WWE superstar Edge is what every bad guy aspires to be. Smart, cold and downright opportunistic. Edge had an excellent career in the WWE and came up from humble beginnings. He first started off as part of a tag team with Christian and later embarked on a singles run that few superstars can match. Unfortunately, he had to retire in 2011 because he had problems with his neck. It was then that he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. In 2020, Edge made a dream comeback after everyone thought that he would never come back. Since then, he has embarked on a run that had a lot of ups and fewer downs. During the course of his long career, he had many matches at WrestleMania and in this article, we will take a look at some of his best matches at the grandest stage of them all.
Fighting The Undertaker in a WrestleMania main event is the greatest thing that any wrestler could hope for and that is what happened with Edge at WrestleMania 24. The Rater-R Superstar took on the Deadman for the World Heavyweight Championship. This match had everything that a perfect wrestling match should have. A lot of crazy spots and a ton of near falls. The Rater-R Superstar pushed Taker to his absolute limit and there were moments when it felt like the famous undefeated streak of the Undertaker would come to an end. Then out of nowhere, Taker locked Edge in the Hells Gate and forced him to submit.

This match was probably the most extreme match that Edge was involved in during his career. Mick Foley was a hardcore master and challenged Edge to a hardcore match at WrestleMania 22. Foley was getting along in age but still had some fuel left in the tank and he put it on display. It was a top performance from both men as they used a lot of weapons and took a lot of scary bumps. The highlight of the match was Edge spearing Mick through a table that was on fire to take the win.
Edge sent shockwaves throughout the world when he made his return to the WWE in the 2020 Royal Rumble. During the match, he eliminated his long time buddy and former tag team partner, Randy Orton. The next day on RAW, Orton turned heel and attacked the Rater-R Superstar and that set a match at WrestleMania 36. Both men would go head to head in a last man standing match. Orton attacked Edge disguised as a cameraman with an RKO. The two superstars took the fight throughout the arena and laid it all out. In the end, Edge applied a sleeper hold on Orton, who passed out on a chair and was unable to answer the referee’s 10 count.
