Kurt Angle was recently announced as the headliner for the 2017 WWE Hall of Fame class. A few hour prior to the news dropping about the Hall of Fame, a new episode of Lilian Garcia’s podcast: Lilian Garcia: Making Their Way to the Ring dropped, with Angle as the guest.

Kurt was asked if he had one more match, who he would like it to be against. Angle says that he would love to face AJ Styles:
“The one that I would really love to have a final match with right now is the kid that’s the hottest right now in WWE and that’s AJ Styles. I wrestled AJ in TNA, and I can tell you that he is every bit as good as Shawn Michaels. The thing with AJ Styles, and I want everybody to realize this–you don’t have to do anything with him. He does all the work. So it’s an easy match for you. He flies around the ring. He does all the bumping”
He continued:
“AJ is a special individual where you can go in that ring and literally just stand in the middle and he does everything for you. I have never had a match with anybody that’s been so easy, and every time I worked with him it was a five-star match. So AJ’s that kind of talent. He only comes around once in a lifetime, so I’d really love to shake it up with him one more time if I could.”

It is unclear if Angle will be wrestling for WWE or if he is only going into the Hall of Fame. He said in his interview with ESPN that he didn’t talk about wrestling with Triple H when he called him about the Hall of Fame. Sign me up for AJ Styles vs Kurt Angle though……
