Kurt Angle’s In Ring Return

As we all saw last night at WWE TLC, Kurt Angle returned to in-ring action, teaming with Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose in the main event. Apparently, it was Vince McMahon himself that made the call to have Angle in the match.

Due to the outbreak of the mumps on RAW’s roster, Angle was rushed through a physical on Friday in Pittsburgh, and as soon as he got the good-to-go from his doctors, the announcement was made that he would be replacing Roman Reigns at TLC.

As of now, it’s unclear if Angle will wrestle more matches for WWE. Sunday’s match was reportedly a one-off, but who knows? The door is open for Angle to be featured on any of WWE’s bigger shows in the future.

RAW Return Updates

Speaking of that mumps outbreak, Bo Dallas, Bray Wyatt, and Roman Reigns are still out of action for the near future. Reigns reportedly is suffering from the mumps, and he and Bray Wyatt are going to be retested next Monday to see when they can return to the road. No word on when Dallas will return.

There’s still a fear that more of RAW’s roster could contract the illness, but for now, things are holding steady at the three wrestlers who are currently out.
