Kurt Angle Breaks Down The Survivor Series Card

The Raw GM came down to the ring after a near perfect video package highlighting the TLC main event. I mean, it was great. Anyway, Angle starts off by continuing the theme of his hype videos for TLC – every story has a beginning, a middle, and an end. It’s nice, but in pro wrestling there’s never really an end, is there? Look no further than last night for exhibit A.

Then Angle goes into the Survivor Series card. Once again, it’ll be Raw vs. SmackDown – literally, as literally every champion from both sides are going up against their counterpart. Miz vs. Corbin, Bliss vs. Natalya, Ambrose/Rollins vs. Usos (which is going to be so so sooooooo good), and Jinder vs. Brock. Plus the men’s and women’s elimination matches.

Before anything else can go on, The Miz makes his way out to the ring to air his grievances. He thinks Angle has been abusing his power as GM. Therefore, Angle should resign. Clearly, The Miz doesn’t understand how things work in the pro wrestling world. Either way, Miz, along with Curtis Axel and The Bar, surround the ring before Ambrose and Rollins make the save.

Even though Angle is really like an honorary Shield member at this point, there’s more abuse of power to be had. Angle makes a match for right now – The Miz, Cesaro, and Sheamus will take on Ambrose and Rollins, as well as a special guest. He just happens to be a SmackDown superstar, and he’s phenomenal. Yes, AJ Styles stuck around for another night, because reasons, but I don’t care.
