For me i've never cared for him, I've always like Xstian tho'.. Y? Well I liked him on the mic.. I never cared for either as far as wrestling/entertaining goes in the ring.. But I gotta admit I like Xstian more than edge.. But people really love him, and I'm not sure why! I mean he was injured more than he wrestled when it came to singles bouts.. & now the HOF? Really?

Your probably gonna get flamed to high heavens for saying that but I do agree with you. I never cared for Edge either.

Hes freaking amazing to me. He set the bar as far as achievements go. He was great in the ring but yeah he had to take time off in 2007 and 2008 because he was getting burnt out. The bad neck probably held him back more than you realize.

I agree for the most part. I don't mind him but I've always thought Christian was a lot better.

When I was younger I hated him when he broke Matt and Lita up, but I've grown to like him again. Not nearly as much because how could you do that to your best friend? But I still respect him.
Although I've always preferred Christian as well, don't get me wrong I love Edge but I've always liked Christian more.

Well I've actually met Edge at an auto signing and he is incredibly friendly and nice so I can't say anything bad about the guy. Even if I never met him I would still be a fan because I also find him to be very entertaining, talented and charismatic, but to each his own.

To me he was one of the few guys that made promos believable. He had so much passion on the mic and in the ring.

Edge was pineer in tag team wrestling in the 90's as well has revolutionizing the ladder and tlc matches. He always had a great passion in everything he did, and had an energy that can't be matched. He was able to make the transition from face to heel without missing a beat. He was also able to cut a damn good promo. He's also has had classic on top of classic matches wether it was all thoes tag team ladder matches, or againts christian, eddie, kurt angle, rey, undertaker, cena, jericho, etc.
Wether you like him or not there is no denying he has had a Hall Of Fame career.
Multiple Intercontential title reigns, 11 time world title reigns, all thoes tag title reigns on of which he held with Hulk Freaking Hogan!
King of the ring winner Royal rumble winner First money in the bank winner, first to cash it in twice.
Like him or not he belongs in the HOF

Christian is better IMO as well. Edge is loved because he's so entertaining, in many the same ways Christian is, great talker, worker, and character.

1) Being a fan of the guy is not a "love affair"
2) Who the hell is Xtian?
3) Edge is my all time favorite superstar, bar none. You want to know what the "love affair" is? Here's a few reasons for me personally: Edge was obviously one of those passionate fans, who grew up watching wrestling, and finally saw his dream realized and became a professional wrestler himself. That right there makes him relatable to other fans. Also, he was extremely entertaining in the ring and out of it. His passion for his career showed through in every aspect of it, and made people respect him, and in turn, made them like him. He was incredibly believable in whatever it was he was doing, be it as a bad ass "Rated R" Heel, or the loveable, hokey face character. He busted his ass and put his body on the line night in and night out for over a decade to get where he got. He deserved every accomplishment that came his way. Hall of Fame included. Edge MADE WWE for me. I can honestly say that I was heartbroken and even shed a few tears when I found out he was retiring, and can't express how glad I am for him that he's getting recognized in the Hall of Fame. Clearly I'm not the only one who thinks he's one of the greats.
Agree or disagree, I don't care. Edge is, and forever will be my number 1. EDGEHEAD FOREVER!

He was a good character and very exciting in the ring. Not much to explain. Also - lots of people watched his entire career from beginning to finish. So people have grown with him.
I always liked Christian more than Edge personally though.
p.s. - Why are you spelling Christian's name with an X?

I feel Edge to be one of my favorite WWE superstars of all times. He's charismatic, entertaining, puts on great matches/bumps, spot etc. He's great on the mic.
Amazing promos/tributes, Edge has it all and to think if it wasn't for that neck injury a few years ago, he might have possibly been entertaining us till this day. There's no possible way anyone could have the least amount of respect for the man unless it was something personal and no he wasn't injured more then he wrestled and for the most part your argument on why you don't like him as much as Christian is such a weak statement your points are well though out to be honest.
Edit: I do respect your opinion and I'm not upset I do think Christian is a great wrestler as well.

I lost a lot of respect after the Edge/Hardy/Lita scenario. I just have never been able to support a guy who would do that to his wife and best friend.

Christian is one of those guys, who're good, but not "that good." Edge had everything that was needed to accomplish what he did, there are plenty of reasons why one has had more success than the other, and it's nothing political. Edge was just that much better than Christian and about 80-90% of the guys in the back.

The divorce rate is higher than the marriage success rate. As far as Edge goes, he did just about everything there was to do in the business. His character was always entertaining. The Rated R gimmick was awesome, a lot of times he was just a transitional World Champion, but he was a believable Heel World Champion, doing whatever it took to win. He was always evolving his character, something that some guys can't do, or just refuse to do. He did have a lot of injuries, but he still put on good matches, and was in the better storylines.

You people seriously don't get the Xtian/Christian spelling... Im guessing you haven't seen Christmas spelled as Xmas...
Huge Edge fan but Christian has always been the better half of E&C in my opinion, Better than Edge in every way and now its Christians time to main event and win more World Titles.
