After the match, Edge — whose real name is Adam Copeland — took some time to address fans, thanking Sheamus and his longtime trainer, Ron Hutchison, who was seated in the front row.
“I don’t know what the future holds, I really don’t. I’ve got to sit at home this week, lick my wounds, talk to my family and see what they want me to do,” he said. “But what I can say, Toronto, is thank you… Thank you for being the city that I have always been proud to represent, that I’ve always been proud to be announced from. And I came out here in full-on Maple Leafs gear, pandering to all of ya,” he quipped.“But no matter where I make my main residence, this [Toronto] is always first in my heart.
“Toronto, what I can say is this is my last time in front of y’all. I don’t really think I can make it another full run to get here again for a match — I’m just being honest with you,” he shared. “But don’t let that be a downer,” he concluded. “‘Cause man, what an experience you all gave me. I will never forget it. And when I’m 84 years old and don’t remember much, you’re damn sure I’m gonna remember this. Thank you.”
