I remember reading somewhere Edges contract came up with WWE in 2007. That being said, could you see Edge joining TNA?
If he wasnt happy at that point in 07? Deffinatly, no doubt. Mainly because of Rhino, Christian, and Kurt being there.
If hes being pushed at that point...unno...

I think he would If the money was right or if he got fed up with being cannon-fodder to DX and John Cena.

There are definite benefits to it. The man lives in the Tampa area, as many do, plus his best friend from childhood and former traveling partner is there.

If TNA were by chance to work out a deal with Edge and somehow score Jericho like the rumors are suggesting, I'd have no reason BUT to make it a habit to watch every Thursday. With names like Christian and Angle remaining on the roster, they would have damn near 50% of the best guys the WWE has had in the last 5 years.

But even "good" TNA money would be a tiny fraction of what Edge has been able to make in WWE, so a lot would depende on whether he valued lifestyle > money or vice versa.

If he actually refused WWE then sure I could see it, but I don't see that happening. They've made him champion, he's still in a main event program now, and to be honest I see him main eventing Mania as champion again coming up.
So could he? Sure. Will he? Really doubt that.

If Jericho, Edge, and Chrtistian were to somehow be on TNA all at the same time, I would be forced to watch it. I don't care how many reverse battle royals Vince Russo makes. I would have to watch.

It could happen i guess, i mean who could've predicted a year ago that Angle would end up in TNA ?
But i see Edge sticking in WWE for a long time to come but then again i could be wrong.It's kind of like when WCW and the original ECW was around and people would talk about who'd jump ship where.These were exciting times and we kind of have the same thing happening.

Would not be no "tiny fraction" but at the least it would be half if they gave him a Sting like deal. No way is Edge is making a million a year in WWE...

If TNA sign Edge we will have a new monday night war. I wouldn't make that jump just yet. They have to get a larger fan base before attempting such a thing. And I don't think it would be good business to go up against Monday Night Raw and Monday Night Football. I do think it would be a good signing for them as long as they don't forget to push their own stars. If they keep pushing the former WWE guys, it makes the rest of the roster look weak. That being said, it would be a good signing for them, I guess. I don't think that Vince would allow it to happen if someone pointed out to him that the other organization was starting to gain in popularity.

It won't be happening anytime soon. Edge has been WWE's MVP this year, even if they failed to properly capitalize upon his first WWE title reign in January.
He's got all the tools to be on top of WWE for a while, but he owes none of this to any backstage politics. He genuinely worked his way to the top.

Remember, his dream was to be WWF/E champion before TNA ever existed, and it came true..twice. Btw, since Edge and Christian are good friends, do you think Vince gave Edge a title run in part because Christian went to TNA? I'm not saying it was the only reason, but it might have been in the back of his head.

Edge is still the top-heel on RAW and has held the gold a couple times. That is a big deal, even if it does mean jobbing to Cena/DX. Cage never got past midcard except to be jobber-to-the-stars at the end of an occasional RAW or Smackdown.
Cage had much more reason to jump than Edge. I think Edge stays-put. Anyway, with Angle already in TNA I see WWE sweetening the pot if they had to to keep Edge.
Jericho could be a possiblity for TNA. He would only have to work like four days a month, which would give him the opportunity to keep trying to act and do music.
