“Edge can't do the road anymore.” - Nick Patrick

He said: “Everybody's talking about whether he's going to retire. I think he's going to be like The Undertaker. Edge can't do the road anymore. The road is for a young guy. It was a miracle how he made his comeback in 2020 after having neck surgery and the problems he had. Vince McMahon doesn't just pick and choose wrestlers working a part-time schedule. But he does it with Brock Lesnar but everybody else has to do road." Former WWE head writer Brian Gewirtz also shared his thoughts on Edge’s future.

While speaking to Steve Fall of "Ten Count", he said: " certainly, in my opinion, doesn't have anything to look back on and go, 'Oh, if only I had done that. He's had a pretty full, amazing career over 25 years. He's going to be 50 in November. He's a husband and father. He has a budding acting career. Pretty much, he could do whatever he sets his mind to do at this point. So, I don't know. Physically, he came back. Everyone was astonished when he came back at the Royal Rumble a few years ago and didn't really miss a step, didn't miss a beat. And Christian is back, too, in AEW, and it's really astonishing and also heartwarming to see."
