He's gonna team with The Shield against The Miz, Cesaro, Sheamus, Braun Strowman & Kane

He's replacing Roman, who is one of, apparently, a few wrestlers that are sick. Another replacement is AJ Styles taking Bray's place against Finn.

I seriously thought the WWE's website, Twitter and everything was hacked when this was announced. Like, I get that sudden replacements being needed for a situation like this is a thing, but the choices make no sense. Kurt Angle, who hasn't wrestled for WWE in 11 years, is having his first match back with them as a replacement for someone who is sick. No big build up or anything. They could've picked so many people to replace Roman. Meanwhile, there's AJ, a face on SD, taking the spot of a heel on RAW for a RAW-brand match. The choices just don't make any sense.

Don't get me wrong, I'm fucking hype for it. Finn vs. AJ, Bullet Club leader vs. Bullet Club leader. Kurt Angle returning to wrestling. It's very hard to not be hype as fuck for that. The choices for replacements just make very little sense and I really thought, when I first saw WWE Tweet about it, that it was fake. It's definitely legit, though.

Heard about this from my friend like an hour or two ago... Damn

Literally makes no sense but still, Kurt Angle back in action is amazing. Very dumb choice for AJ vs. Finn IMO but still that's gotta be a damn good match.

What is this "viral infection" that's going on though?

The Kurt Angle one doesn't need to make sense tbh, he's the Raw GM, it's kinda fitting that he would fill in to take down the heels. The AJ Styles replacement makes no sense whatsoever though.

This is awesome if you missed Angle's TNA run.

I seen him wrestle until he finished up with TNA. While he was still good in the ring I can't ignore all the pain killer abuse and whatnot. I hope he's clean now. I imagine he's been wanting to get back into the ring.

Honestly, I don't care how dumb it is. I had like ZERO hype for this until Balor/Styles was announced. As much as I love Kurt Angle, I'm not a big fan of the 5 v 3 TLC match.

I see I'm not the only person who thought it was a hack. I had to read it three times. Like a smackdown guy coming on a RAW PPV feels weak and just disrespects the brand split. A new wyatt disciple would have made more sense

Man, imagine what’s going to happen if they put Jason Jordan out there instead.

That would be amazing

I'd put both of them in there. 5 on 4

Then Roman shows up anyway to even the odds.
