We are back and it is time for the Cutting Edge.
Edge says a great man he knew lived his life huge and it doesn't get more huge than Smackdown 1000. Edge says he had to be here. Smackdown has always felt like his show. Some of his greatest accomplishments happened here. He cashed in against the Undertaker. He competed in a No DQ match against Eddie Guerrero that people talk to him about today. He married Vickie Guerrero. He divorced Vickie Guerrero. Needless to say, this show really means something to him. The last few weeks, he has been watching and had to come here to address it.

Edge says more than anyone else, he understands what Becky is thinking and what she is doing. He says he wasn't supposed to be in the main event and he wasn't supposed to be on the posters. He had to fight for everything he got in this company, just like you. Edge says Becky thinks she is doing the right thing by throwing away her friendship with Charlotte, but he says Becky did not make the right choice. Edge says he made those same choices. If there was a friendship or relationship that got between him and the top, he crushed it. He left a trail of burnt bridges. You can win all of the championships you want. You can be on all of the posters you want. The choices you are making change who you are. They will stain your soul. Edge says he sees a good person in there. The end result is with you sitting in your home staring at the championships on your wall reminiscing about all of your accomplishments by yourself.
Edge says you won't even like yourself.
Becky says she does not like herself . . . she loves herself. Becky tells Edge to stop being condescending and get out of her ring. She tells Edge not to hurt his neck going through those ropes.
Charlotte Flair's music plays and she makes her way to the ring.
Charlotte asks why did Becky go there. All Becky cares about is that championship. That is why you ran at Super Show Down. That is why you ran before you were put through that LED board. Charlotte says you love what you've become then you will love what she is going to do to her . . . right now.
