WWE returnee Edge has his eye on two opponents in particular after WrestleMania.

Edge has been naming possible opponents left, right and centre during his post-Royal Rumble media tour, but two names keep popping up in every interview. In fact, Edge told CBS Sports that both matches "have to happen" before he eventually hangs up his boots (for good this time).

The 'Rated-R Superstar' will likely challenge Roman Reigns for the Universal Title at WrestleMania 37 in early-April. After that, he has his eyes fixed firmly on both AJ Styles and Seth Rollins. Those names are right at the top of Edge's own personal wishlist.

Edge also repeated his wish to Corey Graves' 'After The Bell' podcast and said that he doesn't see his latest run as some sort of "greatest hits tour". Instead, he wants to give back and "tell compelling stories" whenever he steps foot inside the ring.

The Canadian certainly managed to do that with his bell-to-bell performance at the Royal Rumble, and again in a fun feud-ending match with Randy Orton 24 hours later on Raw.

It looks like Edge is heading for a big, big year. Roman Reigns first, then AJ Styles and Seth Rollins. Bring it on.
