WWE Hall of Famer Edge made his return to wrestling earlier this year at Royal Rumble 2020, after being out of the company for nine years due to neck injury. Edge, who won numerous titles in WWE becoming a Triple Crown and Grand Slam Champion, began his WWE career back in 1996. He had a few matches in WWE before being officially signed in 1997.

In an appearance on Chris Jericho's Talk is Jericho, Edge spoke about his WCW matches:

"That was the thing I so quickly learned [how crazy WCW was]. I walked in and I was like, oh, this locker room doesn’t feel good. You’d see the guys that you could go to, and I remember talking to Chris [Benoit]. He knew I was Canadian, he found out I was Canadian so he pulled me aside and he was like just be careful here. I was like oh, okay. It was about 95, 96. He said don’t trust anybody here. I was like okay, got it."
