3. The First Edge vs. Christian Match In The WWF Took Place in 1997

In the 1996 version of this column, we discussed Edge€™s first WWF match where he substituted and faced Bob Holly. In 1997, Adam Copeland had another dark match, but this time, he was joined by a fellow unknown. The date was November 11, and the place was Cornwall, Ontario, Canada, mere days after the Montreal Screwjob. It was a Monday Night Raw taping which would be aired on the following Monday (11/17), which meant that the cameras were rolling. In a dark match, Adam Copeland (Edge) defeated Christian Cage in about five minutes. Because the cameras were rolling, footage of the match exists, and was actually included in the Edge: A Decade of Decadence DVD.
