10 years ago today I was forced to retire. Forfeit the World Heavyweight Championship. Tonight, I main event #WrestleMania against two of the very best to ever do this for the Universal Championship. We all have the power to write our own stories. pic.twitter.com/PHY1N4K41s

Edge appeared in the TV series Sanctuary in 2011 starting as a character named Thelo for two appearances on the show.

He made 42 appearances on the TV show Haven starring Dwight Hendrickson. Haven is a show based on a Stephen King story and has more of a supernatural feel to it.

Between 2011 and 2015, Edge worked on these two shows and while also working on many WWE side projects. He would star in one episode of The Flash playing the villain, Atom Smasher, before appearing in a 2016 episode of the series Private Eyes where he played a character named Ben Fisk.

Edge made a one-episode appearance for the comedy group The Trailer Park Boys in their animated series where he voiced the character Sledge.

More notably, Edge starred in 25 different episodes of the hit series Vikings. He grew his beard out and played Kjetill Flatnose in the TV show. He made these appearances over the years of 2017-2020 before his return to WWE.

The final season of @HistoryVikings is streaming now on @PrimeVideo What happens to this chipper fella named Kjetill? Who sails to Valhalla? I lost 37lbs for this seasons’ story arc(you’ll see why). It was...challenging, but I’m so happy with the final product. Hope you enjoy. pic.twitter.com/bEeZ4FANzV

Now that Edge is back in WWE full time, there is a good chance we will only be seeing him on WWE TV for a while.

As nice as it is to have Edge back in the ring, eventually he might appear in a non-wrestling role again but only time will tell.
