That'll be sad to see. One guy who's effectively managed to turn the clock back and is nearly as good as he ever was... and he's up against the broken husk of Kurt Angle.

Their Summerslam 2002 match is one of my favorites ever.

The farewell tour is a good idea in theory but in practice it just makes me sad for how far Kurt has declined.

I mean, I get the point of this Angle "Thank You and Goodnight" run but it feels a bit too spontaneous. They should have started this during Rumble time or something because I think there's more stars out there who, if Angle wanted, could mix it up with him.
Personally I don't care for this match but if Kurt wants to get busy then Kurt can get busy lol.

I’m listening to a song that contains the lyric “the problem with living, is one day you won’t” and it’s still not as depressing as watching Kurt wrestle.

Their Summerslam 2002 match is one of my favorites ever. I was watching it yesterday and one of the best openers I've seen in a while, crowd was hot for everything and bought into all the nearfalls, even if Angle was looking like a candycane that night. |

Angle said Rollins was one of his dream opponents. I wish it was Rollins/Angle instead, with Lesnar interfering and either making it a DQ to protect Seth from losing or doing some sort of countout distraction. They should've done Rollins/Angle at Crown Jewel instead of Ziggler/Angle.

I wonder why Kurt doesn't adapt his fighting style with his condition.
Why can't he just do matwrestling and spam submission moves (like he did in his prime anyway)?

I get why they’d want Kurt to have his last match at WM, but I feel like a better way to do it would be to have all of these matches that Kurt wants to have like he’s doing now, but have his final match be the main event event of MITB or on a special episode of Raw or SDL where he takes on like 5 other guys so that he doesn’t have to work so hard. Kurt vs. Rey vs. Bryan vs. Joe vs. AJ vs. Rollins or something. Hype it as can’t miss and as Kurt’s last match and send him off right,

What'll be sadder is when Kurt wrestles in Saudi Arabia the month after.

I think because he really never learned a thing about psychology or storytelling. For years he's been coasting on high spots and now that he's not really capable of doing those he has nothing. |

Well let's hope we get a proper match and not some 5 minute bullshit thing.
I mean, not only does this "last run" feel rushed and horribly presented, but the matches are just meh.

I don't even think Angle can adapt, he's just too slow at this point to do much of anything. Everything he does is in slow motion. I love Kurt, and I've enjoyed these matches, but he just can't do it anymore. It's like Willie Mays playing 1st base for the Mets.
