• Kurt Angle Agrees To A WrestleMania 35 Match With RAW Wrestler?
WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle will have his retirement match at WrestleMania 35 and he’s set to announce his WrestleMania opponent on tonight’s RAW.
New RAW wrestler Shelton Benjamin (who made his return to the RAW brand last week and lost to Seth Rollins) challenged Angle to a match at WrestleMania 35 and Angle looks interested:
I’m game!!!!

While Angle vs. Benjamin will most likely NOT take place at WrestleMania 35, it wouldn’t be surprising if Angle faces him on an episode of RAW on the Road to WrestleMania 35 as WWE noted that Angle will be facing wrestlers on RAW as a part of his Farewell tour.
