Like any wrestler from Canada, Edge has my respect as an in-ring performer, but his real-life affair with Lita and his spat with Matt Hardy (who I don't care for, by the way) was used by WWE to shove him down the fans' throats, which really tore away much of my respect for Edge, to be honest. Him going along with WWE's policy that controversy sells made me lose respect for him, and Edge being a great wrestler made it even worse for me. His Rated R gimmick was just plain sick and indecent to see.
@CMY187 I gotta agree with you, I found WWE playing it up as just being HORRENDOUSLY tasteless. Even if we smarks know what's going on they REALLY did NOT need to address it in a storyline and DEFINITELY not have it play out like it did.
Thank you Mikko for doing a video of my favourite wrestler. It is great that Edge and Christian borrow each others moves, both in WWE and TNA. And btw, the You Think You Know Me theme is confusing as hell.
In this variation of a powerbomb, the attacking wrestler puts his opponent in position, then slams him down in a sitting fashion. This is also called the Sit-down Powerbomb.
@HelixKarlos It's perfectly okay, the only way to learn is to hear new things. lol Little tip, don't trust too blindly in what the announcers say, Cole STILL can't tell a Sidewalk Slam and a Side Slam apart the right way around. :P Merry Christmas and hope the hobby treats you well.
@SinisterSnake95 Fingers crossed that he'll pull a Shawn Michaels and heal better than any doctor woulda thought he could, then come back for another amazing run.
One hell of a video from one hell of a Youtuber for one hell of a wrestler!
This was a brilliant list saw a lot of the Edge vs lance Storm two Great Canadian Wrestlers and two of my faves .
Plus he has one of the most varied move sets of all time from powerbombs to diving clotheslines to big boots the list goes on love th Edge -O- Matic on Evan Bourne plus his Big Boot is very good and suits him because of his height. Loved that gourdbuster from the top rope but my favourite move his Edgecution.
@TableTopWrestling I'm glad to hear you liked the vid. :) Edge was a tremendous wrestler and absolutely deserves every minute I spent on this video to pay tribute to the talent he showed us.
Great list. Did Edge actually use the Overhead Belly-to-belly outside his program with Angle? It always seemed that he only used that move on Angle as kind of a "I can do this too" moment.
Also would have been nice to see the older version of the Spiral, back when he swept the leg with the move.
@gametosave I think it mighta just been an 'anything you can do I can do better', but heck, with 40 slots I could afford it. lol And he DID get pretty crazy height on it. As for the Spiral, yea, I really wish I'd found more material of it, but I just did not see him doing it. Shoulda maybe dug around more for old matches of decent quality, but i did spend like three weeks from starting gathering material for the vid to finishing it. lol I wuz slow. :P
@SuperDragonICP I debated that with myself at length, but the fact is that it's gotten him most of his career's most important victories and is VERY flexible. I DID fail to include a clip I meant to of him spearing Jeff Hardy off a ladder, which woulda nicely showcased that.
@SuperDragonICP Well he can hit it on any opponent facing him from most any position, be it standing facing them, as they're getting up, as they're running at him, as they're diving at him, while they're on ladders, hanging on titles... Not the biggest fan of the impact, but again, had to call it like I see it. lol
@SuperDragonICP The Spiral being an all too common move these days and me not actually seeing him use it in a match in the last, what, half a decade kinda cost that move points. lol
@lecmg acctually no he won't be inducted to HoF in 2012 he will be inducted into HoF in 2013 where WM 29 and HoF ceremony class of 2013 are held,he will be inducted in the night before wreslemania with trish since she is a canadian,and he will probably say something in that WM but not sure
It's a shame alot of these moves got dropped from his moveset over the years, like the downward spiral and the electric chair. Also i think some moves deserved a higher spot on the list like the spiining wheel kick and the big boot, they are simple but effective, always get a good crowd reaction and are regularly seen in his moveset. Other than that, this is a great video highlighting one of the best wrestlers in history, well done :)
@wheelerl1992 They both started out REALLY low on my list, but I boosted them upwards some. lol Just kinda came down to how high I perceived their impact and with the wheelkick there's the fact that it's kinda hit and miss on the execution. I picked the best clips I could find, but most times I've seen him do it more recently, not that great looking. Guess I just tend to prefer grapples. lol
@Rkomegakillz Thanks and I know whatcha mean, he'd just returned from his neck surgery when I started watching wrestling actively and I never even really considered the possibility of him having to leave for good.

Sitout powerbomb
In this variation of a powerbomb, the attacking wrestler puts his opponent in position, then slams him down in a sitting fashion. This is also called the Sit-down Powerbomb.
As usual, the terms are interchangeable.
