Gaining an Edge
A lot of wrestling fans are disgusted with the current on screen relationship between Edge and Vickie Guerrero. Those fans cite loyalty towards the late Eddie Guerrero for their negative feelings towards the storyline.
However, the fact that this storyline has stirred up so much emotion in the fans means that it is working as planned.
The purpose of this relationship is to make Edge an even better heel. Edge has always been known as a character who is willing to do anything to get to the top. Taking advantage of Vickie Guerrero goes hand in hand with his character.
The marriage proposal is the next logical step. Based on the reactions from the fans, it's a smart move. It's getting people even more upset with Edge.
In a few weeks, you can expect to see another wedding segment on Smackdown.
The majority of wedding segments in wrestling have been absolutely horrible. The recent one with Theodore Long and Kristal Marshall was entertaining, though, but that was mainly because of the other wrestlers involved.
We look forward to Edge's wedding, though, because if there's anyone in the company that can make that segment entertaining, it's Edge. |
Keeping the Edge
The relationship between Edge and Vickie Guerrero is not intended to end with the phrase "happily ever after".
Eventually, Edge is going to reveal that he used Vickie Guerrero's power as Smackdown's General Manager to his advantage. He's going to end up breaking her heart, and the audience will hate him for it. Vickie Guerrero will then turn into a babyface because of the sympathy.
By that time, though, Edge will have a strong stranglehold on the World Heavyweight Champion. Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder will more than likely be holding the WWE Tag Team Championship.
Not sure what the writers are going to do with Chavo Guerrero at that point, though. He could get himself even more heel heat by choosing not to side with his family or WWE can turn him into a babyface by having him stand up to Edge. A feud between the two could headline a pay per view that has a strong Raw main event.
An interesting idea being tossed around is to have Edge find another woman after he dumps Vickie Guerrero. Doing so would give him even more heel heat. Plus, the new eye candy on his arm would gain instant momentum. WWE has been signing a couple of new divas as of late. Any one of them could be used in the same role that Lita used to fill.
Closing Thoughts
Just another step in the right direction for WWE's most entertaining storyline right now. |
