Kurt Angle addressed the WWE Universe this week on RAW, and the Olympic gold medalist mentioned how his 3 'I's (Intensity, Integrity, and Intelligence) have changed into 3 'D's (Doubt, Defeat, and Depression).

He even talked about his father time but before he could make comments on his future, Baron Corbin and Drew McIntyre interrupted him and we got a tag team match between the team of Braun Strowman and Kurt Angle & the team of Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin.

It was signified this week that Kurt Angle is retiring soon, and so WWE should be planning a great send-off for one of their greatest superstars of all time. Angle joined the WWE after winning an Olympic gold medal and has achieved a lot in pro wrestling ever since. However, with his career coming to an end soon, WWE should give him one Universal Championship shot before he exits.

Here's how WWE should book a 'Career vs Title' match at WrestleMania 35 between Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle.

As we all know, Seth Rollins is currently set to challenge Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 35, however, the Architect is currently injured and is recovering.

To book a match between Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar, WWE needs to get Rollins off WrestleMania 35, and they can do so by saying that his injury has worsened, making him unable to compete at WrestleMania 35.

So next week the Authority would announce a fatal 4-way match for Elimination Chamber PPV between Braun Strowman, Kurt Angle, Drew McIntyre, and Baron Corbin.

In the second to last match of the night, the top 4 stars of Monday Night RAW would collide in a fatal-4 way match on 17 February in order to earn a title shot at the Show of Shows. Angle starts the match slow and gets dominated by McIntyre and Corbin.

Braun Strowman clears the ring by sending both heels out of the ring as Kurt Angle and the Monster are in the ring. As the crowd heats up, the two superstars exchange some blows before McIntyre brings a steel chair to lay out the Monster.

Corbin joins McIntyre inside the ring as they both assault Kurt Angle. The former RAW General Manager also lands outside the ring as Baron Corbin tries to steal a victory by rolling up Drew McIntyre.

McIntyre kicks out at two and loses his mind over Corbin. Corbin tries to act innocent but McIntyre joins forces with a recovered Strowman to take out the Lone Wolf. They give him the same treatment that McIntyre and Corbin had given to Strowman on RAW.

This alliance lasts for a very short time as Drew McIntyre takes down Strowman with the steel steps. Both Strowman and Corbin are out of the ring with Kurt Angle and McIntyre battling in the ring.

McIntyre tries to submit Kurt Angle to his move once again but this time the Olympic gold medalist was prepared for it as he counters. He tries to lock McIntyre in the Ankle Lock but fails. McIntyre goes for a Claymore kick but fails to connect as Angle counters into an Angle Slam.

Kurt Angle pins Drew McIntyre and points to the WrestleMania sign.

Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman would show up on RAW next Monday and devalue Angle's victory at Elimination Chamber, calling it a fluke. Kurt Angle would get infuriated after listening to this but the Universal Champion's advocate would further roast him, making comments on his age and also mentioning that Seth Rollins stood a better chance.

This would anger Lesnar as he would grab the microphone and call Angle an old man, saying that he does not wish to defend his title against someone who has been defeated by the rest of the guys (Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin) in the locker room. Then he and Heyman would move out of the ring.

Kurt Angle would look very depressed at this time, but he would drop a bombshell - asking what if he puts his career on the line at WrestleMania?

If Brock Lesnar defeats him, then he would never wrestle in a WWE ring again. The Universal Champion then would return to the ring with a weird smile on his face, saying 'I accept'.

On one of the RAW episodes before Fastlane, Seth Rollins will make his return (as he is not expected to miss WrestleMania) and would meet Kurt Angle in the ring. The Hall of Famer would then state the importance of his match against Lesnar. Kurt would mention that it is the most important match of his life as his WWE career would end if he loses to Lesnar.

Rollins, being a babyface, would understand that and stun the WWE Universe by saying that he had won the Royal Rumble match featuring both RAW and SmackDown Superstars. So, that means he can challenge SmackDown's WWE Champion, the new Daniel Bryan (who would have been bragging of defeating every top SmackDown superstar at Elimination Chamber, on Tuesday nights) at WrestleMania 35.

Vince McMahon would then enter the ring and make two main events official for WrestleMania 35, a Universal Championship 'Title vs Career' match between Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle, and a WWE Championship match between Daniel Bryan and the 2019 Royal Rumble winner, Seth Rollins.

WWE Fastlane - 'Title vs Career' match contract signing

WWE would announce a contract signing for WWE Fastlane, where Kurt Angle would show up with some beard on his face and a new attitude. A totally different Kurt Angle, whose confidence level will be sky high, would be in the ring hyping his WrestleMania match.

The contract signing will go on normally until Paul Heyman would take one more shot at Kurt Angle's age, after praising his achievements in wrestling. Angle would lose his cool and reverse the table before hitting the advocate, Paul Heyman with an Angle Slam.

Brock Lesnar would then get physical and take Angle down with a steel chair shot. He would go on hitting multiple F5s to stand tall at the end of the segment. While Brock Lesnar would not show up until the go-home show of WrestleMania 35, Kurt Angle would be having some match practice in several ways.

On 11 March, Kurt Angle would take on Braun Strowman in a singles match, and in a shocking upset, Angle would pin Strowman clean to stun the crowd.

Next week, he would collide with an old enemy in Baron Corbin, and would even kick out of the End of Days in that match. A newly rejuvenated Kurt Angle would then go on to defeat Corbin in the bout.

In the toughest of the three matches, Angle would battle McIntyre, and the match would be interrupted by Brock Lesnar (who would make an unadvertised appearance) and destroy Kurt Angle.

Next week on the go-home show, a face-to-face segment would be announced where security guards would stop Angle and Lesnar from getting physical before RAW goes off-air.

Kurt Angle with his new-found attitude dominates Lesnar right from the first second after the bell. Angle looks totally unstoppable as Paul Heyman would be reacting in the way only he can outside the ring.

Brock Lesnar, however, turns the game by hitting Kurt Angle in the eye. He takes Kurt Angle to Suplex City by hitting him with 7-8 suplexes. Lesnar then hits the F5 just for Angle to kick out, stunning the Beast. Lesnar then hits 3 F5s next, but still, Angle survives by kicking out at 2.9999999.

This frustrates Lesnar as he tries to repeat the Moonsault just like their last WrestleMania match. In a shocker, Kurt Angle moves out of that move just in time and gets the opening he wants.

Angle hits 6 Angle Slams on Brock Lesnar and silences the Beast Incarnate completely. He then locks him in one of the most damaging Ankle Locks, as Lesnar is left with no option but to submit.

Lesnar is tapping out in pain but Angle is not ready to leave. The referees stop the roaring Kurt Angle by showing him the Universal Championship as a weeping Kurt Angle celebrates his title win with his family (including Jason Jordan) at ringside.

This would go down as one of the most emotional moments in WrestleMania history, as an aged legend will show why he is still one of the best in the ring. The era of Kurt Angle would kick off once again...
