Edge made his shocking return at WWE Royal Rumble and the fans in Houston went crazy. So crazy that WWE decided to focus on the fan reaction instead of catching Edge's first spear back when he took out Dolph Ziggler.
WWE did catch the follow-up spear on Karl Anderson after showing the crowd during the initial Spear.

Fans couldn't believe WWE somehow missed the shot of Edge's first spear. And Dolph Ziggler, while trying to be understanding, was also a bit stunned how such an important moment could be missed.
who cuts away from an official in-ring return, while two opponents are running towards each other?

WWE edited the official YouTube video in a way to make it seem as if the spear on Anderson was the first Spear delivered. You can watch their footage in the video above.
