10 Wild Predictions For Kurt Angle’s Big Secret

In a rare throwback to bygone days, WWE recently began airing two separate mystery storylines on Monday Night Raw that finally afforded viewers a reason to tune in for more than a week at a time.

The bloated three hour editions of the flagship had previously put paid to such a trope, with one-night stories becoming the norm and characters generally being reset the following week regardless of their actions just seven days earlier.

With the dovetailing mysteries of Enzo Amoré's attacker and Kurt Angle's telephone harassment, viewers were asked to be patient whilst the theatrical investigations played out as they so often would back when the company only had an hour two to play with each week.

It was rather fitting that Corey Graves and Kurt Angle were the two key presences in outing Big Cass as Enzo's assailant. It has been their relationship that has allowed the Olympic Gold Medallist's own mystery to continue to simmer. The pair have been thick as thieves since the story's commencement, bounded by odd texts and calls that mask a dark secret the Raw General Manager has been desperate to keep locked away.

Things came to a head for Angle this week on Raw, when a show-closing conversation revealed he had no choice but thrash all the details out live on next week's show. At long last, the fanbase will find out exactly what Kurt's been hiding under his smart casual GM attire. But just what is it?

Speculation has been rampant that the former TNA boss will make a once-unthinkable live appearance for WWE following her surprising inclusion on the WWE Network's recent Kurt Angle '24' special.

In that, she took the role as an authoritative friend during Kurt's time away from paternal figure Vince McMahon. During one of her talking heads, she noted Angle's lengthy struggles with drug and alcohol addiction during his TNA tenure. She advised him that the work came second to his deteriorating health, similar to the warnings McMahon had laid out before their acrimonious 2006 split, but he continued on his road to ruin.

It implied the sort of close-knit relationship few performers were likely to establish with their boss, and may have inadvertently laid groundwork for an on-screen tryst. The documentary may have served as a soft-launch for the former Impact Zone chief to any WWE fans that never switched onto the Orlando product, and with Raw emanating from her spiritual home of Nashville, Tennessee next week, the logistics fit for her arrival.

Dixie was once tied to a similar angle in TNA alongside AJ Styles, but the story careered off a cliff when it was revealed the pair were actually helping mutual friend Claire Lynch combat drug addiction. The more obvious payoff may this time fit perfectly with Kurt's scandalous secret.
