The Wright Take: Note that the Umaga/Big Show stare down lasted longer than the match. This feud is your classic big man vs. big man. I'm hoping Umaga gets a manager to do his promos, or they make his start talking. If so, this could be an interesting feud. Both great workers.Backstage, Chavo is talking to Vickie, still wondering who will be Edge's special guest on the Cutting Edge, which is next.
The Cutting Edge
As we get back from commercial, Edge comes out to the ring to a chorus of booos. J.R and Foley are wondering who will Edge's special guest be tonight.
In the ring, a table, ladder and chair is set up. Edge grabs the chair and sits down slowly as the crowd booos.
Edge begins to say that he's been searching for inner peace all week. His life is falling apart, and to add to that, he will have to face The Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell.
The crowd chants "Undertaker". Edge says he has studied footage of Hell in a Cell. All the cruelty, all the pain, all the suffering. All this in the hands of The Undertaker in the Cell. Edge than says that he is comfortable tonight with a table, ladder and chair in the ring.
Then he goes to say who knows someone who can help him get ready for the match. Someone who knows Taker, and who's Hell in a Cell. His guest tonight... MICK FOLEY!
Foley is shocked as the fans chant "Foley". Mick Foley agrees to get in the ring, but is confused. Edge says despite their past, he is a changed man.
Edge then shows Foley a video package of "The Attitude Era". DX, The Rock, Stone Cold... the good ol' days. Then we see The Undertaker and the Hell in a Cell. Highlights of Taker throwing Foley off the Cell are shown. Foley's bloodies and broken body is shown. Will that be the legacy of the Hardcore Legend?
The video ends as the crowd chants Foley. Edge says even after 10 years, he still feels that match, feels what Taker did to him. He then says that it burns Foley inside knowing how that match changed him.
Edge asks for Foley's help to defeat The Undertaker. He says it would be Foley's redemption.
Foley agrees with most of what Edge said, but he says that he still has the word and bond of the fans. "Edge is the greatest Superstar in the WWE" Foley has said, but it means nothing because the fans think he sucks! They see a cheating Edge every week. Foley says he can't help Edge. Only Edge can help Edge Foley says. Mick wants the Edge to find the Edge who sacrifice everything in TLC and all the Hardcore matches.
Foley finishes by saying if The Undertaker sees THIS Edge... he will tear him apart!
Edge looks at Foley and says I understand then hits Foley with the mic! Foley and Edge fight outside the ring. "BANG BANG" Foley yells as he reaches for weapons. After kicking a chair in Foley's face, Edge hits a SPEAR.
Edge than gets back in the ring as he sets up the ladder and table. The crowd is chanting "Undertaker". Foley gets back in the ring, and Edge hits a low-blow and lays him on the table. He now grabs a chair and climbs the ladder. Edge looks psychotic as he jumps... hitting Foley with the chair right through the table.
Foley lays broken as Edge looks down at the destruction.
The Wright Take: This is what makes Edge the best heel in the business. Just showing up gets him heat. The promo was great, but Foley's speech was amazing. One of the best Cutting Edge's in a long long time. Great segment by both men.
"This was the Edge Foley was referring to earlier" J.R says as the show ends.
