However, we felt that Edge was too cool to not tell people about.So we compiled a list of the top five things you probably didn’t know about The Rated R Superstar. Enjoy!
#1 He cheated on his second wife with Lita
As many people know by now, Edge and Lita had a thing about ten years ago. Lita cheated on Matt Hardy with Edge while Hardy was out with an injury. Lita and Edge, always being friends due to the closeness of the Hardys and E&C, got to see a lot of each other alone quite often.
What you may not know was that Edge was actually married at this time to a woman named Lisa Ortiz. Before this, he was married to Val Venis’ sister Alanah Morley. The marriage only lasted a few years before he got divorced. He then managed to get married again, this time to Ms. Ortiz in 2004.
Weirdly enough, it wasn’t too long after that Edge ended up in a secret affair with Lita.
Once the relationship of Edge and Lita went public, Lisa Ortiz would then go on Matt Hardy’s website at the time and blast both Edge and Lita over the situation. If you recall, Hardy was using social media and the internet as a whole to blast Lita and Edge quite often. So it made all the sense in the world for Hardy to allow Edge’s wife to come on.
Of course, the love triangle with Edge, Hardy, and Lita was one of the biggest stories WWE has ever had. It was mainly due to the real life events playing out on television.
At the time, it might have been THE biggest story in the WWE. Weirdly through it all, Edge actually was cheating on his wife. So Lita wasn’t the only cheater between them. It is something very few people know about the Rated R Superstar. Interestingly, this fact was never used in the angle on WWE programming. In fact, few people knew Edge was even married twice before.
