10 Things We Learned From WWE 24: Edge

8. He Designed A Ton Of His Own WWE Gear

Around 20 minutes into WWE 24, Edge and Christian are shown sitting down with a random shoe box. The latter didn't know what was in it, but his childhood pal was only too happy to show him. Inside that box, Edge revealed, was sheer E&C history.

His auntie had found the box in her wardrobe back home. It was one Edge's mother had kept, and it housed many of his old comic book-style sketches, drawings and concept art for a career the Canadian youngster didn't have yet. Both friends-turned-WWE legends described exploring the box contents as "therapeutic".

Seeing some of Edge's concept drawings for gear he'd later use in WWE was amazing. The Sexton Hardcastle tights wouldn't make it to WWE though - more's the pity, because the red and black barbed wire motif Edge designed as a teen was pretty special.

That box would sell for big money on eBay.
