10 Biggest Stars Of Wrestling's Empty Arena Era (So Far)

10. Edge

By the time that Edge returned to our screens following his Randy Orton-induced beatdown on the post-Royal Rumble Raw, the Rated-R Superstar found himself in the empty WWE Performance Center.

Of course, Edge is a veteran performer who has mastered so many elements of the professional business. As such, that meant that this wily Hall of Famer took what was on offer and found a way to make it work in his favour.

Nobody across the industry has yet to deliver a promo anywhere close to the intensity of Adam Copeland during these most testing of times. With a legit blood feud to hang his hat on, Edge went the route of delivering his promos directly down the lens of the camera - a move that made his words more believable, a move that reiterated how his words were being directed straight to Orton, and a move that arguably made for better promos than those that would've been done in a crowded venue.

Granted, Edge would've received a huge pop when coming out to deliver a similar promo under regular circumstances. But in the hushed locale of the Performance Center, we were able to hear each and every beat that the Canadian was going for, we were able to hear every nuance in his words and every piece of vitriolic bite that was directed towards his 'Mania opponent.

We all know that Edge and Orton's Last Man Standing contest went way too long and didn't click in the way we all hoped it would, but both men were absolutely outstanding in the lead-up to this match.
