AFTER THE BELL WITH COREY GRAVES 04/09/20: EDGE

Edge on his WrestleMania match with Randy Orton:
"We had a lot of things that we had to adapt around on top of doing it in an empty arena. The time that we filmed it didn't coordinate with the ideas we had. We find that out on the day, hours before, so we had to change everything. Then that's truly what you saw was a 40-minute audible and I'm proud of that. I'm proud that we, without uttering two words to each other, were able to do that."

Edge on coming back:
"I want to tell some compelling, layered, nuanced stories. Some folks can be able to dip into my gray matter for that time, then amazing. That's really what I'm here for. I'm not here to add to my stats or anything like that. It's to come back, try and help, and then be able to finally go out on my own terms and not just be surprised that it was my last match and it was already in the rear view mirror and go damn, I might have looked at it differently if I knew that was my last match. I want to be able to know this is my last match so I can fully, fully appreciate it and also be at this stage of my life and I do appreciate everything more. And I do appreciate it more because I didn't have it for 9 years."
