10 WWE Returns Everyone Asked For (Which Ended Up Sucking)

8. Kurt Angle

It's depressingly ironic to realise that the star who once made chanting "You Suck!" one of the most over acts in WWE history, subsequently found his last in-ring run in the company falling into that unwanted classification.

Sadly though, similarly to Bret Hart before him, this was once again a case of pulling the trigger too damn late, with the Olympic hero's body simply battered beyond repair by the time he finally made amends with Vinnie Mac in 2017.

Now, sure, Angle could still offer something when it came to a multi-person car crash situation, notably taking us back down memory lane in his one-time Shield appearance and WrestleMania 34 teaming with Ronda Rousey. But the Wrestling Machine fans had been angling to see collide with the likes of Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, and Roman Reigns inside of a WWE ring just wasn't there anymore and a painfully limp closing stretch between the ropes was emphatically hammered home by a loss to Baron Corbin in his retirement bout at 'Mania 35.

At least we'll always have the memories of HBK and 'Taker classics, Jimmy Crack Corn, and Sexy Kurt.
