• Former RAW Champions To Undergo Counseling Tonight On RAW To Save Their Jobs

Former RAW Women’s Champions Sasha Banks and Bayley will undergo counseling on tonight’s episode of RAW as ordered by RAW General Manager Kurt Angle, or they’ll be fired.

Below is what WWE posted:

“Bayley finally snapped on Sasha Banks last week, but Raw General Manager Kurt Angle isn’t about to let the fracturing friendship between the two former champions explode into outright hostility just yet. Following The Huggable One’s assault, Angle informed each woman individually that they would have to undergo counseling in order to keep their jobs as Raw Superstars.

What those sessions will entail, of course, remains to be seen. But either way, it seems this road has reached a fork as pivotal as it is unusual.”

• Possible Tag Team Match For Extreme Rules 2018

According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, WWE might add The Usos vs. SAnitY to this month’s Extreme Rules 2018 PPV. SAnitY squared off against The Usos and United States Champion Jeff Hardy on this week’s SmackDown Live and lost.

Many fans have wondering why WWE doesn’t use Kurt Angle, who’s currently the General Manager of RAW, as a full time wrestler or even as a part timer who works the big 4 PPVs.

Mike Johnson of PWInsider discussed this and noted that WWE officials know Angle’s body is breaking down and they feel ‘he can’t go’ anymore. That’s why WWE has been saving Angle for special shows only.

In 2017, Angle wrestled at the TLC and Survivor Series PPVs where he was involved in multi-man matches. This year, he worked a mixed tag team match at WrestleMania 34 and the 50 man Greatest Royal Rumble match at the Greatest Royal Rumble event. Angle has yet to have a singles match in WWE since his return last year.

All we can say is Kurt Angle turns 50 in December this year and next year’s WrestleMania 35 event would be the perfect time for him to finally have his first singles match in WWE in over a decade as his body isn’t getting any better as the time passes by.
