I was watching SmackDown tonight and it got me thinking again.

Why is Edge still called "The Rated R Superstar"?

He is, in no way, "Rated R" anymore.

At least when he was a heel, he could do some "bad things" like cheat and use chairs and so on, which were "bad" like Rated R stuff is "bad". But now, as a face who has the crowd behind him all the time and who makes jokes towards the heels every now and then, he's not doing anything that's even remotely "Rated R".

I'm trying to think of a good reason why he still has that nickname, but all that I can come up with is that it's just for merchandise sales now, as giving him a new nickname might not sell well as merchandise and the WWE don't want to take that gamble.

But surely there has to be a better reason than that.
