Brian Myers Admits He’d Be Sad If Edge Retired On SmackDown Tonight

Brian Myers is grateful for the time he got to spend together with Edge while in WWE.

IMPACT Wrestling‘s Brian Myers recently sat down with Alistair McGeorge of METRO. When asked about the rumors that Edge might retire tonight on SmackDown, Myers admitted that he would be sad, but he was devastated when he retired the first time.

“Of course, I’d be sad – I was devastated the first time he retired. I was devastated to the point of tears,” Brian Myers said. “I was literally crushed to the point of tears. So I think anything past that point where he thinks he was forced into retirement. I think this has just been icing on the cake if you will, to get some more Edge matches when you thought they were long gone.”

When asked if he believes Edge will truly retire this evening, Myers said he wants him to be at peace and comfortable with what he’s done in his career.

“I don’t know what I think anymore, and I don’t think it matters,” Brian Myers said. “I want him to be at peace and comfortable with his career and his accomplishments. And be happy with himself to walk away when it’s time to walk away – if it is time to walk away.”

Brian Myers: To me, 2008, Edge, Adam Copeland is the best wrestler in the entire world

The Edgeheads sat under the learning tree of Edge in 2008, which is certainly something Myers is forever grateful for.

“Matt [Cardona] and I, the experience that we got with Edge, I don’t think anyone in this business has ever had,” Brian Myers said. “I guess maybe you can count Cody [Rhodes] and Teddy [DiBiase Jr] when they were in Legacy as well because it was kind of like a mirrored experience.

“But to me, 2008, Edge, Adam Copeland is the best wrestler in the entire world. We literally followed him everywhere he went for a year, and watched all of his matches from ringside. Saw what it takes to be a top guy, and a champion, day in and day out. An instrumental, life-changing, life-altering learning experience that we’ll forever be grateful for.”
