Edge is currently set to take on AJ Styles on WrestleMania Sunday, a dream match coming to life for most WWE fans. The recent heel turn of The Rated-R Superstar has been a fun surprise for fans and has added a new layer to the Hall of Famer's character.

According to an exclusive report by Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp, Edge's new heel persona has WWE's creative team mulling over the idea of giving him his very own stable shortly following WrestleMania. In his report, Sapp details how individuals in WWE are high on The Rated-R Superstar's current character and want to add another facet to his story.

Little is known about what the stable would be called, how it would form, or exactly who would be in it. However, Sapp reports that several names have been tossed around as future stable members, including former United States Champion Damian Priest.

While there has been no clear indication from WWE or the Rated-R Superstar that this is happening, however Edge's dramatic shift in character change would lead one to believe that it's not just for one match.

This would not be the first stable that he has been involved with in WWE, throughout his career The Hall of Famer has been in a number of stables including: The Brood, La Familia, and Rated RKO.

The former world champion turned heel once again in late February, hitting AJ Styles with a low-blow and 2 con-chair-tos in the process. Following AJ Styles' challenge to the veteran for a match at WrestleMania 38. Since then, Edge has showcased a much darker character than fans are used to; even changing his iconic theme song.
