Will Edge Show Up At AEW GrandSlam In New York?
As the wrestling world braces itself for AEW Dynamite: Grand Slam, taking place at the hallowed grounds of Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York City, speculation runs rife about the possibility of Edge, the Rated-R Superstar, making a surprise appearance. With a card stacked to the brim with marquee matchups, this Wednesday night event promises to be a wrestling spectacle of epic proportions.
The Grand Slam Lineup
AEW has pulled no punches in crafting a lineup that has sent shockwaves of excitement throughout the wrestling community. Some of the most highly anticipated matches include AEW World Champion MJF squaring off against the enigmatic Samoa Joe, AEW Women’s World Champion Saraya locking horns with the talented Toni Storm, and AEW International Champion Jon Moxley clashing with the high-flying Rey Fenix. But that’s not all; a Title vs. Title Match will see ROH World Champion Claudio Castagnoli take on NJPW Strong Openweight Champion Eddie Kingston, and the legendary Chris Jericho will face off against the young dynamo Sammy Guevara.
Matt Cardona’s Tease
Adding an extra layer of intrigue to the event is former WWE star Matt Cardona, who has been teasing a potential appearance at AEW Grand Slam. Cardona, known to WWE fans as Zack Ryder, found himself entangled in a feud with AEW star Santana after retaining the House of Glory Title over Homicide. Following the match, Santana ambushed Cardona, setting the stage for a possible showdown.
Cardona, never one to back down from a challenge, took to social media to send a message to Santana. In this message, he hinted at a surprise appearance during the AEW event, leaving fans buzzing with anticipation.
Santana’s Response
Santana, in a fiery response, urged Cardona to stay within the AEW realm and to steer clear of the independent wrestling scene. However, Cardona, true to his bold persona, proclaimed himself the “indie God” and hinted at the potential for a Wednesday night appearance on AEW programming.
Edge’s Intriguing Connection
The intrigue surrounding Edge’s potential appearance at AEW Grand Slam stems from his history with Matt Cardona. The two have a longstanding friendship and have often been linked throughout their wrestling careers. Given this connection, fans have speculated that Edge might have a role to play in the Cardona vs. Santana feud or could even make a surprise appearance to support his friend.
Edge’s Wrestling Journey
Edge’s journey through the world of professional wrestling has been nothing short of legendary. After a storied career in WWE that culminated in several World Championships, he made a triumphant return to the ring after a forced retirement due to injury. His return to WWE was met with thunderous applause and marked a significant chapter in his wrestling legacy.
The Grand Slam Anticipation
As AEW Grand Slam approaches, the possibility of Edge’s surprise appearance adds an extra layer of excitement to an already star-studded card.
