#4. Kurt Angle vs. Finn Balor

The dream match between Kurt Angle and Finn Balor should have happened long before The Olympic Hero hung up his boots.

Angle even stated in an interview with Metro that he hoped to face Balor at some stage in his career:

"He's on top of the world, one of the top three guys right now and he's just started. Being able to do a program with him would be awesome. I'm sure he dreamed of wrestling me back then, now I'm dreaming of wrestling him."

If the former WWE Champion was still competing today, Finn Balor would be the perfect opponent for him at the Show of Shows. The two even have a somewhat parallel background when it comes to competing all over the world. This match would guarantee to have everybody on the edge of their seats.


#3. Kurt Angle vs. Seth Rollins

Fans may recall that at the Tables, Ladders and Chairs event in 2017, Kurt Angle teamed up with Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose to be an honorary member of The Shield for one night only.

Aside from entering the 2019 Men's Royal Rumble match, this was the only time both WWE Superstars stepped into the ring together on television. It's a crime that we never got to see them face each other before Angle retired.

Seth Rollins is one of the modern greats who would put on a stellar contest with the Hall of Famer. Era vs. Era, it just needed to happen. If Kurt wasn't retired, it would steal the show at WrestleMania.
