As we have mentioned here on the site, Edge has been banged up for the last few weeks. In an interview that he did last week in Fresno, CA (thanks to Nitin Gambhir for sending it along) in promotion with tonight's Smackdown/ECW tapings, Edge talked about the Ladder Match that he did with Jeff Hardy at the 6/7 Extreme Rules PPV. About the bout he said, "That one really took it out of me. Ten years ago if we did that match you know maybe in a few days we would have felt a lot better. We were 10 years younger though. Now, it took me almost a full week before I could walk upright." He added that "it took a while to recuperate from that one." He said that when you saw he and Jeff moving slowly during the match had for Smackdown a couple of days later it was because they were hurting. He said now that he's "not too bad". He didn't mention this, but it's also why he was not in the mix for The Bash going in to the event.
