While the hype surrounding Kurt Angle potentially wrestling again has cooled since he returned to WWE, it's probably going to happen. Raw's General Manager continues to talk it up every time he's asked about it, and while his ability to pass the company's stringent medical tests remains a big question mark, it wouldn't be a major surprise to see him compete at WrestleMania 34.

The company will likely go for a safe, reliable worker when determining Kurt's opponent. There's no escaping Angle's long history of neck issues, and rather than booking him against a stiff, brutish wrestler like Brock Lesnar, the company will select somebody they know will take good care of Angle.

Enter The Miz.

Though often criticised for being "soft" in the ring, Miz is the ideal man for this role. He has absolutely mastered WWE's safety-first style, and as well as being a low-risk choice, there's great potential in a Miz vs. Angle storyline. 'The A-Lister' was producing some of his career's best work while raging against Daniel Bryan on SmackDown, and if WWE can successfully recreate this dynamic on Raw, they'll have a money match on their hands.
