In 2009, Edge and Chris Jericho were both on the WWE SmackDown roster. At The Bash 2009, Jericho and Edge competed in a Triple Threat match which was contested for the Unified Tag Team titles. The heelish duo defeated The Colons and The Legacy to win the belts. During a live event, Edge suffered a torn Achilles Tendon while competing against Jeff Hardy. He took a hiatus to recover from his injury, while Jericho replaced Edge with Big Show.

Edge came back at the 2010 Royal Rumble and ended up winning the free-for-all. He retired a year later, courtesy his neck injury. Edge made a miraculous return at the 2020 Royal Rumble PPV and later engaged in a fierce rivalry with Randy Orton.
