Edge picked up a win in the main event of tonight’s WWE Smackdown over Sheamus, and he told the crowd after the show it was his last match in Toronto. Friday’s episode saw the WWE Hall of Famer defeat Sheamus in the main event for what he previously said was his last match on his WWE contract. Following the show, he addressed the live crowd and while he didn’t say he was done in the ring, he did say that tonight was his final match in his home city.
“What I can say is that this is my last one in front of y’all,” Edge said (per Fightful). “I don’t think I can make it another full run to get here again for a match. I’m just being honest with you, but don’t let that be a downer because, man, what an experience you all gave me. I will never forget it. I will never forget it. When I’m 84 years old, and I don’t remember much, I’m damn sure going to remember this. Thank you.”

Of all the comrades that e'er I had
They are sorry for my going away..
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I'll gently rise and I'll softly call
Good night and joy be with you all 🥃 pic.twitter.com/y0fXbZaCkJ— Sheamus (@WWESheamus) August 19, 2023
