Or should we call it The Edge Show?

At No Way Out 2009, Edge walked into SmackDown's Elimination Chamber Match as the defending WWE Champion. However, he'd be eliminated in the first few minutes by Jeff Hardy, allowing Triple H to capture the gold in an exciting ending with The Undertaker.

Frustrated by his quick loss, 'The Rated R Superstar' would then attack Kofi Kingston during his entrance, taking his place in RAW's Chamber Match for John Cena's World Heavyweight Championship.

Edge eliminated Cena, leading to their 'Mania title bout also involving Big Show, before facing Rey Mysterio in a fantastic mini-match in the bout's final minutes. After an inverted 619 to Edge's back, he'd send a charging Rey through a pod, before Spearing him to win the World Championship.

Just like that, SmackDown had both World championships just a number of weeks before WrestleMania, leading to two disappointing title contests at that year's 'Mania.

However, it's safe to say No Way Out's swerve was a fun moment and it completely fit Edge's character as the ultimate opportunist.

But still, did Vince Russo secretly book this or what!?
