Could this be a huge clue that one WWE star and professional wrestling legend is close to retiring from the company?
Last August after a live taping of WWE Raw in his hometown of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Edge teased that the next time he was in front of the city, he thought it could be his last.
At the time, Edge said:
“30 years ago, 30 years ago, July 1st, 1992, I had my first wrestling match as Adam Copeland. I knew one day, I’d be standing right here in front of you, I just knew it. What I didn’t dream of is that I would have to retire for nine years and fight, fight with every fiber of my being to get this back.
“All of you are the reason for that. This is a reciprocal relationship. I just went toe-to-toe with one of the best talents and the future of this industry in Damian Priest. I can’t wait to do it some more.
“I can’t wait to hopefully come back one last time, one last time here in Toronto. I’m looking at the calendar, we usually come here in August. So next August, I plan on seeing each and every one of you, and in a perfect world, we’ll all say goodbye to each other that night.
“Hey, that’s okay, man. This is the place for me to do it. I mean this when I say it — I love all of you. In case you missed it, I love being Canadian.”
Now could Edge’s foreshadowing be coming true?
Just announced by ScotiaBank Arena in Toronto, a very special appearance for their upcoming August date for WWE SmackDown.
Toronto’s own Edge will be planned to appear for the night’s big event on Friday, August 18.
While Edge has continued to tease the prospect of retiring from WWE, could this upcoming August date in Toronto be his last match?
