It’s been years since Kurt Angle has wrestled a match as he hung up the boots for good after he was defeated by Baron Corbin at WrestleMania 35.
Even though Kurt Angle is currently retired there seems to be a lot of interest in a possible return match as he confirmed in the past that AEW contacted him about a possible return. During an interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling, the former WWE Champion indicated that he doesn’t have plans to wrestle a match, but noted that he would likely compete in a tag team match if he returned to the ring.
“I don’t think so. I had knee replacements five months ago. I’m good. I think I had a good enough career that I’m very proud of. If it does come to be, it’ll probably be a tag match like Ric Flair did so that I don’t get exposed. I hate to say it, but I’m not exactly the same wrestler I used to be. If I did decide to have a wrestling match, it would be against younger guys that could carry me, and I would make sure it’d be a tag match so I wasn’t exposed. It’s hard to say this right now because I’m basically telling the fans, ‘Hey, I can’t really wrestle anymore, but watch me in my next match.’ But I’m just telling the truth. I’m an honest person. I’m just saying, I’m not like I used to be and never will be, but you know what, maybe down the road, I might do a tag match.”
