“The expectations are very high for Edge and I,” Orton said. “I wasn’t exactly happy that I heard they were calling it the greatest wrestling match in history, but I feel like at this point in my career, and being in there with Edge, who I consider one of the best workers in the business past, present or future, if anybody could have a great match, it’s Edge and I.”

“The pressure is on, I don’t think there’s ever been a couple guys like Edge and myself that have been in this position,” Orton continued. “We’ve been painted in a corner and I think Vince did that so he could see what we are capable of. Between the both of us, we probably have 50 years of experience, so even though he hasn’t been in the ring and had those injuries, I’ve had injuries, too, and I feel were two of the best of this generation.”
