#4 Edge had an incredible night at WrestleMania 37 but there is unfinished business

One of the reasons why Daniel Bryan was added to the WrestleMania main event may have been out of concern for Edge. He was seemingly looking older and more grizzled every week. It did not seem like the WWE Hall of Famer would be able to pull off such a huge match on his own alongside Roman Reigns. But he did.

In fact, his showing possibly exceeded expectations. He was ridiculously over, while the fans were mixed for Bryan and universally against Reigns. Edge replicated their energy in the ring, performing at his highest level. He was the babyface in the match, despite the story drifting away from that during the build.

This proved just how much he has left in the tank, with the fans playing a huge part in making him feel special again. The Rated-R Superstar may have also had the match won at WrestleMania, despite being stacked alongside Daniel Bryan and pinned by Roman Reigns.

Edge hit Bryan with a Con-chair-to before Jey Uso rushed in and attacked him, allowing Reigns to put him down. But the 11-time world champion is back and has unfinished business with The Head of the Table. His performance at WrestleMania may have contributed to this feud continuing.
