During an appearance at Wizard World Cleveland over the weekend, 2017 WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle was asked about his upcoming Hall of Fame induction and whether he would wrestle again for WWE. Screen Geek quoted Angle as saying the following,
“I was just surprised that I got this induction before I retired. I think it’s a great idea, a great concept on WWE’s part. They haven’t told me if I’m going to wrestle again, but, you know, never say never in WWE. I’m pretty sure that I will. It’s kind of rare to be inducted first and then possibly wrestle afterward, but I get it. You have to remember – I’ve been gone eleven years. I kind of missed a generation of people that don’t know who I am. This is a better way for them to get to know who Kurt Angle is – before Kurt Angle could possibly get in the ring. I haven’t talked to Triple H or Vince McMahon about wrestling, that will occur after the Hall of Fame, and we’ll see what happens.”
