Disc 2 of Edge’s DVD kicks off with him sat in his “Joey Chair” apologising for the intermission, and plugging disc 2 as his return from injury. He talks about facing Randy Orton, and the upcoming match would prove who carried the Rated RKO tag team a few years later. Then we get a movie trailer about how Edge’s promising career was cut short with his broken neck, and his triumphant return.
