--Edge is apparently going to let his contract expire. Edge's five-year WWE contract expires on Monday. He was offered a new deal to remain exclusive to the company and didn't sign. He will be a special guest at the Resistance Pro show on 5/11 in Chicago. credit f4wonline

I have seen reports before that both Edge and Christian were always smart with money in case something like this early retirement ever happened to them.

But I also wonder what he'll do, I think he's only been in WWE movies and not sure if he has any TV or SYFY roles.

I hope if he doesn't sign he knows what he's doing. Hope he does well.

Without the WWE machine Edge is nothing.

Very odd decision,I guess he wants some type of freedom. But is he going to make a lot of money being a extra on these shitty sci-fi shows?

Edge's first post-WWE appearance has been officially announced. WWE Hall of Famer Edge is scheduled to appear at Resistance Pro's May 11th show in Chicago, Illinois. He will be signing autographs for reserved ticket holders only (rows 1-3). The show will be headlined by former WWE stars Harry Smith vs. Rhino.

Resistance Pro is the promotion of "Smashing Pumpkins" lead singer Billy Corgan.

Yeah, Edge is on Bubba's radio show a lot down here in Tampa, the guys always kid him about how cheap he is and how he's saved every penny, signed pre-nups and never had any kids etc..

Im guessing his decision not to resign is just a matter of him feeling insulted at the low offer they gave him, compared to Foley and HBK...Edge was a big star, but not on their level, IMO.

Freedom to do what ? I don't see him doing any type of acting if he isn't with WWE.

He's not going anywhere. He doesn't even own the trademark "Edge"

Edge seems like the kind of wrestler that doesn't want to be in the business forever. I think he'll succeed in anything he does wrestling or else. Despite that, it is quite possible that he is trying to gain some sort of leverage in these negotiations.

If the guy doesn't want to re-sign with wwe or sign with anyone, that's his own business. Why care about it half of y'all don't even like the guy. Maybe he had one of those insurance policies and doesn't have to work and just wants to kick back and do nothing for awhile. At the end of the day, it's his life he can do whatever he wants to. I'm sure there is the desire to get away from the spotlight for awhile and just be a regular guy.

I honestly didn't think Edge would be one of these idiots to think they can do things away from the WWE.

Who cares? It's his life so he can do what he wants. If he's saved enough money to live comfortably for the rest of his life than good for him. Considering how long he's worked for WWE I could understand him wanting to do his own thing.

Something tells me that he won't be making peanuts on the appearance circuit....I know what it would cost to bring The Ultimate Warrior in for an appearnace, and I couldn't imagine Edge being to far off that number...It's still quite a bit of money that he will bring in doing these things.

Edge is done now; he can't act, he's very ugly, and he will never be able to wrestle again. Any residual value he has from his days in the WWE will ware off quickly, as they will surely, unless he does resign, almost erase him from the history of the company.

For all intents and purposes, I think Edge would be happy doing nothing but lounging around his home.

Yea, I'm with Jobes. Edge was smart. He didn't have any kids and he made sure none of his women got to take his money. He can probably live comfortably for a years and maybe come back as an agent at some point. For now though he can just dick around and do indy shows for the fun of it.
