Edge, who is recovering from a torn triceps, recently responded to a comment from NXT manager Robert Stone and asked if Stone could make a match between himself and Finn Balor:
Ok @RobertStoneWWE my man! Let’s collab. Get me a match vs @FinnBalor at Takeover, I only want fuschia m&m’s(they don’t make those, so figure it out), ideas on someone to help me cosplay the pic below, crushed velvet furniture on my bus, oh yeah a bus(everyone has em now) etc etc https://t.co/Jf3AgK0fWJ pic.twitter.com/PlOSpnpWyj

In an interview with the Irish Mirror, Balor commented on a possible match against Edge:
“I would like to address that situation right now, Edge was saying he wanted to face Finn Balor at Takeover so if we could do it at Takeover Dublin all the better. An absolute legend in the the ring, but what an absolute gent and a true pro outside the ring. I’ve always said it to both him and Christian that when they retired, I met them at a couple of media appearances and I said: ‘lads, you two are like how I’d look to transition out of wrestling – to carry yourself with such professionalism – and to see him (Edge) back is fantastic. Getting the chance to wrestle with him would be even better.”
NXT UK Takeover: Dublin was originally scheduled for April 26th but was moved to October 25th due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The status of the October date is up in the air and Edge is unlikely to be recovered from injury by that time anyways.
