3 dream WWE matches for Kurt Angle in 2019
In a recent Facebook Q and A, Kurt Angle made it clear that he hopes to battle quite a few competitors in the ring if his body allows. His advice to younger stars was one filled with poignancy as he mentioned they should take care of their bodies, something he regrets not doing.
Though breaking apart, Angle is still clear on wanting to make a go for it in the ring for WWE. This is seemingly good as has been proven in the past few months, Kurt Angle is actually a part-timer looking to put over the next set of stars. If certain wrestlers can eke out a great match out of him, including those he has dreams to confront, then the Hall of Famer could elevate them.
Think about it, a match between Angle and Seth Rollins, or Daniel Bryan, two men he has at the top of the list; would be wonderful. Yet it's not just the usual suspects Kurt could face, with WWE adamant on a feud with Baron Corbin for The Olympic Hero, there are a lot more weird combinations which can excite (not like a Corbin match).
Here are three matches Kurt Angle could give us in 2019 that has dream written all over it.
Dishonorable mention: vs Baron Corbin, WrestleMania 35
With no end in sight to Baron Corbin's reign of terror, and Braun Strowman unlikely to cause an abdication, Kurt Angle will need to step up to Baron Corbin. This will come on the road to WrestleMania, with Angle entering the Rumble to a huge pop and eliminating Corbin.
Eventually, this will set up a match between the two men to come out as RAW GM permanently. Unfortunately for the WWE Universe, Kurt wants to participate further in the ring, and his selflessness will more than likely see the man lose to Corbin, in a match meant to put over one of Vince McMahon's more under the radar projects.
Either way, a Corbin versus Angle match isn't exciting, which really kills the mood. On a normal day, one might see it on the kickoff show, but with WWE's current fascination with the golden glove champion, and part-time attractions, look to it being a featured RAW bout. Nothing dreamy about it.
#3 vs AJ Styles, WWE Crown Jewel; World Cup Round I
A match Kurt Angle has partaken in many times during his run at Impact Wrestling, a revisit in WWE might be the boost Kurt Angle's wrestling career needs. This depends on how long he intends to keep going. AJ Styles is definitely a top list superstar Angle has to face.
More than a dream match, this one could be the best option simply because Styles is the kind of guy to carry Angle to a safe but stellar contest. He did it not too long ago for Shane McMahon, providing WrestleMania 33's best match, so why not here. The crowds in Saudi Arabia loves its big former stars, and giving Kurt another showcase first time WWE match in the first round would be the way to go.
The two men are so aware of each other, that maybe Styles pull off a carry job. Angle might not have this on his top priorities list, but it's definitely something the fans are clamouring for. Either that, or give us another round of Joe vs Angle.
