Edge is one of the most celebrated and respected performers in WWE history. Two stars who got their big break whilst working with him were Brian Myers (a.k.a. Curt Hawkins) and Matt Cardona (a.k.a Zack Ryder). Myers has been recapping how he ended up joining forces with The Rated R Superstar.
In 2007, when the former world champion was performing as the most sneaky and dubious version of his WWE character to date, he enlisted the help of Myers and Cardona to work with him as 'Edgeheads', performers donning similar ring gear in an attempt to cheat the officials and win.
Speaking on The Sessions with Renee Paquette, the former WWE Tag Team Champion spoke about how he and Cardona started performing with the Hall of Famer.
"Edge was a hello and goodbye person to us at the time... I was like, 'Well, what if we tell him about this idea?' So we garnished the courage to go up to him and say, 'Hey, we have this idea'... He said, 'Here's my email. Email it to me.' So, we crafted this email and I sent it to him and it worked. He read it and loved it and that got the ball rolling and made it all happen."
