      WWF superstar Edge appeared on TSN's Off The Record with Michael Landsberg on 03/18. Here are the highlights of what occured:

Opening Segment:
      Video clips were shown of Edge coming to the squared circle to face off against Triple H from the 01/11 edition of RAW. The announcer stated that you can call him Adam Copeland, but in the WWF, he is The Edge.
      Michael Landsberg introduced the individuals joining Edge on the show first. He was joined by Atlanta Falcons star O.J. Santiago and author Douglas Century.
      He then introduced Edge to more clips of his match against HHH, and Edge stated his name is just "Edge" not "The Edge. Edge had died his hair bleach blond and was wearing a green t-shirt, jeans, and a large cross. He said later in the show he will promote WrestleMania.

Segment 1:
      They discussed the firing of Toronto Blue Jay's manager Tim Johnson, and Edge stated that it is all about winning in regards to coaching in professional sports. They then discussed Sammy Sosa bowing to the crowd during a baseball game yesterday, and whether it was disrespectful. Edge thought that Sammy was one of baseball's most respected, and he didn't think that was in bad taste at all.
All four talked about the SuperBowl a bit as the show cut to commercial.

Segment 2:
      This segment was generally about violence in sports, and injuring people. All four agreed it shouldn't be intentional. A debate was brought up on how Edge shouldn't talk since he was in a very violent sport. Landsberg defended Edge, stating wrestling was now the "sports-entertainment" business. Edge said Bill Romanowsky spitting in another players face this past football season was in bad taste.
      As the show cut to another commercial, a fact was shown on the screen talking about Edge's previous gimmick that was similar to Val Venis' "Sexton Hardcastle."

Segment 3:
      This segment they discussed education being priority over sports, and how Canada can't match up to U.S. in sports, but U.S. has a horrible rate of college graduates, while Canada doesn't. Edge said education is more important, which surprisingly brought up a bit of debate. Young talent was discussed and it was mentioned how Edge was certainly a young talent, that needs to "bloom."
      The show was almost out of time, as they cut to one final commercial.

Segment 4:
      O.J. Santiago promoted the NFL, Mr. Century promoted his book, and Edge promoted WrestleMania, "the comapany's biggest show ever" according to Edge. He said he wasn't sure if he wrestling or not.
      As the show faded to black, they talked a bit about the Lennox Lewis fight.
