- Retired WWE star Edge (Adam Copeland) recently appeared on a wrestling podcast to discuss his career highlights. Copeland noted that his ability to sell for other opponents was "probably the biggest element of my career" and also likely contributed to him retiring due to injuries in 2011.

Copeland quote: "I think that's probably what I did best (laughs), which is probably why I'm retired. (Early in his career) Deciphering why I was so enamored with Mr. Perfect, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, and Owen Hart, it was 'Oh, wow, look at the way they take stuff. They make everyone look like a million bucks.' And, in turn, they look like a million bucks."
