For the “Off The Top Rope” segment, Jonathan Coachman looked back at Edge’s top WrestleMania moments – Top Main Event was against The Undertaker at WrestleMania 24, Top Spot was spearing Mick Foley through the flaming table at WrestleMania 22, Top Match was the TLC Match from WrestleMania 16 with The Dudley Boyz and The Hardy Boyz.
Edge then joined the show and spoke about being in the crowd for Hulk Hogan vs. The Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania 6 and knowing he wanted to be in that ring one day.
Regarding the infamous TLC match at WrestleMania 2000, Edge says they all knew they had to do something different to get noticed in WWE at that time because there were so many other top stars.
Regarding the flaming table spot with Foley, Edge says he was in the mind-frame where he wanted to be in the main event and if he wasn’t, he was going to make sure everyone came out of the event thinking he should have been in the main event.
Coach brought up The Undertaker vs. Shane McMahon at WrestleMania 32 and asks about Edge vs. Taker in 2009. Edge says when he got the call to do the match he thought “finally” because that’s where he had been trying to get to, especially against an icon like The Undertaker. Edge says he knew he had done something right. Edge says he made his entrance and had never been that amped before.
They spoke about Edge’s tag team with Christian and Edge said there is no Edge without Christian. It was a tough transition for them establishing themselves as singles stars. They’ve having fun with their new Edge & Christian show and are not afraid to embarass themselves.
Coach also asked about the final weeks leading up to his final WrestleMania and retirement. Edge called the last week a “whirlwind” but knew that his career was winding down. He was at the point where he just wanted to work with younger talents.
Edge spoke more about his favorite WrestleMania moments to end the segment.
