In a report provided by Fightful Select, FTR (formerly The Revival) claim that Randy Orton flew to Asheville, NC and worked with them to prepare for his match with Edge at Backlash, which was billed as “The Greatest Wrestling Match Ever”. FTR said that Orton wanted to work with the duo to further improve his technical ability.

Dax Harwood added that the team worked with Edge a year before his WWE return, after previously working with Beth Phoenix and Natalya. This was also documented on the WWE Network when Edge returned at the Royal Rumble back in January.

That would have been the first time Edge did wrestling-related bumps after his neck injury, and he had only performed spears. Edge had said that he loved having Beth Phoenix to work with but knew she would likely take it easy on him.
