History

The 'Rated-R Superstar' was the perfect fit for the role of the 'Flatnose' warrior. Kjetill shared similar traits to Adam Copeland's wrestling persona of Edge; even having a heel turn in Season Five.

Before appearing in 'Vikings', Copeland co-starred in 42 episodes of the psychotronic series 'Haven' and made guest appearances in the TV shows 'The Flash', 'Sanctuary' and 'Private Eyes'.

Rather than pursuing additional film credits, Copeland stepped back into the squared circle, in a shocking and heart-warming fashion. The 11-time World Champion surprised the WWE Universe, entering at #21 in the 2020 Royal Rumble match. The Texas crowd came unglued, as Edge returned to in-ring competition for the first time in nine years.

Edge won the men's Royal Rumble bout the following year and headlined the second night of WrestleMania 37. There, he challenged Daniel Bryan and Universal Champion Roman Reigns in a losing effort. He is scheduled to face the 'Head of the Table', one-on-one, at WWE's Money in the Bank PPV on the 18 July.
