WrestleMania 35: 3 alternative opponents for Kurt Angle 

Will Angle find an IMPACTful opponent?
Will Angle find an IMPACTful opponent?

On the March 18 episode of Raw, Kurt Angle took to the ring to announce his opponent for WrestleMania 35. The match will be his last wrestling match.

The Olympic Gold Medalist made clear he was allowed by the McMahons to choose anyone for his final match at The Showcase of the Immortals.

Having said that, Angle disappointed many fans by announcing that he would pick Baron Corbin to face as his final opponent inside the squared circle. He claimed that he’d picked Corbin because of how difficult Corbin had made his life in the past year.

While it could be the final pick and Angle will indeed face Corbin at The Grandest Stage of Them All in what would feel like a pre-show match, reports suggest that Corbin might get swapped with a bigger opponent soon.

If that’s the case, we are going to pick 3 men who could prove to be fitting final opponents for the legendary superstar at WrestleMania 35.


#3 Bobby Roode

For those who haven’t watched TNA/Impact Wrestling, this may seem like an odd choice. However, for those who have been a fan of the promotion, you know what I’m talking about.

The two men have a history together and have delivered some great matches on TNA/Impact Wrestling which is yet to be seen inside the WWE ring.

Kurt Angle battled Chad Gable this week in a friendly match, and Bobby Roode could challenge the Hall of Famer next, but for a match at WrestleMania instead to end his career.

What’s more, Bobby Roode could turn heel in the process and disband from Chad Gable to become a threatening mid-card heel, which is lacking on the Raw roster currently.

Gable and Roode's tag team championship dream seems to be over now, and there seems to be no real reason why both should stick together anymore. Hence, it will be a good move if Roode challenges Angle as a heel and they have a match similar to their TNA/Impact Wrestling days.

#2 John Cena

The man who started his SmackDown career against Kurt Angle could face the legend in his final match after becoming a legend himself.

Cena made his WWE television debut on the June 27, 2002, episode of SmackDown by answering an open challenge by Kurt Angle. The rest is history.

Today the two men are arguably the biggest names in the wrestling industry, and arguably the most accomplished active wrestlers today.

If Kurt Angle is going to bow out, there is no better man to do it against than the leader of Cenation. John Cena would simply lay down to take the pin for his old time rival.

Even if the match-up doesn't look great, it sure will become one considering that two of the biggest superstars will be a part of it and Angle will get the final match he actually deserves before bidding farewell to the squared circle.

#1 The Undertaker

Will the fans get what they deserve?

Speaking of legends, how dare we forget that The Undertaker has not retired from wrestling yet?

If The Undertaker is going to compete at this year’s grand stage, then it has to be against Kurt Angle in his final match. The history between these two men has spanned over the years, and they have become idols for most of the wrestlers backstage today.

A match between the two would certainly feel main event level, even though both men are past their prime now.

Imagine if Kurt Angle takes to the ring again next week for a friendly match, but the lights go out and The Undertaker appears to issue a challenge to the former Olympian, turning the entire booking on its head.

Baron Corbin is definitely not the best choice for the match and The Undertaker challenging Angle in a Career Vs. Career match would make things much more interesting!
