Here is another installment of "my thoughts".  And today I am talking Edge.  Edge is called The Rated R superstar, but does he really life up to that?

I think he does life up to that name, but just recently.  When Edge became a main event star, he got called that name.  I would say before that, he was never the Rated R superstar, but now he is.  His character is so controversial.  He does things that really is rated R.  Now I have a bone to pick with WWE and the WWE audience.

First, I would like to start with the WWE.  Edge has been in the WWE for around 15 years.  With a decade and a half, he is a veteran.  Anyway, WWE only made Edge a main event star just in 2005.  That was only 3 years ago.  3 YEARS!  Now I am glad he became a main event star in my era and when I was watching wrestling, but I am angry that he just got what he deserves a couple years back.  Undertaker rose to main event status less than a year.  Taker has been in the WWE for 18+ years.  The Rock has become a main event star in less than a year.  Why hasn't Edge gotten to that status in that time?  Well I really don't know for sure, but it is really upsetting.  I am glad that Edge hasn't become a main event star in less than a year or a couple years because during that time, he teamed up with his brother, Christian.  They were tag team champs and became the biggest tag team in that era and had some of the best tag matches that anyone will ever see.  But after that, he should have been the top star.

With that being said, I have a bone to pick with the WWE audience.  Now many people are fans of Edge, myself included.  I have seen fans that hate Edge.  They say that he is the worst star ever and yada yada.  They truly don't respect him.  Some people can't stand him and they say he should be fired or leave.  Now if you say that, you really don't know what you are talking about.  The only reason why people say that is because they are into the storyline and character.  They don't like his character because he is a heel, but if he was a baby face then everyone would cheer for him.  I am personally fine with that.  They can cheer for whoever they want.  But they shouldn't go as far by saying he is the worst and he should be fired.  People say they know so much about wrestling, and they say Edge is the worst and so on.  They are just full of it.  If they took a look at those ladder and TLC matches he was in with the hardy's and Dugley boys, then they would see how good he is.  He entertained the fans like no other and really put on a show.

I have to say that Edge THE person who revolutionized the ladder match.  He took it to incredible heights and no one could do what he could do in those ladder matches.  He is simply the best in them and surely beats HBK, Jeff Hardy, Y2J and many, MANY others.

After that is out of my system, I want to share some information on what I think about Edge and not about WWE or the fans.  I was never a real fan of Edge years ago.  I saw him as a superstar.  I never saw him good.  I liked him in matches, but never really appreciated it.  When he won the world title for the first time in 2005, I thought he would be a terrible champion and really couldn't do anything.  I was wrong.    The storyline where I saw him as great was the Vickie, Edge, and Undertaker storyline that happened this past year.  I recently got "The Ladder Match" DVD.  I watched quite a few of matches on there.  I saw matches of Edge and I realized what he has done for WWE and what he has been through.  Seeing that, I am just surprised that he wasn't a major champion before.  Even though I see Edge as a veteran, I see him winning many more major titles.  He could win tag titles, US titles, and the WWE title.  I don't see him mush going to fight for the US title or Intercontinental title.  He is a main event caliber star and if he did face for the US title, I would be extremely upset and I would think that would be a disgrace.  I am really getting to like Edge now.  I can't wait until he comes back.  He is getting to be a star that is in controversial storylines.  I think Edge is one of the best, or THE best, performer in WWE history.  I say performer because he really was in great matches and did some great moves in them.  One that I will never forget is Edge spearing Jeff Hardy on a ladder while Jeff was hanging off the title.  Like I say performer and not wrestler because he really made people show their emotions.  Either by making the fans dumbfounded with his moves, or making us upset with staying with Vickie or Lita, or even making us cheer by cheating on Vickie.

Bottom line, Edge is one of the best there is and I don't think people realize it.  I am trying to get across what Edge has done.  Just like me, I want people to see Edge's talent.  I am mad that I didn't see it sooner and mad because he didn't become a main event star earlier.  I am happy that I see Edge's talent now and that he become a main star in my era.  Keep going Edge and continue to make my proud by being the most UNRECONGIZED star in WWE history!  That is all for "my thoughts" for now but please check back to my others and wait to see my others coming soon.  If you have any suggestions for a future "My thoughts" blog, then feel free to message me.  Anyway that is my thoughts on this topic, but what are yours?  Talk to you next time!
