Recently, one of the most famous professional wrestlers, Edge, appeared on an episode of the “Impaulsive” podcast hosted by Logan Paul. In the podcast, Edge made some interesting remarks about his retirement plans. He stated that he does not intend to stay in the wrestling industry for a long time.
Edge’s real name is Adam Copeland. He is considered one of the best wrestling figures in this industry. Edge first came into the limelight in the 1990s. He was part of a team, The Brood, before going solo and winning multiple world championships.
During his appearance on “Impaulsive podcast,” Edge discussed the toll that wrestling takes on the body, stating that it is not a sustainable career in the long term. Edge told Logan Paul that it’s very important to know when to leave this industry. “I don’t want to stick around to the point where it’s like, ‘Oh, there he is,” Edge said. Further, he added, “You know, ‘Oh, okay.’ We’ll give him the courtesy cheer. I don’t want to get there.”
Edge’s comments are a reminder of the physical demands of professional wrestling, and the toll that it takes on the body. The industry has been plagued by stories of wrestlers suffering from serious injuries and long-term health problems. It often comes as a result of the physical toll that the wrestlers’ bodies undergo.
His retirement plans are ideal for most wrestlers. The WWE Hall of Famer understands the importance of stepping away at the right time. No doubt, Edge’s retirement from wrestling will shatter WWE fans to their core. Moreover, he is 49 years, the right time to take care of his health and well-being.
Edge’s return to WWE
Edge’s surprise return in the 2020 Royal Rumble was a dream come true for many WWE fans. He had to retire in 2011 due to a major neck injury. His return to pro wrestling symbolizes his love for this sport and determination to achieve the immeasurable.
Besides, WWE fans gave him a huge cheer on his return. Edge became emotional and excited during his entrance. His appearance in Royal Rumble is chronicled in WWE history as one of the best returns.
Despite his long absence from the ring, Edge showed that he had lost none of his skill or charisma. He quickly regained the position of a top star in the WWE once again, and his matches were among the most highly anticipated on any given card.
It’s highly impressive that Edge was still able to return to wrestling after a serious neck injury. However, neck injuries are something very common for wrestlers. It is one of the major reasons wrestlers leave the pro wrestling industry.
