Now, previously it was reported that Kurt Angle is not expected to return to WWE, anytime soon. With all the rumors going around the internet regarding his return around the WWE Draft, Kurt Angle himself issued a statement to make it clear that he may return to the company soon and positive in mind from his side as well as the WWE officials are.
Kurt Angle, a former Olympic Gold Medalist and one of the best wrestlers to step foot inside that WWE ring has recently spoken to Mark Madden about his possibility to return to the WWE ring. He stated that he had a discussion with WWE CEO Triple H about the issue and soon can be expected to return to WWE. Though, he cleared that they did not have any words about the brand split since everyone was speculating about his return in the storyline perspective of the brand split. Here’s what he quoted: (quotes courtesy SportsKeeda.com)
“In response to some of your questions today regarding the WWE and all of the media fanfare about it the last few days, I want to, once again, say that our confidential conversation never discussed the brand split. A few wrestling sites seem to have put a spin on this by twisting some words around to fit their agenda, something that I have no control over. What I CAN control is my own life, and my life isn’t only wrestling. I do not expect to be in wrestling much longer. I AM excited about my future. Thank you.”
This statement, though, was unable to throw any sort of light in the foggy situation around Kurt Angle’s return. Going by the lines it is evident that Kurt himself, as well as WWE, is eager with the return but unfortunately, it seems that no sort of conclusion has come out of all those talks. There is an even proportion of chance of getting Angle in the company as a backstage employee or some on-screen persona like show manager etc. We have to wait and watch.
