Lets pretend Edge wasn't forced into retirement because of injury. Lest also ignore the fact that he claimed he was going to retire a year later anyway.
What would Edge be doing now? Who would he be wrestling at SummerSlam? What titles would he have won since his last match with Del Rio?

Ideally at least a tag title run with Christian. I still wish we'd gotten a brief reunion tour with them.

20x world champ. No one in history won/lost a world title is as short of a time span then he did

I'll say 15 time champ, but to be honest...he was losing a ton of momentum in that last year or so. I'd hate to see how generic he would be now, if they didn't randomly turn him heel again.

What I think happens...
He drops the title to Del Rio at Extreme Rules. Christian wins #1 contendership and beats Del Rio for the title at OTL and again at Capital Punishment. The slow heel turn angle happens again, only against Edge instead of Orton. Christian beats Edge at MITB by shady means (say, a low blow when the ref's back is turned). They end up facing in a ladder or TLC match at Summerslam, where Edge wins, only to drop the title to Mark Henry next month.
Orton, though, I think he stays on Raw and feuds with Ziggler. Del Rio also probably stays on Smackdown in this alternate universe. If WWE really had to, I see Miz taking Del Rio's role in the Punk/WWE angle. Likewise, Ziggler takes Miz's role and teams with Truth after winning the feud vs Orton. Survivor Series 2011, Punk beats Miz for the title to start his reign of terror and Cena and Rock beat Ziggler and Truth. Henry beats Show to keep the title and there's probably some Team Edge vs Team Christian type thing.
Edge takes time off after Survivor Series and comes back at the Royal Rumble. He gets in a feud with...Ziggler, let's say. They trade wins at WM and Extreme Rules. After that, he wanders around the uppermidcard for a bit before becoming #1 contender for Punk. Punk beats him in a hell of a match in what I'm sure would've been a great storyline at SummerSlam, and Cena and Big Show have some kinda stipulation match to end their feud. Punk beats him again the next PPV, and after that he turns heel and feuds with Ryback. Ryback beats the hell out of him at Hell in a Cell. More time off. Punk vs Ryback mainevents Survivor Series, and the Shield debut as normal.
Edge comes back first Raw of 2013, still a heel. He then starts feuding with Orton. Orton beats him at WM 29 and after the match, they shake hands, signifying a face turn. Afterwards, he and Christian team up for one last tag run, winning the belts before dropping them to the Shield. Like Christian, he becomes #1 contender for Del Rio's title at Summerslam out of nowhere. In this alternate universe, this Sunday he's about to win his 13th and probably last world title, as a thank-you run.
