“Seeing Edge and Rey, especially those two, I mean guys that I was in the company with back in 2000, 2005, it was a lot of fun to reminisce about the past and what we were doing that night. I did a really cool funny pre-tape with Edge and Rey Mysterio where Edge got me again with the poster boards on the back that said, ‘You still suck.’ It was a lot of fun. You know, we reenacted that from 2002, 20 years later. It was actually Edge’s idea and it was a great idea.”

Just past week on an edition of The Kurt Angle Show, The Olympic Gold Medalist had revealed details about his match against Rey Mysterio at the 2002 SummerSlam Pay Per View. Kurt Angle said that Rey Mysterio wears knee braces, which are underneath his pants and when he performed the Hurricanrana off the top rope, the knee brace hit him on the top of his head, which got him about 14 stitches. Rey Mysterio wears the braces to protect him from any injury from the high-flying stunts he performs in the ring.

Edge and Rey Mysterio defeated the Judgement Day at Clash at the Castle Live Event, but the ending of the match was a big twist as Dominik Mysterio turned heel and attacked both Mysterio and Edge.
