So I guess Edge might be turning heel. According to www.wrestlinginc.com the guess might be right:
"WWE has finally released their promotional poster for the upcoming Raw Brand only Pay Per View in June, Bad Blood. The pay per view takes place on June 13th. The poster features Edge with the enscription "He's Back, Watch Yours." It has a new photo of Edge along with the WWE Bad Blood Logo."
Make of that what you will. A turn on Benoit perhaps?
Wouldn't surprise me..if HHH is gone, they could use another heel in the ranks. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out....and of course, explaining the reasoning of why he would turn.
If he does turn, is he a newfound heel Edge or does he revert back to sarcastic Edge a la 2000? I loved that character, but I don't want to see it without Christian, and I think it's best for both men if that team is not reborn.

It makes perfect sense. They need to move Jericho into the main event scene and with Edge, Benoit, HBK there's no room for another face. So you turn one heel (Edge) and you can enter Jericho into things. Also move Christian up there and you have both Edge & CHristian and Benoit & Jericho who both have a history of working together.

That's hardly what I'd call insider-ing...that's more of a case of looking at the poster and reading into it too much. I'm not saying it couldn't happen, I'm just saying I wouldn't base it off that.
Edge will no doubt ensure the wrath of the champ by following him around and muttering "Here comes Benoit, and he's really mad. Here comes Chris Benoit, and he's really AN-GRY!"
Loved that bit.

I hate that EVERY time a poster comes out, somebody has something STUPID to say about it. Also, that people are gullible enough to BELIEVE it, then drag it over HERE. Also, they ALWAYS have a UK flag in their posts. RARRRRRRRRRRARRRRARRRARRRR.
Here's the deal with posters: WWE advertising folks dream 'em up six or seven months beforehand with the logic of "Hey, people will order a show if they think Edge is on it!".
The Great American Bash poster has Torrie Wilson in an Uncle Sam motif. Does that mean she's gonna become a female version of Kurt Angle???

It's funny that we're talking about how the overcrowded nature of the Raw uppercard may mean an Edge heel turn considering two months ago, Edge was on the roster that *desperately* needs uppercarders. Why the hell did they move the guy in the first place? If it's true that HHH wants to work with him so bad, why didn't they just bring Edge to Raw and replace him with someone like Jericho on Smackdown? It just doesn't make sense.
It's important that in HHH's absense, either HBK or Edge turn heel. For the past six months, WWE has passed up on dozens of perfect opportunities for HBK to turn heel so I don't know if they'll pull the trigger. An Edge heel turn wouldn't have the same kind of effect, but it could rejuvenate a career that is in major need of a boost. As much as I'd like a Jericho heel turn, they might as well stick with what they've got going. So having your face side as Benoit, Jericho, Benjamin, and either Edge or HBK to go up against HHH, Orton, Christian, and either Edge or HBK (not to mention Kane), well, Raw is set for months and months.

Management doesn't care about SD. Raw is the "main show" in their eyes, and SD is just an after thought.
This is probably old news, but I'm new here, so I'll throw my hat in the ring. I hope the WWE doesn't split off a third brand. I don't like the dual brand split as it is now.
