Former WWE Champion Edge beat AJ Styles in a stellar match at WrestleMania 38 Sunday. While the contest was great, it didn't live up to fans' high expectations for the bout. Even so, it added another layer to Edge's new character as Damian Priest seems to have joined hands with The Rater R Superstar.
As per Fightful Select, there are plans for Edge to start a new heel stable featuring multiple superstars. Priest was the first to join Edge. It remains to be seen who else will be added to his new stable. Edge's win over Styles might mean that the rivalry between the two men is not yet over.
