Kurt Angle Returns To Raw; Qualifies For World Cup

The Olympic Gold Medalist is back.

Kurt Angle stunned Baron Corbin, and the entire WWE Universe, when he showed up as The Conquistador on Raw. 

The Conquistador/Angle was taking part in the Global Battle Royal, a 10-man battle royal with the winner qualifying for a spot in the WWE World Cup at Crown Jewel. Corbin thought he had the bout won, but failed to eliminate the Conquistador. In the ring, the Conquistador threw Corbin around with suplexes and an angle slam before eliminating The Lone Wolf.

Angle, the General Manger of Raw, hasn’t been on WWE television since Stephanie McMahon sent him on vacation on the Aug. 20 edition of Raw. Corbin was named the Acting General Manager in his place.
