11. Big Update On Who Kurt Angle Is Scheduled To Face In His WWE Return Match, Old School WWF Veteran Asked About Sylverster Stallone

– As we noted before, WWE Hall of Famer and current Raw General Manager Kurt Angle’s “ruin me” storyline on Raw will eventually result in the return of Stephanie McMahon to WWE programming.

According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, this will result in Triple H somehow getting involved and eventually the storyline will end up featuring Kurt Angle’s WWE in-ring return, possibly against Triple H.

With The Undertaker retiring this year at WrestleMania 33, there’s a pretty good chance that WWE books Angle’s in-ring return at next year’s WrestleMania 34. Speaking of Angle vs. HHH, you can watch their steel cage match from an episode of Raw in 2002 below:

– Former World Wrestling Federation Superstar The 1-2-3 Kid / X-Pac was recently interviewed on The Tomorrow Show, where he talked about Old School Hollywood Action Hero Icon Sylvester Stallone.

Here’s what the former European Champion & Tag Team Champion had to say …

“He was talking about wrestling, like right there like five feet from me…and then so I looked over and made eye contact and he was like this, and he goes ‘you look familiar’ and I was about to say the same thing…he was very cool.”

Mutual Friends with Stallone?

“Stallone was talking a lot about wrestling. He wanted to know uh…and we’re talking about mutual friends that we have…a guy named Terry Funk, he’s a legend and he was in one of Stallone’s very first movies called ‘Paradise Alley’ which was an excellent movie yeah…they did the–they did the movie that uh–there’s a wrestling theme to it….a guy named Harley Race, he was familiar with some younger guys that are younger than me called the Hardy Boyz and I was quite you know I was t–I thought that was kinda neat.”

About the movie ‘Copland’:

“He was talking about Paul Newman, and uh, and he wanted Paul Newman for the part that Harvey Keitel ended up playing and nobody really knew that so that was kinda cool.”
