While Edge wasn’t a main eventer at the time, and Hulk Hogan was on his way out as a talent and serving more in a role to aid younger stars in getting over, this pairing was quite unique. One reason for that is that one of them, Edge, had grown up looking up to the other, and then eventually became Tag Team Champions together with the man he had looked up to in 2002. The combination was a short-lived pairing that certainly captured the attention of the WWE fans at the time.

Edge often tells the story of how watching Hogan from ringside at Wrestlemania VI, in their home town of Toronto, was what inspired him and his friend Christian to pursue wrestling as a career. It wasn’t until a few years later that Edge became not only a prominent main event challenger but an eleven-time Tag Team Champion. It is a feat his hero Hulk Hogan couldn’t claim, but one that made Edge’s career stand out.
