Edge’s original return plans were allegedly cancelled, so we’ll take a look at what’s
going on there.
We’ll also take a look at what’s going on with The Mysterios, and much more
Let’s start things off with Edge’s return
Everyone knows that the mystery vignettes that have been airing on Raw since early July
are connected to Edge, but even though we know who’s behind them, there’s still
a lot of mystery to it
Some fans think that Edge will bring help with him, some think he’ll be back it his
Rated-R superstar persona, some think he’ll have an even darker persona… just all this
mystery surrounding Edge’s return itself
On top of all the questions about what version of Edge we’ll see when he returns, the next
biggest question to ask is when will we see Edge return
Well reports have been coming out regarding the original plans for Edge’s return
According to these reports, it seemed like the original plans included Edge returning
before Summerslam and wrestling at the event
One of the rumored reasons for Edge’s removal from The Judgment Day right away was that
WWE planned on using a babyface Edge to strengthen the babyface roster that took a big hit when
Cody Rhodes went down
So the plan was for Edge to step in and fill in that main babyface role all summer long
that Cody was originally going to be in
And these reports claim that not only was Edge booked for Summerslam, but they say Beth
Phoenix was also in the plans as well
Beth is retired, but she’ll hop in and out of retirement from time to time
She returned for a little run in 2019 and had another big run in early 2022 where she
teamed up with Edge to take on Miz and Maryse
So by the looks of these reports, it appears that maybe WWE was planning on another in-ring
return from Beth, most likely to help Edge out with Rhea Ripley
In the very few weeks that Edge was leading The Judgment Day, Beth Phoenix was very vocal
on Twitter about how she didn’t agree with anything Edge was doing and how she knew that
there was some good left in him
So Beth was against the group from the very start and then they brutally kicked out Edge
as well, so it’s makes sense if she wants to spring back into action and help Edge bring
down his creation that has gone extremely wrong
Hearing that WWE planned on bringing Edge and Beth to Summerslam also fuels the fan
theory that Edge was possibly gonna return with a new trio to face off against The Judgment
Day
If Edge was bringing in Beth to cancel out Rhea Ripley, it makes you really wonder if
Edge maybe would bring in a third member to help take down Judgment Day
Of course everyone wants it to be someone crazy and exciting like Bray Wyatt, but that
obviously has such a low chance of actually taking place
But it doesn’t even have to be someone crazy or be a big surprise, having Edge’s third
be someone like AJ Styles would be pretty perfect as well
AJ Styles and Edge started off their Wrestlemania feud in a friendly matter, but it was Edge’s
heel turn on AJ Styles that spiraled everything out of control and into the creation of The
Judgment Day
So maybe they have a moment there where Edge apologizes to AJ Styles for everything and
recruits him to join him and Beth
Anything like that would’ve been interesting to see for sure, but obviously those original
plans had changed
Everyone thought we would see Edge in action against The Judgment Day in some capacity
at Summerslam, but The Judgment Day ended up facing The Mysterios
No one know why all these changes were made, but maybe it falls into the same ballpark
of why Seth Rollins and Riddle was changed, maybe they wanted to save Edge versus The
Judgment Day for Clash At The Castle
Clash at The Castle is this massive show for the UK, who hasn’t hosted an event of this
magnitude in twenty plus years, so maybe they’re just changing and saving everything to load
up the card for Clash At The Castle
If that does turn out to be the reason why then Clash would already have three huge matches
on the card
It’ll most likely be Riddle versus Seth Rollins, Edge versus Finn Balor, and Roman
Reigns versus Drew McIntyre… not a bad first look at the Clash At The Castle card at all
——————-
A popular topic for over a year now and something was hinted at even from Dominik’s first
feud with Seth Rollins was the idea of Rey Mysterio and Dominik turning on each other
Obviously, Rey Mysterio could never turn on his son, so if a heel turn ever happened,
it would most likely be Dominik in the heel role and initiating the split
Well in a recent interview with BT Sport, Rey Mysterio addressed the idea of him and
Dominik splitting up
Rey Mysterio had this to say about that popular fan theory and topic, quote:
“We actually talked about that during his first couple of weeks of training.
I remember sitting down with him, and telling him … ‘Could you imagine if you started
working and then we teamed up and eventually, you know, whether I turned on you or you turned
on me?’
Yeah, that would be cool … Over time, it’s like, I don’t think we can do that.
Our connection has been so tight, you know, from day one, the age of seven, and Eddie
Guerrero and myself.
I don’t think that it would be — storyline-wise, it might be attractive, but I need to feel
it at the moment, during that time.
Right now, I feel like we just, we have a really tight bond, but it would be something
special.”
End quote
So according to Rey, it was something that they had fun with and talked about a few years
ago, but as time went on, Rey Mysterio just can’t see that storyline happening
Rey agrees that it may be an attractive storyline idea and concept, but it needs to be a perfect
moment in order for him to be on board with it happening
And Rey is completely right and that’s something we talked about when this theory first came
up
No matter what route you take it in, Rey turns on Dominik or Dominik turns on Rey… it’s
a very dark storyline
We’ve seen Rey and Dominik together on WWE television when Dominik was barely in elementary
school, so to see them together on screen with each other for 20 years and then see
this brutal heel turn, it’s gonna be one of the most darkest heel turns we’ve seen
in quite sometime
It’s either gonna be a father turning on the son or the son turning on the father…
no matter who turns, everyone is gonna be completely at a loss for words
So it doesn’t sound like Rey is fully against the storyline idea, but it looks like he just
wants it to make sense and take place at the absolute perfect moment
As far as the latest update for The Mysterios, they got their hands full right now dealing
with The Judgment Day
Aliyah Mysterio got herself involved in a storyline recently for the first time since
December 2020
When Rhea Ripley made her surprise return to attack Rey Mysterio and Dominik, Aliyah
stepped up to confront Rhea Ripley before Rhea pushed her out of the way
So the big question there is if that brief little moment will lead to anything significant
Will Aliyah stick around for a bit like she did in 2020 and maybe look for some revenge
against Rhea Ripley
No one really expects Aliyah to step into the ring with Rhea Ripley, but maybe she can
just interfere in some capacity to get some revenge on Rhea for that little shove
So lots of story could be happening soon involving the Mysterios, so we’ll have to keep our
eyes out for that
But what are your thoughts on today’s stories with Edge’s cancelled plans and the latest
with The Mysterios?
