5 reasons why Kurt Angle should sign with AEW

#1 End Kurt Angle's career on his terms

Kurt Angle has expressed his dissatisfaction with his WWE retirement

AEW offers Kurt Angle the opportunity to get the sour taste of his WWE retirement out of his mouth. Since retiring from in-ring competition by putting over Baron Corbin at WrestleMania 35, Kurt Angle has expressed his feelings about his placement on the card and how long his match lasted during the event.

During a recent episode of The Kurt Angle Show on AdFreeShows, Angle admitted that he wasn't thrilled when he learned that his match would be placed 14th on the 16 match WrestleMania 35 card:

"It does hurt, but, like I said before, you understand your role in the company at that time. You understand the position of your match, you know, they were a featured match, and if they wanted more time, they were going to get it; and obviously, they were going to cut my time. That's just the way it is, and that's the way it will continue to be."

Furthermore, Kurt Angle stated that given his status within the company and the professional wrestling industry, he hoped that his retirement match would last longer than 6 minutes:

"I just felt like, with my status, that I would be treated a little bit differently, but I understand. I did what I was told to do. I made my retirement match at WrestleMania, I did the honors by doing the job, and I put Baron Corbin over so that he continued on to get to the main event status. So, I did my job, and that's all I can ask for."

An opportunity to put things right in AEW?

Should Kurt Angle sign with AEW, the former WWE Champion would have an invaluable opportunity to end his professional wrestling in-ring career the way he envisaged it. Winning World Championships, competing in main event matches, headlining pay-per-view events with matches that last longer than 6 minutes.

There's no doubt that Kurt Angle is one of the greatest professional wrestlers of all time, and his final match should be a celebration of what he was truly great at. Wrestling.

Kurt Angle's final match inside of a wrestling ring should be the headline main event attraction for a pay-per-view event against a worthy opponent that can help Angle put on one final 25 minute wrestling classic match. That is certainly possible in AEW.

If Kurt Angle does sign with AEW, there is once again hope that Kurt Angle can retire in a way that's fitting for his career, against the best wrestlers in the world that AEW has to offer, in the main event of a major AEW pay-per-view.
