3 WWE Superstars who may have lost momentum at Crown Jewel

#2 Kurt Angle

Kurt Angle was one of the big names in the WWE World Cup

Kurt Angle disguised himself as The Conquistador, eliminating Baron Corbin to win the global battle royal, and qualify for the first ever World Cup at Crown Jewel.

According to the betting odds, he along with Rollins were hot favorites to win the World Cup trophy. However, nobody imagined what transpired as the Olympic gold medalist was knocked out after losing clean to Dolph Ziggler in the very first round of the tournament.

Rumour has it that Kurt Angle will soon receive another WWE run, and was reportedly training for the same. He created a lot of buzz all over the internet when he qualified for the World Cup.

However, a clean loss to 'The Showoff' Dolph Ziggler in the very first round has not only hindered his momentum, but has also reduced his credibility as a performer right before his rumoured run.
