Edge was just on "After Math" on the Score with Arda Ocal and Jimmy Korderas to discuss his impending induction into WWE's Hall of Fame. Edge was asked how he felt about the honor, and Edge said "I feel old." Edge revealed that he was told by WWE personnel and was told by Ocal that he was the youngest inducted. Korderas joked that Edge could borrow his AARP card.
Ocal asked Edge about the year he had with the retirement and everything. Edge said it was a surreal year. He then said it was a weird year. He said he didn't think he would wind up the year after retirement sitting on a chair with tea cup poodle. Edge then said, "I have a tea cup poodle, Branny, but he's tough." As for the Hall of Fame, Edge said it seemed soon. He thought it was a compliment. Edge said that WWE employees and wrestlers voted, and was told the vote was unanimous, and he then felt more at ease. Edge was asked by Korderas if he was given a choice of who would induct him, and he said he guessed he would be given the choice, and if given the choice, Christian would be the one.
Edge was asked if entering the Hall of Fame would have validated his career and if it would have been a nice way to end his career. He said that being in the Hall of Fame would have been Icing on the cake. Edge said that he would have liked to wrestle Christian at Mania. However, Edge did say the honor is humbling. Being inducted with the Four Horsemen is surreal.
Edge was asked about his neck. He said it was doing well, but he was learning as he goes as to what bothers it, and what doesn't.. He said he went to dentist a couple of months ago and could not turn his neck for two days. He said will have to eventually get neck surgery. Flights over 2 hours bother him for a day. He said he got three neck surgeries, and really doesn't want to get a 4th surgery. He said he biked 13 miles that day. He said he bikes, and does stuff to keep pressure off the neck.
He said every day he finds stuff to do. He said he does hiking, biking, and plays records. He said he will do Season three of Haven, the Hall of Fame, and he talked up his movie. He said it is getting busy again. He discussed his DVD. He said he saw advanced copy, and was happy with it. He said he was hands on in selection of the matches. Problems came up in selecting the matches because a lot of his matches were 25 minutes long, and they could only put so many on the DVD.
Their last question was about Royal Rumble matches. Edge said they could be a nightmare. He was called upon to help with the matches because of his memory. He said he was "stuck" with telling others what to do in the match.
The interview ends with the guys teasing Edge about being a DJ at one of their weddings. Edge said "As long as you don't mind a little Pearl Jam."
"He thought it was a compliment. Edge said that WWE employees and wrestlers voted, and was told the vote was unanimous, and he then felt more at ease. "
yeah, there was a vote Vince 1 anyone else 0. Unanimous. I really doubt he could get 5 wrestlers to vote for him after he took the coward way out.

Yeah, because he should of continued wrestling and risked been in a wheelchair just to entertain idiots like you.

Once again the WWE shows why no one should take the Hall of Fame seriously.

savage, trish, wahoo, murdoch, warrior, hansen, elizabeth, rude, honky tonk man, benoit, jake the snake, midnight express, brody, bam bam, kevin sullivan, rick martel etc....
plenty of people FAR ahead of edge. i doubted he would ever get in after the way his career ended, but this soon?

Edge was on his way to be a easy hall of fame choice but he ended his career because his neck was sore. Really?
Many guys have pain, there are plenty of pills you can take to get by.
To totally quit and refuse to put Del Rio over in your last match is unprofessional.

Congratulations to Adam Copeland for getting into the WWE Hall of Fame for 2012.

he deserves the hall of shame more than the hall of fame. wtf

The trolls need more practice. This has to be the worst trolling in less than 10 comments I've ever seen and if some are truly not trolling karma is a biach as the old saying goes. If you had his long term injuries you probably wouldn't be able to get off the couch in your momma's basement that was bought in the 70's. Of course this is comparison to not getting off her couch which is the case now.

I really don't understand why this whole "Edge is a pussy for retiring" nonsense is still going on. It's about as funny as the Paul Roma, Dennis Stamp, "Is this a one shot deal?" and "TNA/WWE is dying" trolls. This is part of why I don't read 411 as much as I used too.

Is this 'Edge is a pussy for retiring' story a one shot deal, or is it truly the death of WWE/TNA?

People feel this induction of his is way too soon. They are not trolls just because they have a different opinion then yours, wwe fanboys.

I agree with most of those, but Trish Fucking Stratus? She wrestled for 5 years and then did what these trolls are accusing Edge of doing: quit.
If Trish goes in the HOF, I hope Lesnar is in the same class. Because they both basically walked out on the company that made them.

They are trolls because they make fun of Edge for retiring due to neck problems. Keep up...

Wow, you are so uber cool! See what he did there folks? He used all of the troll gimmicks I said were lame and overused, and he used all of them at the same time! What originality! Ok, now back to your regularly scheduled being a life long virgin with you...

By the time they induct Trish or Lita, most of the fans will have forgotten who they were.
Oops, too late.

How dare you ingrates insult Edge like that! He is a true wrestling hero from Canada! You American scum are never happy. Sit in your filth and obesity and be miserable you swine.
Posted By: The Masked Jobber (Guest) on January 10, 2012 at 01:50 PM
the same idiots saying Edge is a coward are the same retards who would make fun of him for being crippled had he continued his career. He was smart enough to not wind up looking like Dynamite Kid or Droz. I'd like to see those idiots go out there and do the same thing and see how quickly they quit

This times 100. I'll bet anything that if Edge continued to wrestle and, God forbid, crippled himself in the ring, the same people going "OMG, Edge is such a pussy, grow a pair and wrestle through the pain you whiny bitch!" would rush to be the first ones to say "Wow, what a fucking idiot, he could have retired and kept himself from being crippled, but now he's in a wheelchair! LOL, what a moron!" Wrestling trolls are easily the most retarded I've ever seen.
Posted By: Zap Brannigan (Guest) on January 10, 2012 at 04:06 PM
How sad that the WWE is letting a quitter like Edge into the hall of frame so soon. He should be in the hall of shame for being such a coward and so unprofessional for not wanting to put over Albert Del rio. Even Cena and Punk put over ADR.
Edge is a disgrace.
Posted By: Spencer Mallard (Guest) on January 10, 2012 at 08:26 PM
"I really doubt he could get 5 wrestlers to vote for him after he took the coward way out."
So because he put his long term helath and his life first that means he took 'the coward's way out'... Are you high? No sane person would think that.
