronto, which aligns with the timeline of the upcoming SmackDown episode.
In an update, The R-Rated Superstar provided insights into the much-anticipated match and addressed rumors surrounding his potential retirement during a conversation with ET Canada. While Edge didn’t provide a straightforward answer regarding retirement, he did disclose a significant detail – his upcoming match against Sheamus will mark the final bout on his current WWE contract.
“Here’s what I can honestly say, and this isn’t the answer everyone wants. I truly don’t know. I really really, with 100% truth can say I don’t know. That’s strange for me, but I don’t. I really don’t. I’ve put some thought into it, but not a lot. This is the last match on my current contract.“
Edge says that he now has anxiety when performing and that the “dream gig” isn’t as easy as it used to be now that he is on the doorstep of 50.
“I don’t know. I honestly don’t know. I probably won’t know until I get to the locker room that night and decompress, let all the anxiety and tension that I never used to have before I performed, I have now. That’s strange for me and makes it that much harder to do this. I’m going to be 50 in October. It’s not easy anymore. Before, what I used to take for granted to be able to do, now, there is a process and a fallout. There’s a lot. It’s the dream gig, but it’s getting really hard.”
