6 Ups & 4 Downs From Edge's WWE Career
1. His First WrestleMania Main Event
On a card featuring matches like Ric Flair vs. Shawn Michaels and a Triple Threat between John Cena, Triple H and Randy Orton, it was never a given that Edge vs. The Undertaker would headline. What a buzz it must have been then when Edge found out that he and 'Taker would go on last at WrestleMania XXIV in Orlando.
They had around 25 minutes to work with. For the record, that was longer than both of Edge's previous singles matches on the show combined ('Mania X-8 against Booker T went six minutes and 'Mania 22 opposite Mick Foley went 14). Yep, this was a massive moment for the Canadian, and another big test he had to pass.
The match is a bit of an unheralded classic, probably because Flair's 'retirement' overshadowed everything else.
Edge's entire 2008 feud with The Undertaker is must-see stuff. Not only was the 'Mania main event great, but later TLC and Hell In A Cell matches turned out to be classics also. Edge still regards meeting 'Taker to close out WrestleMania as one of the biggest honours of his career, and with good reason.
