SmackDown Results: Restrained Aggression
In spite of SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long’s declaration that Edge and Alberto Del Rio would be banned from WrestleMania if they so much as touched each other, The Rated-R Superstar opted to accompany Christian to his main event match against the aristocratic No. 1 contender to the World Title.
Battling Del Rio for the third week in a row, Captain Charisma triumphed over his opponent with the Killswitch. Meanwhile, outside the ring, Edge executed numerous earth-shattering chair blows to Brodus Clay after the enormous Superstar assaulted the 11-time World Champion from behind.
Moments after the match ended, The Ultimate Opportunist looked as if he might ignore Teddy Long’s order and attack his No. 1 contender with the chair. Realizing what was at stake, Christian stopped Edge at the last second, attacking Del Rio instead so that his former tag team partner would not be banned from WrestleMania. Full results.

Seth Rollins Comments On His Decision To Go To WWE
People often ask me if I regret my decision to leave ROH, or if I wished I had gone to TNA. My answer is no. I am so thankful that I had the opportunity to live out part of my dream in ROH. My 3 years there were more fulfilling than I ever thought possible, but what should be understood is that wrestling for WWE was always my goal. Main eventing Wrestlemania is my Everest. And that is not a knock on ROH at all, it’s just my personal feeling. And it always has been.
