#3 Kurt Angle vs Baron Corbin

The Constable could finally get his comeuppance.
The Constable could finally get his comeuppance.

Kurt Angle was removed as the general manager of Raw on the night after SummerSlam in favour of Stephanie McMahon's appointed 'Constable’ Baron Corbin. It is a fun change, having an active competitor be the authority of the show. It has done wonders for Corbin, who was terribly languishing in the Raw mid-card with that hairline of his.

His new role has really improved his position on the card, not to mention the haircut. The Lone Wolf looks much, much better now than he did with his hair. While his matches are still not exactly that exciting, the character change has worked well. Corbin feels more interesting now than ever before.

Angle was sent on a ‘vacation’ from Raw GM duties, as Corbin took over. Before that, the Olympic Hero was upstaged by the former Constable at every turn since he was appointed so in June. The 2017 WWE Hall of Famer has been thrown around a lot by heels, whether it be Stephanie McMahon, Triple H or Corbin.

He did get some sort of revenge on the former two, alongside Ronda Rousey, at WrestleMania though. He is yet to get his hands on Baron Corbin. It has been widely speculated that this 'vacation’ Kurt Angle is on is setting him up for a full-time wrestling return. If that is so, expect his first match back to be against the guy who has tormented him for months. Baron Corbin better be prepared for the wrestling machine!
