| #1 Posted on 21.5.03 0937.43 Reposted on: 21.5.10 0940.36 | You know, I thought about how Kurt Angle could make a great comeback. Then, I hit it. We're knee deep in this Mr. America stuff. What if, one day two weeks or something from now, Vince finally unmasks Mr. America, but it's not Hogan...it's Angle! Then Angle could go on about how he's the REAL Mr. America because of the Olympics and his other accomplishments. A match between him and Hogan could take place, and the winner would be the REAL Mr. America. You have to admit, that would spice up a currently vanilla angle (no pun intended). thoughts?

I've been thinking that as good as (surprisingly) good as I've found this angle, it could all go pear-shaped rather quickly if they're not careful.
This is one of those times I'm actually hoping for some kind of brutal bait-and-switch (i.e. the mask comes off and sure enough it's "somehow" not Hogan).
Heck, I thought Luger would have been an ideal candidate (I really can't believe I just typed that, but it's true).
Since Luger's out of the question, however, Angle's as good a choice as any. | CANADIAN BULLDOG

It's really too bad there is no one even relatively close to looking like Hogan out there, in terms of physique, height, skin color, because that would be the ultimate payoff for me. Have someone show up in the mask for a match and have Hogan stroll out to give his support to Mr. America. But I can't see that happening. | ThreepMe

However, the rumored plan is for Angle to feud with Lesnar culminating in a match at the first Smackdown pay-per-view Vengenance in July, or Summerslam in August. Of course, that would be to quote Lesnar "fine and dandy."

He wouldn't have to pull a real impersonation off. Everyone could know it wasn't Hogan even before the mask was removed. They would all just think Angle is a dweeb for trying to fool the audience and failing miserably.

However, that means Angle is mixing it up with the likes of Vince, Hogan, Piper, O'Haire and even Zach Gowen once he returns from OVW. That's not Angle's place whatsoever.
I'd much prefer him with Show, Lesnar, Rhyno, Benoit, Cena and Heyman, which has been the rumoured story arc for Angle's return. | Marty McFly

My guess would be the folks who are giving Mr. America the dirty great pops every week.
I've still got a feeling that this angles gonna end with Vince booking a ppv match between Hogan and Mr America.
If the 2 of them turn up, Hogans suspension gets lifted. If they fail, both are fired. Dunno who they'd get to dress up in the America get up to play it out, but I'm pretty sure whenever and however he's unmasked it wont be Hogan underneath. |
