"Adam always inspired me" - Beth Phoenix on Edge's current run in WWE
Beth Phoenix has commented on The Rated-R Superstar stepping back into the ring after a nine-your hiatus.
The two stars have had a very successful career in WWE, and at the Royal Rumble, they'll add another accolade to their long list of accomplishments. The Grit Couple will team up for the first time ever to face The Miz and Maryse at the upcoming premium live event.
During a recent interview with News18, Beth Phoenix was asked for her thoughts on Edge's second run in WWE and if it has been a motivating factor for her to make a comeback.
"So, Adam [Edge] always inspired me, long before this run with the WWE. (...) He did hundreds of auditions, went to LA for pilot seasons. I think the one thing to mention here is Adam’s wrestling career, all that he ever wanted to do from the time he was little, was torn away from him. He did not make the choice to walk way. He had this thing he had earned, taken and so he had to adjust. He did not let it distract him, he did not spiral down; he had grief and he dealt with it and then he funnelled that energy in a positive way," Phoenix said.
