And also share your favorite moment, least favorite moment, what you expect from them next year and what you don't expect.
I'll start with Edge.
Even though, he's a part-timer I have to give his year a solid eight. He came back and won the Rumble, had some amazing promos leading up to "Wrestlemania", him, Reigns and Bryan ended up tearing the house down at the granddaddy of them all, had a really good feud with Seth Rollins with equally great promos, and honestly I don't mind his year ending with a feud with the Miz as it appears that it's likely going to build to a husbands and wives match at "Wrestlemania" next year.
With that said, my favorite moment was him and Christian embracing during the Royal Rumble, and my least favorite moment is not really a moment, but that fact that we didn't get an Edge and Christian reunion against the Usos. I also didn't like how his feud with Orton's was blown-off on Raw without any pop or circumstance. I know the industry wasn't begging for a third high-profile match between the two, but considering how intense their rivarly was during the first half of the previous year. I wouldn't have been completely opposed to their it concluding at "Elimination Chamber" in either a Stretcher or Ambulance Match, or a two-out-of-three falls match (traditional or each fall having a different stipulation) with Edge's "Wrestlemania" title shot on the line.
As for two-thousand and twenty-two, obviously he's going to begin the year continuing feuding with the Miz, which I expect to lead to the aforementioned Maryse and the Miz vs. Beth Phoenix and Edge at "Wrestlemania XXXVIII", which honestly kind of sounds like it'll be fun and I can't imagine him not being absolutely thrilled about working with his wife. He'll continue working a part-time schedule, but I expect for him to have a major program with Kevin Owens leading into SummerSlam, and I also expect (or maybe it's more-so hope) for him to have at least an one-off match on Raw or Smackdown with Sami Zyan. I also wouldn't be surprised if during next year's draft he ends up back on Smackdown again and leads Team Smackdown in the brand elimination match at "Survivor Series".
With that said, I know A.J. Styles is on his "bucket list" of wrestlers to wrestle or have a program with, but I don't expect for that to happen and I don't expect for him to try to pursue the WWE Universal or WWE Championship either either.
