WrestleMania 36: Top 5 performers at the PPV (Day 2)

#2 Edge

Nine years ago, Edge had to relinquish his title and step away from WWE action after sustaining a neck injury. Despite his struggles against the unfortunate injury, Edge was determined to end his pro-wrestling career on his terms.

He returned to WWE at Royal Rumble 2020 and the fans couldn’t contain their excitement. Everyone was dying to see him in action until Randy Orton decided to viciously attack his old friend.

Their feud had a brilliant build-up and their match at WrestleMania 36 brought it to a deserving end. Edge and Orton locked horns in a Last Man Standing Match. The two Superstars unleashed hell onto each other and moved all around the Performance Center during the bout. They attacked each other with all sorts of dangerous objects that they could find and at times, it looked like Edge wouldn’t sustain for too long.

However, the Rated-R Superstar defied all assumptions and managed to beat Orton at his own game. He picked his WrestleMania victory in an incredible match and he truly looked like he was in the best shape of his life.

It is widely accepted that his in-ring career is nearing its end but Edge now has another great match to his name and that too at the ‘Grandest Stage of Them All’.
