12-time Champion says WWE is going overboard with returning Superstars

Hardcore legend and WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently sat down with The Wrestling Inc Daily and discussed a bunch of topics.

Foley touched upon fellow WWE Hall of Famer Edge's return to the company and had some interesting things to say about the same.

He stated that WWE is overdoing returns but hinted that he is okay with the feud between Edge and Randy Orton. The former WWE Champion went as far as saying that Edge vs Orton could be the match of the night at WrestleMania 36.

"I think WWE may be pushing it with the returning Superstars, but Edge and Randy Orton is gonna captivate the audience. We get to see Randy doing what he does best and I think it's gonna challenge for Match of the Night."

WWE is doing all it can to make this WrestleMania a star-studded affair, with the likes of Goldberg, John Cena, and Edge all set to be featured in marquee matches at The Show of Shows.

Goldberg will take on Roman Reigns with the Universal title on the line, while Cena will wrestle The Fiend. The match between Edge and Orton hasn't been made official yet but is bound to be scheduled sometime in the next few weeks as WrestleMania is less than a month away.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
