Captain Kurt Angle?

It sounds like WWE may be sending Kurt Angle back into action sooner rather than later. It’s being reported today that Angle will return to the ring as captain of the Team RAW at Survivor Series. Apparently, his teammates will be Finn Bálor, Samoa Joe, Roman Reigns, and Braun Strowman.

It’s also being reported that Shane McMahon will captain Team SmackDown, which will consist of Randy Orton, Shinsuke Nakamura, Bobby Roode, and AJ Styles.

Of course, things can always change, but with the invasion angle from last week, it kind of makes sense that the authority figures from both brands would captain their respective teams.

Eric Bischoff On WWE’s Handling Of Roman Reigns

Eric Bischoff has never been one to shy away from controversy, and I am sure that some will find his opinion on how WWE is presenting Roman Reigns as a bit interesting. In a recent interview, Bischoff said that refusing to categorize Reigns as a heel or a face was a “cop out.”

“You have to make a choice and you have to commit to a character. You’re either a babyface or a character that the fans relate to, support, love and aspire to be, or you’re not. And if you’re not, you’re heel, you’re despicable and they need to learn to love to hate you. And I think when you take that safe road in-between and let the fans decide…to me, it’s a cop-out. To me, that’s kind of like raising your hands and saying, ‘look, I’ve got ideas. I really don’t have a plan, so let’s just put him out there and let the fans choose.’ I think that’s just the most cowardly creative cop-out that I’ve ever heard.”

I hate to agree with Bischoff on anything, but in this instance, I have to say he knows what he is talking about.
