Angle and Corbin have wrestled each other on multiple occasions, to mild reactions at best. The match doesn't deserve to be Kurt Angle's final match, let alone get a spot on the WrestleMania card.

#1 The WWE Universe is seething with anger

Ever since Angle announced his opponent for WrestleMania, fans have been causing an uproar on social media.

Be it WWE's Instagram post, or the Youtube video, fans are voicing their displeasure on every platform. If WWE goes along with the idea, this might lead to massive fan backlash at WrestleMania.

The match will certainly not get the reaction WWE wants at a major PPV like WrestleMania. Fans might even start booing the match, which wouldn't be a pretty sight to see, considering it's Angle's final match.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
