2. Kurt Angle Makes It Clear He Still Wants To Run Raw
Tonight will surely be a night of gloating for acting Raw general manager Baron Corbin.
He “led” Team Raw to victory at Survivor Series, and will assuredly be looking for praise from Stephanie McMahon for his massive success at the show.
While he’s out trying to kiss up to the boss however, Kurt Angle will decide to make his presence on the red brand known once again.
Angle will point out the on-going, and highly unprofessional, feud Corbin is having with Strowman as an example for why he should be reinstated as Raw general manager.
I suspect that leads to Stephanie McMahon, being the quick thinking leader that she is, agreeing with Angle and setting up something along the lines of Strowman versus Corbin at Tables, Ladders, and Chairs in order for the two superstars to work out their differences in a “more professional manner”.
While this will likely not lead to Angle’s redemption just yet, it will serve nicely to push that storyline forward by allowing Corbin to blame Angle for putting him in such a rough situation.
Additionally, at this point, I think we won’t be getting any more matches from the current Universal Champion, Brock Lesnar, until the Royal Rumble in January. A match at TLC then would give Braun Strowman the perfect way to wrap-up his feud with Corbin, while he waits for the return of The Beast.
That won’t be the only match we have to look forward to at TLC however, as perhaps the biggest rivalry on Raw just earned a spot on the card.
