WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle showed up on the latest episode of SmackDown for his birthday celebrations. He appeared on multiple backstage segments, celebrating with the locker room, including the returning Gable Steveson, except for Chad Gable and Otis.

The show ended with Angle recreating his iconic milk truck moment in the ring as he sprayed Otis and Chad with a milk hose with Gable Steveson.

Speaking on the latest The Kurt Angle Show, the Olympic Gold Medalist revealed the original plans for his SmackDown appearance.

"They wanted me to do the milk truck segment again. They decided to have a bunch of heels talk about me during the show, all through the show, putting me down, and ripping on me. Then, in the end, they were coming out to the ring because I was supposed to have my celebration," said Angle.

Angle further revealed the one-liner that was originally planned to deliver before the milk spray segment.

"I don’t show up, and the heels are in the ring with all the birthday cake and everything, and I come in with milk truck and I go down and I spray them down. I tell them, ‘Hey, you can’t have cake without milk.’ It’s awesome. When I was told this, I was so excited. Because that was my favorite moment in WWE."

The fans in attendance and those watching around the globe thoroughly enjoyed the return of one of the all-time greats. It was also great to see Gable Steveson return to WWE television after a long time.
