Following WWE WrestleMania Backlash, Edge unveiled a new haircut, and wrestling fans shared their thoughts.
WWE’s premium live event, WrestleMania Backlash, took place on Sunday, May 8. The card featured three rematches from WrestleMania 38, one of them being Edge vs. A.J. Styles. Much like at WWE’s biggest show of the year, Edge picked up the win, but not without some help from newest Judgment Day member, Rhea Ripley.
On the May 9 episode of Monday Night Raw, Edge walked to the ring with Ripley and Damian Priest. That is when fans noticed that the former “Rated R Superstar” had cut off his long hair in exchange for a slicked-back, shorter hair.
Wrestling fans react to Edge’s haircut
Those who were watching Raw or just so happened to be following the results on their Twitter feeds saw the Hall of Famer’s new haircut and decided to share their thoughts on it.

At WrestleMania Backlash, Styles looked like he was closing in on a victory with a top rope move, but he became distracted when Priest brawled with Finn Balor at ringside. That is when an individual wearing a hood and mask pulled him off the top rope. That allowed Edge to put Styles in a crossface choke for the win. That is when the individual revealed themselves to be Ripley.
On Raw, Edge was at ringside as he watched Ripley defeat former tag team partner Liv Morgan. Ripley attacked Morgan after the match.
Afterward, Edge interfered in a match between Priest and Balor by hitting the former two-time NXT Champion with a spear. Judgment Day then furthered their attack on Balor and Styles, standing tall on the entranceway.
So, what are your thoughts on the leader of Judgment Day’s new hairdo?
