WWE snubs Cope (fka Edge)
Cope (FKA Edge) has left his legacy in WWE after spending almost three decades with the company. He won several championships and featured in blockbuster feuds during his run. However, the company seemingly snubbed him tonight.
The Money in the Bank match and premium live event are among the promotion's most iconic creations. The ladder bout usually features six participants competing for the MITB contract, which grants the winner a title shot at any moment in time for up to a year.
Earlier tonight, before the men's match, WWE aired a video showing the statistics of the iconic match, its past winners, and the competitors who were gunning for the contract this year.
Cope has a great history with the match, as he is the inaugural winner of the Men's Money in the Bank briefcase. Apart from successfully cashing in the contract, he has featured more than once in this iconic match type over the years. However, he was not included in the video package. Not even a cameo was given to the veteran.
This was not the first time that a former WWE Superstar was omitted from a notable video package. However, Cope's exclusion shocked many because of his history with the MITB Ladder Match.
