Edge Confirms Original Plans For Hell In A Cell Match With Finn Balor

WWE Hall of Famer Edge has confirmed that his Hell in a Cell showdown with Finn Balor was originally supposed to happen at the Royal Rumble in January. 

The bout ultimately wound up taking place on night two of WrestleMania 39, with the Rated-R Superstar picking up the victory. 

While discussing his programme with the Judgment Day member during a recent appearance on the IMPAULSIVE podcast (filmed before WrestleMania), Edge said: 

"So last year, I was like, if I get to do this character again, this is what I’d like to do and again, I had pitched the idea. I was like, 'If you got me and Bálor, we're missing the opportunity here if we don't do Brood versus Demon and do it in Hell in a Cell'. So initially, it was gonna be at Royal Rumble. I was like, 'Mania. Mania's right around the corner. Maybe we should save it for that'".

The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported in February that the match did not take place at Royal Rumble due to Edge's acting commitments.
