Edge and Christian were gone and never coming back.Ģ020 – Present-Day: A Bond That Will Last Foreverįortunately, both Superstars managed to make shocking returns from their injury-induced retirements. Unlike Edge, Christian did not get the chance to address the WWE Universe about his unfortunate retirement and he faded into the background, occasionally making spot appearances on television as host of his in-ring talk show, "The Peep Show."įrom that point forward, the WWE Universe had made peace with itself. Once again, news of another Superstar's early retirement sent shockwaves throughout the WWE Universe. However, in the spring of 2014, Christian suffered a severe concussion, an injury that forced him into retirement as well. Suffice it to say we think Edge was beyond proud of what Christian accomplished. Christian would achieve great success on his own, highlighted by an unforgettable feud against Randy Orton that gave the WWE Universe some of the greatest World Heavyweight Championship matches ever. Christian went at it alone for the first time in his career and he made the most of his opportunity. While the two men didn't come to blows during this time, the WWE Universe could see there was still plenty of mutual respect, and simmering animosity, between the two.įrom that point forward, Christian had a new purpose: Make his friend proud. He quickly won the ECW Championship, mirroring Edge's success with the World Heavyweight Championship at the time. By 2006, Edge was firmly entrenched in his "Rated-R Superstar" persona, capturing the WWE Championship multiple times and taking John Cena to the limit in countless classic matches.Ĭhristian returned to WWE in 2009 and immediately went to work. Still, this was arguably the apex of Edge's career. In 2005, Christian left WWE entirely, leaving Edge to fend for himself.

For the next few years, the two Superstars must have seen the writing on the wall because they went down very separate paths in the world of professional wrestling, making new alliances and getting caught up in bitter rivalries without each other. Fittingly, at No Mercy 2001, the two met in a ladder match for Edge's Intercontinental Championship, a breathtaking match that ultimately saw Edge retain his title.
