It also marked his 25th anniversary in WWE. Recently, WWE Hall of Famer, Kurt Angle, commented on the rumors of Edge allegedly debuting on AEW.

Speaking on his podcast, The Kurt Angle Show via Inside The Ropes, Angle opined that he does not believe Edge will jump the ship from WWE to the Jacksonville-based promotion. The wrestling veteran substantiated his argument by asserting that Edge had been a stalwart WWE guy for the entirety of his wrestling career.

“I think Edge is loyal to WWE. He’s been loyal since day one. Don’t get me wrong, a lot of other wrestlers have crossed over, especially his best friend and kind of brother, Christian, but I just don’t see Edge doing that. I really believe he’s going to be WWE for life,” said the Olympic Gold Medalist. Thus, he strongly believes that Edge will never do business with another company besides WWE.

Speaking on The Kurt Angle Show, the Hall of Famer heaped praise on the Knockouts of Impact Wrestling. He further claimed that the Knockouts of TNA were, in fact, in the vanguard of the women’s revolution, way ahead of WWE, by putting out exceptional storylines and matches.

“Our Knockouts Division was really good, we had a lot of talented girls. The Knockouts, they actually were the frontier of the women’s division getting serious. Even more quicker than WWE did. The Knockouts is when everybody started taking women’s wrestling seriously,” said the wrestling veteran. Some of the most notable names of the TNA Knockouts division include several former WWE superstars, such as Mickie James, Gail Kim, Victoria, Awesome Kong. They are often ascribed to changing people’s perception of women’s wrestling in Impact Wrestling. (H/T Inside The Ropes)
