Kurt Angle said on twitter that WWE have been knocking at his door.


Who knows if thats true after his stories about UFC wanting him.


but IMO with Angles history of drink and drug abuse I dont think WWE would be interesting him for anything more then maybe some WWE network stuff.


Angle is still pretty high on my "wrestlers who are gonna die before there 50" list.

It's Angle. He was probably knocking on his own door.

I can see Angle going over as just a strictly Legends deal. I don't see him working again with a normal schedule - maybe like Nash did, but I think he's about ready to call it quits. Seriously, he's banged up and has problems.

This is assuming Kurt is telling the truth. Might not hurt to have him for the WWE Network launch...

WWE executive vice president Stephanie McMahon is featured in the latest edition of Entertainment Weekly. The WWE website notes that Stephanie's 14-hour workday was chronicled.

The 35-year-old WWE Executive VP of Creative oversees a multimedia sports entertainment empire that includes USA's Raw (Mondays at 9 p.m.) and Syfy's Smackdown (Fridays at 8 p.m). Here's how one of the most powerful women in cable filled a recent Wednesday:


8:30 a.m. Review emails about Tuesday night's taping of SmackDown
"I had to catch up on last night's show, and went back and forth with some of the writers about what worked, what didn't work, what deviated from the script, and why. I also get a Trendrr report about what reactions were like on social networks on the Web."

10:30 a.m. Merchandise approval
"My husband [WWE Superstar Triple H] and I always take two of our daughters to school in the morning, then the first big meeting was bout merchandise to make sure they line up with where we're going creatively. For one T-shirt, we go through between 5 and 10 designs, work with the talent, then have it available in about two weeks. It's a quick turnaround."

11:30 a.m. Check in with WWE Studios President Michael Luisi about the feature films No One Lives and The Day.
"We're in post production right now on a hardcore horror film called "No One Lives," which stars Luke Evans form "Immortals." We also talked about our plan to go to Sundance to see what we can acquire."

12:30 p.m. Update on programming for WWE Network with Chief Marketing Officer Michelle Wilson
"We're rolling out our own network in 2012. We're talking about a bunch of different programming ideas, but one that is already is pre-production is called "Legends House," which is a reality show that will put 8 to 10 Legends under one roof. Guys like [WWE pros] Roddy Piper, the Iron Sheik, and Dusty Rhodes. We want to make it the most interactive network in history. Even during a rerun of a show, there will be a live interactive component."

2:00 p.m. Writers meeting with Dad (and WWE Chairman and CEO Vince McMahon)
"We have 16 writers, plus Vince. Today we talked about the Royal Rumble [which airs Jan. 29], and then we talked about WrestleMania. Vince--I always call him Vince when we're at work--is very open to listening and discussing different ideas, but once he makes his final decision, he's the boss."

3:30 p.m. One-on-one meeting with Vince
"Our one-on-one topic changes from week to week, and today it was about digital products. We've partnered with Youtube to launch original programming there, and we're also relaunching our website and introducing a new app."

4:30 p.m. Interview with EW

5:30 p.m. WrestleMania meeting
"My team talked about ways to get people engaged in our main event, which is the Rock against John Cena. We want fans to take sides and engage in virtual face-offs---think Team Edward versus Team Jacob."

6:30 p.m. Daily recap meeting with Director of Operations, Talent, Shawn Cogdill
"After going over the day's decisions and taking a look at ongoing issues, my husband and I left together at 7:15 p.m. Work didn't stop until about 10:30 p.m., though--that's when I was done reading scripts while doing cardio in my home gym."

They really need to do something to get me to care about Punk Vs Johnny.


So far its just Punk making fun of John week after week while John is doing a damn good job at being Raw GM. If I was JL I would be angry at punk as well.
 
I'd love if Angle and WWE made up just so they could release a best-of DVD compilation of Angle's numerous amazing matches. Can't believe they never did that while he was still under contract.

Plus he sounds like he's starting to be unhappy with TNA. I think once he calls it quits fronm the ring, he's not going to want to stick around TNA when he can possibly be in WWE in a Legends-type deal. Hell, maybe he could even be a manager (doesn't have to take bumps, necessarily) for some up and coming wrestler.

She got a report about how a show that hasn't aired yet trended on twitter.
 
Tonight's raw should be interesting from a logistical standpoint. The Honda center hosted a rodeo event this weekend and the cleanup of all the dirt should still be going. So the road crew has their work cut off for them tonight.
