“A-Town” Takes Down Edge After Impressive Streak
Austin Theory ruins Edge’s record. No, WrestleLamia isn’t talking about one of Edge’s Foo Fighters vinyl LPs but his impressive record of not being pinned for 500+ days.
RAW should have been a triumphant night for Edge. “The Rated-R Superstar” seemed ready to piggyback off the success of his and Beth Phoenix’s win at Elimination Chamber to capture the U.S. title from Austin Theory.
Indeed, going into the match, the odds were with Edge as he hadn’t been pinned in over 500 days (his Extreme Rules “I Quit” Match loss technically wasn’t a pinfall loss) (H/T WrestleTalk).
However, the odds—and Finn Balor caught up with him. Finn interfered late in the match, helping Austin deliver an “A-Town Down” to a distracted Edge.
This resulted in Austin Theory scoring an impressive pin on Edge. Thanks to Balor, Edge was also robbed of his first WWE title in years and his impressive streak.
The U.S. Champion was in a good mood after his win, reminding interviewer Cathy Kelly why he’s the now and forever champion. Theory boasted of his work ethic and said he can’t wait to give John Cena a warm welcome on RAW. “A-Town” said things have changed on RAW, an ominous statement to be sure.
Austin Theory Ruins Edge’s Record
Going into the Theory match, Edge talked about how The Judgment Day was behind him. Finn Balor clearly felt otherwise and sent a painful reminder to Edge. Balor delivered three Coup de Graces to Edge after Edge lost to Theory.
There should be little doubt that Finn Balor and Edge will meet at WrestleMania. Will these two finally settle their differences or will “The Showcase of the Immortals” be the latest leg of their feud?
