The leadup to Edge and Randy Orton’s big match at WrestleMania has been stellar, and on the second night of this weekend’s WrestleMania, the two managed to deliver an unforgettable battle. As the two have torn through the performance center, they have left every part of it in shambles, and they’ve also left each other pretty battered as well. Amongst all the carnage there is one move that quickly got people talking, which was a crazy Spider-Man like move where Edge did an elbow drop from the ceiling over Randy Orton on a table, and we’ve collected some of the best reactions to it starting on the next slide.

At one point Orton was put on a conference room table, and Edge saw an opportunity where most wouldn’t. Above Orton was a stretch of chainlink fencing, and Edge grabbed hold of it and pulled himself up to the ceiling.
In full Spider-Man mode, he then crawled into position, picking the right moment to dive onto Orton below with a full elbow drop. It wasn’t a big distance, but it hit hard, and we absolutely loved it.

That Drop Tho
Once Edge pulled that maneuver fans couldn’t stop talking about it, hitting Orton from the chain-link ceiling.

Why Is That There?
Fans really seem to like the creativity of the move, but they are also wondering why there’s a fence on the ceiling…and it’s a valid question.
That was very cool, but why do they have a fence on the ceiling of the conference room? #WrestleMania

Quite Creative
You’ve gotta hand it to Edge, that was certainly creative.

You knew someone was going to make a Spider-Man comparison, and we can’t blame them in the least.

Kind of Awesome
The elbow drop from the chainlink ceiling was unexpected, but many fans thought it was also pretty freaking sweet as well.

A Question
While many loved the move, again, the question does have to be asked why that ceiling is in a board room to begin with.
Why is there a steel cage above the board room table at the Performance Center. And Edge’s elbow drop off it was hilarious. #WrestleMania

Parkour
Someone also had to point out Edge’s parkour-styleย move and that Cole felt the need to explain it.

Lowest High Spot
As you can see in the move below, this is probably one of the most devastating and lowest high spot maneuvers ever.
