The 2021 Royal Rumble Winner Edge recently had an interview on The Steve Dangle Podcast and asked about whom he wants to face when he was out of action. Then, Edge first named Roman Reigns and had a huge praise for him.
“For years I’ve been saying, especially when Jay (Christian) and I had our podcast, he (Roman Reigns) was getting all kinds of flak and I never understood it because I know how talented that guy is and I could see the guy that was in there that just kinda wasn’t allowed to come out character wise. So he was a guy that I always saw and I was like ‘Man, what I could do with that guy’.”
The WWE Hall of Famer Edge also named Cesaro, Seth Rollins and AJ Styles as other superstars he also like to face.
After winning the 2021 Royal Rumble match, Edge appeared on fallout episode of SmackDown and had segment with Universal Champion Roman Reigns, which was ended with Kevin Owens hitting Stunner to the Head of the Table.
