#5 Ruthless Aggression
The career of Kurt Angle is a storied one that dates all the way back to the hottest period in wrestling, the Attitude Era. It's amazing that a superstar like Angle has managed to stay relevant in the ever-changing wrestling world all these years later, but it is not hard to see why the former WWE Champion is regarded as one of the greatest wrestlers of all time.
As this is a man that is responsible for some of the most memorable matches and moments in wrestling history, so, when an ageing Angle came out to the ring to announce that he will retire from wrestling at WrestleMania, fans were not shocked but saddened. As this is the last time we will see Angle in the ring.
And now it is being reported that Angle's last opponent will be none other than John Cena, Cena and Angle have a rich history that works as the build for this match, as both these men have waged so many wars, this last match between the two feels needed.
Cena being the man to take out Angle is sort of poetic, as it was Angle that was Cena's first opponent in the WWE. So do you think that this rumour holds weight, or will WWE select another opponent for Angle?
