Will The Master Manipulator reign supreme at WrestleMania?

Kenny Bolin recently shared his thoughts on Edge's new character. The former OVW manager stated that he dislikes everything new about The Rated-R Superstar and prefers the old version of him.

The Ultimate Opportunist shocked the wrestling world when he turned heel a few weeks back on RAW. He took out AJ Styles with a Con-Chair-To after the latter accepted his open challenge for a match at WrestleMania. The subsequent weeks saw Edge adopt a darker persona, and he debuted a new theme song on Raw.

Speaking about this change of character with Sportskeeda Wrestling's Sid Pullar III, Bolin detailed that he hates the new song and the new character. But he went on to praise both Styles and his WrestleMania opponent:

"I hate the new theme song," said Bolin. "Hate the new Edge. I love the old him. I'm not into the new one at all. I just don't even buy that character at all. AJ is an excellent wrestler, Edge is an excellent wrestler and entertainer.

The former OVW manager also detailed that The Rated-R Superstar is more likely to win at WrestleMania as the company has put in a lot of effort in his new presentation.

"I would say that they wasted a lot of time, effort, and energy if they don't have him win," Bolin added. "But just to be different and for the sake of my son, I'll take AJ." [50:22 to 51:49]
