WWE began teasing a rematch between Randy Orton and Edge during Monday night’s WWE RAW broadcast. The company is promoting a “straight up wrestling match” between the two men at the upcoming Backlash pay-per-view event. During a promo to end the show, Orton said he was a better wrestler than Edge and would prove it at Backlash.
While Edge did not respond to the challenge before RAW went off the air this week, the match is expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
