Edge Pulled From WWE SmackDown 1000?


Following this week's episode of SmackDown Live, WWE announced that Edge would return to host a special edition of "The Cutting Edge" next Tuesday as part of SmackDown's 1000th episode.

It looks like the return of a WWE Hall of Famer at SmackDown 1000 may have already been nixed since WWE.com is no longer advertising the talk show segment as taking place. The announcement now redirects to the "Shows" page.

While this doesn't necessarily mean that Edge won't be appearing, it should be noted that he isn't being advertised to appear anywhere else by the WWE or the arena. In addition, the WWE put out a preview today and it made no mention of Edge.

Here is WWE's original announcement of Edge appearing:

Edge returns for a special edition of "The Cutting Edge" at SmackDown 1000

The Rated-R Superstar is coming home.

Edge is returning to host a special edition of his talk show "The Cutting Edge" next Tuesday as part of SmackDown's historic 1000th episode.

The WWE Hall of Famer was responsible for many of the blue brand's greatest moments, whether it was stepping up as one of the SmackDown's premiere Superstars after the initial brand split in 2002, his unforgettable Money in the Bank cash-in on The Undertaker or running roughshod over SmackDown with General Manager Vickie Guerrero in his corner.
