Edge and Randy Orton were destined to clash at WrestleMania 36. WWE carefully stitched the storyline since the Royal Rumble 2020 added a good mix of brutality while also making it a personal rivalry.

WWE News: Edge vs Orton at WrestleMania?
Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, Monday night's (Tuesday IST) WWE RAW aired from the WWE Performance Center without any fans. The empty arena did not affect Edge, who was on the show with just one message for 'The Viper'. Edge kicked off the show, speaking directly into the camera as he revealed a new twist to the storyline.
The 46-year-old admitted that two weeks ago, his wife Beth Phoenix was on RAW to announce his second retirement from WWE. However, Randy Orton did not let her complete and what we instead saw was Orton decimating Phoenix with an RKO.
Edge stated Orton attacking his wife made his decision extremely easy. The WWE Hall of Famer went to challenge Randy Orton for a match at WrestleMania 36.
