Edge To Smackdown: 5 Things We Want To See Happen

1. The Royal Rumble

Edge was the 2010 Royal Rumble winner. Returning from an injury and sporting a giant caveman beard, he ran to the ring, first eliminating his eventual Wrestlemania opponent Chris Jericho, and then surviving to the end.But can our Rated R Superstar win the Royal Rumble two times in a row? Sounds like a feat that is impossible, but it has been done three other times.
1990 and 1991 were won by the immortal Hulk Hogan.
1995 and 1996 were won by the legend Mr.WrestleMania Shawn Michaels
1997 and 1998 were won by the icon Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Does Edge have the chops to stand among those three? Hard to say. These days, you would think a challenge like that could only be beaten by John Cena or Triple H.Speaking of those two, this year's Royal Rumble takes place in Boston, Massachusetts, the home state of Mr. John Cena. It is very possible that Beantown may see the franchise player once again win a Royal Rumble, if he is not dethroned by a returning Triple H.But the question is, who will be the Heavyweight Champion come 2011? My guess is…
2. The Face Turn

Edge has always been a bit of an anti-hero, even back in the day of E & C as tag team champs. Sure, they may have mocked your city when you were there, but they did it with comedy.The closest he got to truly being on the dark side was his allegiance with Vickie Guerrero, those dark days when no one enjoyed watching the Rated R Superstar smooch with a self-proclaimed cougar. After all, the images of the beautiful Lita and Edge having their in-ring celebration still danced wonderfully in our heads.But in a true Face move, when Edge showed up on Friday Night Smackdown, he was introduced by the General Manager Teddy Long. His music hit, out he came through the smoke, and as he soaked in the cheers of the fans, he shook Teddy’s hand. Sporting his sunglasses, he hit the ring and mounted the ropes to allow for that Kodak moment and pose for the fans. He then went on to mock Swagger and his eagle mascot—I know its name, but as I agree with Edge and find it stupid, I’m not writing it here.What’s humorous is that over on Raw when CM Punk showed up, he also got a huge response and cheers from the crowd for heading back to the Monday night show. To cement his position as a heel, however, he proceeded to beat babyface Evan Bourne to a pulp after he had already received a victory.
3. The War on Stupidity

Edge has declared war.
All things that are stupid within the WWE are forewarned: digital general managers, eagle mascots, Michael Cole, and apparently scarves. The thing is, there are a lot of stupid things within the WWE. How far will Vince let Edge go with this?
We’ll see, but I see a whole lot of potential feuds brewing for Edge to dive headfirst into.This move by the WWE is genius. While they could easily read on fansites what we don’t like and then just change it or make it disappear (e.g. the great Khali), they have now given the WWE Universe fans a voice. Edge will be the one to say “apparently the Undertaker's weakness is a flashlight in a vase?” It’s really just a matter of time.In the following slides, let's look at the upcoming pay-per-views and potential targets of Edge's War on Stupidity.
4. Alberto De Rio

At the past pay-per-view, we got a taste of the two of them going back and forth on the mic, and we saw the energy that was happening, obviously building towards something.
I’m becoming a fan of Alberto. I see him being very similar to the late, great Eddie Guerrero(RIP) in his mannerism, his moves—he even sounds like him a bit. A battle with Edge has amazing possibilities. Their skill sets match nicely, and I see them putting on strong, solid matches with back-and-forths as quick and slamming as their work on the mic.Alberto could be Edge's opponent for TLC and win the IC belt, putting gold around the waist of Alberto and moving Edge on to the heavyweight title—or at least to the next big pay-per-view, which is one of my personal favorites…
5. Christian

The members of one of the greatest tag teams of all time end up at war with one another, and finally, it’s for the gold and on the grandest stage of them all.
The dynamic on the microphone would be unparalleled, the shots back and forth claiming who carried who over the years. A battle of "brothers" and the destruction of the Franchise that was Edge and Christian, created 13 years ago. This match would be just as important to watch as whomever was taking on Undertaker's streak. Knowing how each of them work and how they work together, they would tear down the house.
Who’s the face and who’s the heel?
Who walks out alive?
What would be the stipulation?
 So many possibilities and the greatest winners of all would be us, the fans.
