BREAKING: Kurt Angle to be inducted into WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2017

[Drew]

Man I would liked to have seen a surprise rumble return before announcing this.

Good idea......Have a surprise being ruined by websites and not have more speculation and people thinking another major star is going to be in the rumble to sell out a stadium and get more viewers isn't a better option because....Surprise.....We could've made more money, but surprise!!!!

Brilliant!!

WWE usually do do surprises for the Royal Rumble, but I agree this year they're not going to because they want to sell out in San Antonio. No big names won't be advertised this year.

If it was in a 20k seat arena, I'm all for shocking returns, but I'm not going to ignore smart business practices because it's an inconvenience to me as a viewer.

Some people need to put their business caps on.

So who inducts him? Vince, Steph? AJ? but they would mean them acknowledging TNA past.

I personally can see Edge and Christian, because of the 2000 connection

 

[Roadster]

That's awesome news. Definitely deserving of some air-time to celebrate what he has done for WWE, and for pro-wrestling, in general.

 

[Jimmy King]

Super stoked about this news, it honestly made my day. Even if he doesn't have a match I'm just happy that he's back home in the WWE.

I could actually see Austin inducting him, or maybe Vince even. I would say E&C but Christian is another rumored name to go in the HOF this year so if that comes to be true well then Edge would be the definite choice for inducting Christian.

We could still see a team RECK reunion since Rhyno is in the WWE too.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

I hope Chris Benoit inducts him.

 

[Guess Who]

Stephanie and Triple H should really induct Angle. This storyline really helped catapult him to main event status. They worked so well together. Honestly, how many amazing matches did Triple H and Kurt Angle engage in over Stephanie? Who can forget their tag matches and six-person tag matches? This would be a no brainer for me personally.

 

[Crippler]

none, all the trips/kurt matches never lived up to the angle.

 

[Roadster]

Angle had much better programs with a lot of other people.

 

[Deezy]

Rock or Austin could induct him, Rock on name value and Austin for their vignette stories.

Or go crazy and get an amateur wrestling legend to do it.

 

[Crippler]

who recruited him was it JR? or Pat? I can also see Brock with the amateur background and feud they had.

 

[Deezy]

Most likely Gerry Brisco who recruited him.

He was doing that job forever.

 

[Cwalker]

I thought Brock but I'm not sure he'd wanna do it.

Could have a cheap cop out and have Vince do it himself
