WWE Puts Out Unforgiven Press Release in Canada
Let's get right to it. The WWE has sent out the following press release:
TORONTO, Sept. 6 /CNW/ - On Sunday September 17, World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. returns to Toronto's Air Canada Centre with the sold-out pay-per-view extravaganza, Unforgiven.
Unforgiven will be a very important event for two of WWE's top Superstars: Edge and Trish Stratus. Edge will defend his WWE Championship against John Cena in a Tables, Ladders and Chairs match - a match that Edge has never lost and John Cena has never participated in.
Orangeville, Ontario native Edge was voted "Most Likely to Become WWE Champion" in his high-school yearbook, and that prophecy has come true. This is the second time that Edge has held the coveted WWE Championship and the first time that he will defend it in front of a hometown crowd.
"Nothing can top the feeling of being the WWE Champion - this is spectacular," Edge said, "this is a really triumphant moment, not only for me, but also for everyone who has supported my career throughout the years: my family, my friends and my fans. How many times does the guy who's voted "Most Likely to Become WWE Champion" actually get to defend that Championship in his hometown?"
Unforgiven will also be a landmark occasion for Toronto's darling Trish Stratus and her fans. After an impressive and lengthy career in WWE, the reigning Diva of the Decade, three-time Babe of the Year and six-time Women's Champion has decided to retire, and her final match will take place at Unforgiven.
"I've worked hard, and when you combine WWE and my prior fitness modeling, I've spent the last decade of my life on the road...traveling, being away from home and just working," Trish said.
Commenting on the fact that her last match will be for the Women's Championship and in her home town, Trish added:
"No matter where my final match took place, it would always be special ... but if this were a fairy tale, the writer couldn't come up with a better scenario. My family, my friends ... I couldn't ask for a more perfect scenario. To survive and prosper in this industry, all the sacrifices, you have to have the support of the people closest to you, and to go out in front of the people who always supported me is fitting for the moment."
