• Last Man Standing Match Set For WrestleMania 36
WWE Hall of Famer Edge kicked off tonight’s RAW from the WWE Performance Center.
Edge said that Beth Phoenix appeared on RAW two weeks ago to announce that he’ll be retiring from in-ring competition once again, but Randy Orton didn’t let her finish.
Edge then challenged Orton to a Last Man Standing match at WrestleMania 36.
"At #WrestleMania… if you got the guts, it's @EdgeRatedR vs. @RandyOrton in a #LastManStanding MATCH!"
