Edge addressed Randy Orton

Edge addressed Randy Orton

At WrestleMania, it will be Edge vs. Randy Orton in the ultimate test of grit — a Last Man Standing Match. And from the confined space of an undisclosed location, The Rated-R Superstar gave one last address to the rival who called him a “junkie” for his own in-ring persona last week.

On that point, Edge didn’t exactly dispute The Apex Predator. He did, however, dispute Orton’s assessment of his own grit, claiming that “okay with being okay” isn’t the same as his own grueling path back to the ring, to say nothing of the type of man who will “reach into a hole and pull someone up that doesn’t deserve it.”

Ironically, Edge claimed he and Orton bring out the best in each other — Orton hasn’t been as good as he was when Edge was first around, and Orton’s attacks on Edge’s family are what motivated him to stick around — but at least one of Edge’s definitions of grit is now out the window: “You dug yourself another hole, Randy,” he said. “This time, I’m not gonna pull you back out. I’m gonna push you so far in you will never get back out.”
