10 Superstars Kurt Angle Needs To Face Before He Retires

By Andrew Pollard /

3. Kevin Owens

Right now, Kevin Owens is the hottest heel in the WWE and the greatest active in-ring talent on the main roster. Simply put, if the WWE is to thrive over the next few years then KO has a vital role to play. Imagine the scene, though, if Kurt Angle turned up on an episode of Monday Night Raw to make a triumphant return, a homecoming if you will. The crowd would go wild, the commentators would be gushing over Kurt€™s achievements€and then you hear Kevin Owens€™ music kick in. Out walks the Canadian Prizefighter to run down Angle as being old, washed-up and passed his best. It would make for great, captivating TV and set the stage for what could be a fantastic rivalry between a savvy legendary veteran and a cocky young upstart. When it comes to the in-ring stuff (you know, the actual wrestling part of the this-totally-isn€™t-wrestling business), Owens is a unique talent that can hold his own with anybody. Throw in a performer as phenomenal as Kurt Angle and you have the ingredients for something truly spectacular. It's Kevin Owens being Kevins Owens. It€™s Kurt Angle being Kurt Angle.
