#6. Edge puts a poetic end to his feud with Seth Rollins at Crown Jewel ahead of their move to RAW

Edge and Seth Rollins delivered yet another classic at Crown Jewel 2021. It's said that there are two matches in a pay-per-view that hold the most importance - the first and the last. Perhaps that's why Roman Reigns reportedly demanded that he either main events a pay-per-view or opens it - nothing in between.

In the case of Crown Jewel, putting Edge vs Seth Rollins first was a tricky decision, because after the halfway point, it was clear that no match on the card would top it.

The duo had their longest and arguably best match yet as Edge defeated Seth Rollins to conclude their trilogy. In hindsight, it shouldn't come as a surprise that the two stole the show despite an overall stacked card for Crown Jewel.

Thankfully, enough matches on the card delivered to make it a great pay-per-view overall.

The feud can be looked back on as a great one that lived up to the expectations. It's 2021, and nobody would have imagined 7 years ago that Seth Rollins and Edge would have a brutal, grueling yet incredible trilogy against one another.

The match was filled with quite a few subtle moments that fans missed, from Edge's throwback moment to his first Hell in a Cell match, to a small tribute to AEW star Christian - his best friend, as well as incredible storytelling to cap off the feud.

Seth Rollins losing the feud won't be a bad thing, and fans who feel that the younger star should have won shouldn't have to worry. Seth Rollins proved that he's still among the best in the world, and he played his role to perfection.

Edge and Seth Rollins both move to RAW following Crown Jewel, and the two men will now go their separate ways after months of feuding against each other.
