Kurt Angle announced he’ll be retiring at WrestleMania 35 and, on the latest Monday Night RAW, he revealed his opponent. Before his farewell match, Angle continues his farewell tour. Last week, he faced Apollo Crews. This week, Chad Gable stepped into the squared circle with the Olympic Gold Medalist. In a WWE.com exclusive, Angle revealed why he chose to face Gable.
“He’s the one man I wanted to face,” said Angle. “He’s one of the best technical wrestlers in sports-entertainment today so it was quite an honor to go out there and tear it up with him. He is as good as it gets.”

Angle also explained why he chose to face Baron Corbin at WrestleMania. “He’s the one guy who has gotten to me more than anybody,” said Angle. “For me to end my career by making Baron Corbin tap out, that would mean the world to me.”
