Edge’s Potential AEW WrestleDream Appearance Sparks More Speculation – With the anticipation building for tonight’s AEW WrestleDream, particularly the main event between Darby Allin and Christian Cage, there has been widespread speculation about the potential debut of Edge in the promotion.
Edge’s WWE contract officially expired on Saturday, making him a free agent as of today. This development has fueled rumors of Edge making the leap from WWE to AEW, a move that has been discussed in the wrestling industry for some time.
As far back as mid-August, there were murmurs among AEW talent about Edge potentially joining the promotion, even before his last match with WWE against Sheamus on SmackDown in Toronto. Recently, a veteran within WWE confidently stated that Edge’s move to AEW is a “lock.”
One point of interest is the theme music associated with Edge’s entrance. While WWE owns the rights to “Metalingus,” which has been his iconic theme, there is debate over whether they have exclusive licensing rights to it. It’s possible that the “You think you know me?” sample leading into the music could be re-recorded for a potential appearance in another promotion like AEW. Additionally, WWE no longer owns the rights to the Rob Zombie song, “Never Gonna Stop Me,” which Edge used in the past.
If Edge were to explore other theme options, it’s noted that using songs from the band Alter Bridge, which he has a connection to, could be a possibility.
One major consideration is that WWE owns the rights to the “Edge” name, so if Adam Copeland were to join another promotion, he would likely have to adopt a different wrestling persona or name. This legal aspect adds an intriguing layer to the potential transition.
As wrestling fans eagerly await the outcome, Edge’s potential move to AEW could reshape the landscape of professional wrestling.
