Edge has not wrestled since WrestleMania 37, but wrestling fans can expect him back in the ring this summer.
WWE is going back on the road in just a matter of weeks. The company recently announced SummerSlam will take place from the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, a venue that holds over 70,000 people. There are plans to makes this a blockbuster affair, with John Cena and other top stars rumored to appear.
Jon Alba of the Living The Gimmick podcast reports that the Rated R Superstar is scheduled to compete at SummerSlam. Edge will be returning as a babyface and competing in a SmackDown brand match. No word yet on his opponent, but potential matchups for Edge include Seth Rollins, Sami Zayn and King Corbin.
WWE is advertising Edge for the September 3rd edition of SmackDown, which adds credence to Alba’s scoop.
Edge was last seen feuding with the universal champion Roman Reigns on WWE programming and he challenged for the universal championship at WrestleMania 37.
The former champion had won the Royal Rumble 2021 in January and chose Reigns as his opponent for the Show Of Shows. However, Daniel Bryan was later added to this bout as well, making it a triple threat.
The tribal chief managed to retain his title in this match with an assist from Jey Uso. Edge has taken some time off from WWE programming after that. WWE will return to touring with the July 16 episode of SmackDown from Houston. SummerSlam this year will be taking place from the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on August 21.
