Before the Kurt Angle Invitational Rumble, a whole host of pre-recorded comments were aired on Loaded. Very much in the style of classic WWE Royal Rumble promos, these short clips allowed everyone involved in the match to explain why they believed they had a shot at winning. It was possible to see the excitement in the eyes of many as mouths watered over a potential showdown against Kurt Angle.

The likes of Drew Galloway and Ethan Carter III spoke of their experience, having faced the Olympic Gold Medal winner before. Meanwhile, Gabriel Kidd was left shocked when Jennifer Louise told him Angle had requested his entry into the Rumble personally.

By far the main highlight came when Travis Banks referenced The Bushwhackers. One of the most barmy tag-teams in WWF/WWE history, Luke and Butch must be considered the most famous wrestling duo to come out of New Zealand. That doesn't sit well with Banks, who aims to eclipse the marching pair with his work in WCPW.

This touch of humour seemed unintentional, the Kiwi wasn't in the mood for fun and games and looked super-serious.
