During the latest Legion of RAW episode with Dr. Chris Featherstone, Vince Russo voiced his concerns about Superstars returning to the ring. Russo spoke about those Superstars who were forced to retire due to career-threatening injuries, and he named Daniel Bryan, Edge, and Christian.
While Russo understood the power of passion, the former WWE Head Writer said that he’d never grasped why some talent like Christian, Edge, and Daniel Bryan would want to risk their health and futures to wrestle again. Russo explained that the wrestlers are just one wrong move away from spending their entire lives in wheelchairs.
Here’s what Vince Russo had to say:
if you need the money, that’s one thing: Vince Russo on the possible motivations behind the returns of Edge, Christian, and other wrestlers
Russo added that some wrestlers return with the intention of financially support their families, but that isn’t the case with recent examples. Daniel Bryan has a life-long WWE job irrespective of whether he wrestles.
Russo believes that both Edge and Christian are in healthy financial positions. He also couldn’t fathom why the veteran Superstars weren’t thinking about their families and children.
While Edge is reportedly set for a WrestleMania 37 match against Roman Reigns, we have no updates on WWE’s plans for Christian.
