WWE Hall of Famer Edge is set to face off with Sheamus in singles action for the first time on this week’s SmackDown show in Toronto.
After the match was announced, with it also taking place in Toronto, it was rumoured that the match could be Edge’s last, per his trainer.
Edge previously mentioned wanting to retire in Toronto at the end of his current contract, which the upcoming match with Sheamus is said to be.
Speaking to ET Canada, Edge said that his match on this week’s SmackDown is the last on his current contract.
He said:
“Here’s what I can honestly say, and this isn’t the answer everyone wants. I truly don’t know. I really really, with 100% truth can say I don’t know. That’s strange for me, but I don’t. I really don’t. I’ve put some thought into it, but not a lot. This is the last match on my current contract. I don’t know. I honestly don’t know. I probably won’t know until I get to the locker room that night and decompress, let all the anxiety and tension that I never used to have before I performed, I have now. That’s strange for me and makes it that much harder to do this.
“I’m going to be 50 in October. It’s not easy anymore. Before, what I used to take for granted to be able to do, now, there is a process and a fallout. There’s a lot. It’s the dream gig, but it’s getting really hard.”
