Vince McMahon Made Edge Worry That He Was Getting His Head Shaved

Edge went through a portion of his career where he had shorter hair, but it was by choice. There was one moment in his WWE career where Vince McMahon made Adam Copeland sweat a bit about his hair situation.

During The Kurt Angle Show, the Olympic Hero had Edge on as a guest. They discussed that hair vs hair match at Judgement Day in 2002, they very match you can see in the video above.

There was some stress throughout the day because Edge thought he was winning the match. That didn’t stop Vince and Shane McMahon from planting seeds that Edge was the one losing his trademark look.

“Well, it was. So, Shane, all day, was trying to convince me that I’m getting my head shaved, getting my head shaved, getting my head shaved. And he will to this day, he will say that I bought it. Now, there might have been a percentage of me that went like, ‘God, this is Vince and these guys, you never know.’ There is that possibility, but I don’t think so, which just goes to show how much has changed, like we literally, I didn’t find out what they actually wanted, like probably four in the afternoon.”

Kurt Angle responded to say, “Yeah, Vince held out; he wanted you to think that you’re getting your head shaved. And you know what, you came up to me and said, ‘I don’t know how I’m going to look with my head bald.'” Obviously, he had a good time with the pre-match build as well. Then Edge responded to say:

“Well, I know what my head feels like. It wouldn’t be pretty; it wouldn’t be pretty. I’d kind of look like, remember that old vampire movie, Nosferatu. That might be me.”

We’ll have to see what Edge is going to do at Money in the Bank, but he already has a match against Seth Rollins at SummerSlam on deck for him. This is an exciting time for WWE fans, but you still never know what Vince McMahon will book along the way. This always adds a bit of unpredictability to the situation. Edge knows that feeling all too well.
