Having dominated WWE for the better part of four years as the company's top heel, Edge suffered a torn Achilles tendon in July of 2009 that halted his record 12th Tag Team Championship reign, this time with Chris Jericho.

Reportedly out of action for up to a year, Jericho began to speak poorly of Edge, laying the foundations for the Rated-R Superstar to return as a babyface.

Edge's surprise entrance in the following year's Royal Rumble came much earlier than expected, entering 29th and immediately eliminating Chris Jericho en route to winning the match. He is one of only 2 Superstars to accomplish this feat.

Although Edge was unsuccessful in defeating Jericho for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania XXVI, his Rumble victory made him the first man to win all three of WWE's major gimmick crowns: Royal Rumble, King of the Ring, and Money in the Bank.
