Edge and Seth Rollins have never faced each other. The ‘Rated-R Superstar‘ had already been in retirement for over a year before Rollins made his main roster debut as part of The Shield. However, the two did cross paths once on Monday Night Raw. And well, it didn’t turn out good for the ‘Ultimate Opportunist’.

Christian and Edge hosted ‘The Cutting Edge Peep Show’ on the final WWE Raw of 2014. To make things interesting, Seth Rollins was called as the first guest. However, that didn’t turn out well for E&C. Especially, E.

In an attempt to reinstate The Authority, Seth Rollins went in a state of rage and threatened to stomp Edge’s face on his MITB briefcase. John Cena thought for a while before eventually giving in and reinstating the authority. At the time Edge wasn’t medically cleared, but now the story is different.

Seth Rollins and Edge could simply reignite their feud over their brief history. After all, that was a very strong segment and some great storytelling. At the time, it helped Rollins elevate his heel character to another level. This time round, a full-fledged feud with Edge makes us wonder where his heel antics would go!
