Reports suggest that the upcoming WWE SmackDown episode on August 18 could feature the legendary WWE Hall of Famer Edge's retirement match!  Edge’s retirement news from the company was already circulating in the world of wrestling till now. But when he will mark his last match was still undecided until now. But a heartfelt exchange with Sheamus on the August 11 SmackDown episode gave us a definite answer to that question.

During the 11th August SmackDown, Edge and Sheamus’ conversation seemed like a friendly interaction at first. But it hinted at a very significant match in Edge’s career.
