10 Things We Learned From Christian Cage On Renée Paquette's Podcast

7. Christian Wasn’t Nervous At Royal Rumble

Christian Cage Renee Paquette Oral Sessions
WWE

January's Royal Rumble marked Christian's first official wrestling match in seven long years, but he told Paquette that he wasn't nervous "at all" when standing behind the curtain. An incredible wave of calm swept over Cage before he bounced through the curtain as the bout's 24th entrant.

He knew he was about to have fun.

Renée was slightly taken aback to learn that her mate was so serene at the Rumble. She thought for sure he'd be a nervous wreck; after all, Edge had been apprehensive about his own in-ring comeback 12 months before at the 2020 Rumble. Christian isn't quite sure why he was so calm.

Maybe it's because that moment had been such a long time coming. Seven years of ring rust is a lot to shake off in 18 minutes, but Cage looked like he'd been wrestling every single week during his appearance. That, he admits, felt damn good.
