WWE is in Boston, MA at the TD Garden for tonight’s Monday Night Raw. The company sent out the following about the match:
“Like the headline says, Raw will play host to the next stop of Kurt Angle’s last ride through the WWE Universe before he faces Baron Corbin at WrestleMania and hangs up his gold medals for good. The Olympic Hero has not been shy about testing himself on the way out, tussling with uber-talented rising stars like Apollo Crews and Chad Gable, who took Angle to the limit on last week’s show.
Tonight, The Olympic Hero locks up with SmackDown LIVE Superstar and United States Champion Samoa Joe, who would undoubtedly take great pleasure in making Angle tap out. Can the WWE Hall of Famer conquer The Samoan Submission Machine?”
