On this week's RAW, Edge closed off the show, where he spoke about his journey and confirmed that he was "back home", to the WWE. He spoke of the Superstars he faced in the ring and that he would meet them more in the ring.
Orton interrupted Edge's speech, and he praised the returning legend, for helping him in his younger years. He proposed the reunion of the Rated RKO team, but quickly turned on Edge, landing an RKO on him. He then went on attack him with a steel chair to Edge's head, which left the WWE Hall of Famer laying helplessly in the middle of the ring.
