Edge and Beth Phoenix are going to team for the first time ever at the WWE Royal Rumble in 2022.
The Miz and Maryse have been a thorn in the side of edge for about a month now and at WWE Day 1, Edge unleashed the perfect neutralizer, his own wife, Beth Phoenix. After Beth helped Edge win against Miz, The Miz and Maryse came out on Monday Night Raw on January 3 to protest what happened and demand Justice.
Edge and Beth immediately had the perfect solution which was a mixed tag team match at the Royal Rumble. While Miz accepted the match, Maryse was not happy with him afterward.
However, it is now official it will be The It Couple vs. The GrIT Couple at the Royal Rumble.
From WWE:
At Royal Rumble, Superstar spouses will join forces in battle when Edge & Beth Phoenix go to war against The Miz & Maryse.
In the weeks leading up to Edge’s one-on-on WWE Day 1 matchup against Miz, a returning Maryse made her presence known by helping her husband get the better of The Rated-R Superstar on more than one occasion. The Ultimate Opportunist returned the favor when he interrupted the renewal of the A-lister couple’s wedding vows and humiliated them by dropping some Brood ooze all over their fancy white threads.
At WWE Day 1, Maryse continued to interfere in Miz’s showdown against Edge until Phoenix had apparently seen enough. The ultra-intimidating Glamazon reemerged with an intense look in her eye and ultimately caused a distraction that allowed her husband to hit an “awesome” Spear on Miz for the victory!
When the stars of the hit reality show “Miz & Mrs.” came to the ring on the following Monday on Raw to express their outrage over the chaotic outcome at the Premium Live Event, their WWE Hall of Fame adversaries opted to confront them in the ring and issued a challenge for a mixed tag team match between them.
What will happen with spouses united in the squared circle in a highly personal showdown? Find out at Royal Rumble, Saturday Jan. 29 at 8 ET /7 PT, streaming LIVE on Peacock in United States and WWE Network everywhere else.
