The Rated R Superstar, Edge makes his return!
Tony Chimel announces Edge in classic Chimel fashion.
Edge tells us that everytime he comes out here, the WWE Universe reminds him why this is home. Edge welcomes us to The Cutting Edge then reveals the reason he’s here tonight is because he’s was requested by Triple H to have a reunion with Rated RKO Tag Partner, Randy Orton. Edge would rather have a reunion with his best friend Christian.
Edge says he’s know Randy Orton a long time and that Orton is like watching paint dry. Edge says he doesn’t have a problem with the way Orton cashed in, but he has a problem with the fact that Orton is now Triple H’s lackey. Edge refuses to put Randy Orton on The Cutting Edge. Instead, Edge brings out a guest that’ll be good for business, Daniel Bryan!
After a loud Daniel Bryan chant. Edge tells Daniel Bryan that he appreciates him coming out tonight since he’s been through a lot. Bryan agrees with Edge, but thinks it helps when you have so many people chanting your name. Bryan reminds us of the multiple attacks from Triple H and The Shield, but Bryan says there’s satisfaction in the struggle, because no matter how many times he gets attacked and held down by Triple H, he WILL beat Randy Orton, WILL regain the WWE Championship and WILL be WWE Champion.
Edge likes Daniel Bryan because of his determination and the fact that he sees a little bit of himself in Daniel Bryan. Edge says that he knows Bryan loves wrestling and that the people chose Daniel Bryan so he needs to beat Randy Orton. Edge tells Bryan that he doesn’t know if he can beat Orton, but he deserves a fair shot. Edge asks Bryan if he thinks he can beat Randy Orton, shove it in the man’s face and become the WWE Champion. Bryan screams “YES!” but is cut off by Randy Orton.
Randy Orton tells Edge that it’s a shame that every time he comes back, the only people who give a crap is Canada. Orton says it’s also a shame that Edge’s body failed him at such a young age. Edge says it’s a shame that Orton’s supposed to be the face of the WWE, but he acts like an entirely different body part. Edge tells Orton that he may have problems with his spine, but at least he has one.
Edge tells Randy Orton that he’s become Triple H’s puppet. Edge thinks Triple H has a great mind, but when it comes to picking talent, he flat out sucks.
Before Edge can continue, Triple H comes out to the King Of Kings music. Triple H that since Edge has something to say, he’d like him to say it to his face. Edge agrees since he doesn’t have to bite his tongue like the rest of the roster because he doesn’t work here. Edge thinks Triple H doesn’t know a damn about picking talent because he didn’t think Edge, Chris Jericho or John Cena could make it. Edge calls Triple H out on saying Daniel Bryan can’t make it. Edge tells Triple H that he knows his nose is huge, but he has to learn to look past it.
Triple H welcomes Edge to RAW and says it’s great to see him because it’s “Best For Business.” Triple H says that he had Edge on to promote Haven then promotes Haven (Friday Nights on SyFy at 10PM EST right after Friday Night Smackdown)
Triple H says that he may have gotten a few wrong about talent over the years, but he’s right about a lot too. Triple H admits to being wrong about Chris Jericho and John Cena, and thinks time will tell if Daniel Bryan proves him wrong. Triple H says that he was right about one person being a failure and that person is Edge.
Triple H says we can come out here and pretend that Edge is a big star and a legend because they’re in Canada, but claims that the “Rated R Superstar” Experiment was a failure. Triple H says Edge never drew a dime. Triple H claims that usually when he says that, the person gets the opportunity to prove them wrong, like Chris Jericho and John Cena did. Triple H says that Daniel Bryan will get the opportunity to prove him wrong tonight in a match against Dean Ambrose. Triple H says The Shield will be in Ambrose’s corner, and The Big Show will be in Daniel Bryan’s corner since Edge’s ability to fight like a man has long passed.
Triple H claims that contrary to popular belief, he is not a dictator. After being cut off by an asshole chant, Edge says that he didn’t have to marry into success because he earned his Hall Of Fame ring. Edge tells Triple H that he’s not a dictator, he’s just a dick.
Triple H says it’s easy for Edge to talk since he can’t fight and has a “stack of dimes” for a neck, but since he can’t hurt Edge, he can hurt the ones he loves. The Shield bring out a beaten Christian.
Edge runs to the ramp and tends to a fallen Christian. Edge demands that the referees get some help.

Triple H says he knows the doctors won’t clear him and tells Edge who the hell he thinks he is on his show and his town running his mouth like that? Triple H tells Edge to get out of his town, his city, his building, and off his show. Triple H offers for The Shield to escort him out, but Edge walks out on his own.
