Kurt Angle recently returned to WWE

Kurt Angle made a recent one-off appearance on the December 9 episode of SmackDown, which marked his 54th birthday. The Olympic Medalist was used as a vehicle to further different storylines. He was seen interacting with Gable Steveson, The Alpha Academy, Rey Mysterio, and a bunch of different top stars backstage at the show.

The show concluded with Angle almost getting beat up by the Alpha Academy before Gable Steveson made the save in a milktruck, a callback to Angle’s famous 2001 segment. After the show went off the air, a number of stars led by Rey Mysterio sang Happy Birthday to Angle. Triple H even put his booker hat on the shelf to come out and celebrate with the Hall of Famer.

With Angle being on good terms with Triple H and WWE at the moment, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him make a few more televised appearances in the coming months.
