On the latest episode of his podcast, Kurt Angle said that WWE recently contacted him about returning to television "for the next month or so."

Angle revealed the news when "The Kurt Angle Show" co-host Paul Bromwell asked him about a call he had gotten the past week.

"Yes, I did [receive a phone call], from the WWE" Angle said. "And they want me to be involved in the show for the next month or so. And I'm really excited about it. So, we'll see what's in store for me."

The podcast episode was released on Sunday but was recorded before the Royal Rumble.

WWE brought Angle to St. Louis for the Royal Rumble, though he wasn't in the men's Royal Rumble match and didn't appear on the pay-per-view. PWInsider reports that Angle did film content for Peacock/WWE Network, including an episode of Table for Three.

Angle retired from in-ring competition with his match against Baron Corbin at WrestleMania 35 in 2019. He was released from his behind-the-scenes position with WWE during the company's April 2020 releases, but he's made multiple on-screen appearances for WWE since then.

Conrad doesn't even host his show anymore.

Sounds like Angle just going to do some talking head spots for future projects, probably do Fan Axxess as well.

It's Angle's infamous "You Suck" heel role that led to the WWE contacting him. The big question is do you still need him back on WWE programming with his likeness in the locker room saying the same thing?

A locker room saying "you suck" to Kurt Angle.....if that happens, then Vince should fire everyone who does and the the others who didn't speak up against it.

Chances it got dropped because Kurt said something about it, and that made the higher ups mad, so they said fuck off Kurt

Good chance lol not sure why he spoiled his own return like that

But they also just change their minds on a whim so who fuckin' knows, maybe he was a Shane idea too :heston
