message: The opening text of this article clearly states that Adam Copeland is "better known by his ring name Edge." However, multiple move suggestions have been shot down. If he is "better known by his ring name, Edge" his article should be titled Edge (Wrestler). If he is not "better known by his ring name, Edge" it should state he works for World Wrestling Entertainment, where he competes under then ringname Edge.--ProtoWolf 01:15, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

message: When Edge got a legdrop through the ladder at WM 23, he was unable to compete further in the match. Does anyone know if he was booked to win that match, instead of Kennedy? WWE probably had Edge defeat Kennedy for the MITB just to follow WM23's MITB script.
:I believe Edge was still working with an injury when WrestleMania came, so they just wanted to get him out of the match quickly.  Kennedy's MitB loss was due to an injury on his part that's going to require surgery and several months of recovery.  Kennedy was originally booked to defeat The Undertaker tonight ('Taker is also suffering from an injury, which explains his title loss), but obviously those plans had to be scraped once he suffered his injury.

message: I think spoilers should be removed and the heading of Current World heavyweight champion should also be removed until it airs on Friday night because The Undertaker also states that he's the current world champion.. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rc Her (talk • contribs) 06:17, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not a spoiler because they already acknowledged it on ECW, as well as it being all over WWE.com.  Once it's on TV, it's not a spoiler.  It's unnecessary to even call it a spoiler in the article.  What someone SHOULD do, however, is reevaluate the "now a part of the Smackdown brand" comment, because this hasn't been confirmed.  And, quite frankly, the whole brand-extension thing doesn't matter any more.  I mean, Matt Hardy has always been on the Smackdown "roster," but this hasn't stopped him from going as far as actually being a champion on Raw. VelvetKevorkian 06:49, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think this link will confirm that he's officially on the  Smackdown brand. He was taken off of the Raw page earlier today & was moved to the Smackdown roster, obviously because they need a main event star since Undertaker, Batista & Mr Kennedy are injured. It also isn't a spoiler as they broke into ECW with a scroll saying Breaking News: Edge is the new World Heavyweight Champion & to go to wwe.com for more information. So officially the WWE created a spoiler for their own product.--Hndsmepete 22:05, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Since WWE has already acknowledged the title change on their website and on ECW, Wikipedia precedent suggests we should remove the spoiler tags. Jeff Silvers 00:23, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's also in the official preview for Smackdown.  I went ahead and fixed it, and please nobody change it back, it is in no way, shape or form a spoiler. VelvetKevorkian 03:38, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  WWE Smackdown Versus Raw 2007 

message: Now iv seen on Edge's article that he has held all the major championship from raw and smackdown. But the united states title was apart of WCW at the time, not the WWE. he won it in 2001 from kurt angle during the ECW/WCW invasion, but it wasn't from WWE! there wasn't even a brand extension until 2002, until 2003, that's when the u.s. title became active. But does the WCW u.s. title count as a WWE u.s. title? Dro Boy june 17, 2007 18:34.
:wwe.com considers the lineage to be all for the same title (see here: http://www.wwe.com/inside/titlehistory/unitedstates/).  At the time, the title was owned by the WWF since it had acquired the appropriate WCW assets, and Edge was an employee of WWF at the time, therefore there's no reason why he shouldn't claim to have held the US title. As far as I am aware he's never worked significantly for WCW, so there's no way it could have been an official WCW title, only an official WWF one.  --Dave. 22:42, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It doesn't really matter whether the title was won on Raw or on Smackdown - he's won the US Title.  In 2001 when he won it, the Title was owned by WWF, it was only a WCW title in name.  WWE considers the title to have consecutive lineage, but with a break from the time it was united with the Intercontinental Title (by Edge?) until it was re-instated as a "secondary" title on Smackdown.  The primary titles have switched brands, so which brand the title "belongs" to is pretty much irrelevant. --Dave. 23:01, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: ONLY WWE.com or a a WWE TV show is a good enough source for this to go into the article. If it's announced at the Smackdown tapings tonight and not anywhere else, it must stay out of the article unitl Smackdown airs. No spoilers, rumors or speculation.

replies: text: That is complete rubbish. Only when WWE airs? WWE says he is going out with the general manager of smackdown. WWE said Vince McMahon was dead. Do you realise that when WWE goes on air, it is a STORY? WWE should NEVER be used as factual information in any wrestling article when it comes to wrestlers personal lives including details such as injuries.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.203.111.30 (talk) 22:47, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: When an injury is kayfabe, it is blaringly obvious (See Cena vs. Umaga before RR06). This was a real injury sustained. They don't vacate titles due to KAYFABE injuries. Only a real, legitimate injury does that. Most of WWE.com is in kayfabe, but they are reliable for their own storyline-related issues and for things like suspensions and injuires. For personal lives though? No.

thread_title:  Edge Injury 

message: Is it worth mentioning in the article that, not including the Hardcore Championship (due to the 24/7 rule), that Edge is the most decorated wrestler in WWF/E history? He's won 21 titles (including the WCW US title), which is more than others such as Triple H, Stone Cold, Hulk Hogan, etc, basically, everyone who I checked. What do you guys think?Kirby17 17:32, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I would argue not, since if you have to specify an exclusion, it isn't very notable. "Most decorated" isn't a notable fact in itself anyway (since there is no specific definition as what counts as being "decorated"), and to me it sounds like he's had his curtains and carpets changed the most times! --Dave. 18:00, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Edge and Hogan

message: According to my records or the WWE's for that matter, Edge has never won the WWE version of the U.S. Title. So whomever put that Edge has won all six major titles in the WWE is wrong. Even though that the WCW version was still highly coveted, it is still false information.
Technically, he has won it in WWE. For whatever reason, WWE recognises all WCW US and Cruiserweight Champions in their history. But I know what you're trying to say.Kirby17 13:46, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The standard wrestler article style is to use their ring name (whether a single word or ring surname) after the initial reference to their birth name. Why is his birth surname used in this article? -- Kevin Browning 23:22, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That's actually incorrect. It is correct to refer to the wrestler by their ring name in the sections about their on-screen persona and career. However, it is correct to use their birth surname when talking about the wrestler's personal life, off-screen issues, career before becoming known as their most famous ring name, and/or injuries. It helps separate the real-life from the scripted character and keeps the articles "out of universe". Nikki311 23:25, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

message: In order to avert a possible edit war, I think it would be appropriate to discuss the legitimacy of Ryder and Hawkins listed as managers to Edge.
As I see it, they are not his managers, they are actually subordinates. They take orders from Edge. They do not speak for Edge, they do not issue orders to Edge at all. Accompanying him to the ring and interfering in his matches does not qualify them as managers, else Hulk Hogan would have half of the nWo listed as his managers, as would Triple H with D-X and Evolution.  Hazardous  Matt  15:04, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Now, I do find it notable that Edge is the leader of this faction, rather than being the usual tag team partner. Is there a way we can come to terms by listing Ryder and Hawkins as subordinates? Perhaps instead of listing them under "Managers" we list them under "Followers" or "Stablemates"?  Hazardous  Matt  15:21, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
