As everyone's aware, next week, Kurt Angle makes his much anticapated return to Smackdown. He's either rumored to remain a heel or become a face.

I think if he's to become a face, he needs new theme music. His old music is currently used by Team Angle.

What do you think about this?

    He's either rumored to remain a heel or become a face.


Interesting rumor

But seriously, I don't think he should change his music if he becomes a face. If he becomes a face the first thing he would probably do is get rid of Team Angle so there would be no problem. He has a very recognisable theme so it would be a huge loss for him if he came out to some new music. In my opinion Goldberg's music change hurt him at Backlash, and a change of music would hurt Kurt.

I don't think the question is about Team Angle (Benjamin and Haas) because if they remain heels and Angle turns face, they won't really be part of his team anymore. I think the bigger question is that if Kurt is going to be a face, what about "You Suck." I mean, I am a big Angle fan, and at Wrestlemania, I may have chanted just that. It's fun. It goes too well with the music.

Regardless of whether he comes in as a babyface or a heel I don't think they should ever change his music. It's branded to him perfectly like Flair's.

I think with the way Team Angle is carrying around Kurt's picture and his medals and the recent promos of Kurt returning I think its pretty safe to think, maybe to me, that Kurt can come back as a heel. All he needs to do is do a good run in or come out to babyface pop only to cut a heel promo.

But I do think maybe with Team Angle having his music they could give Kurt his music from WWE Anthology. It almost sounds the same but it has more of a heavy beat.

if Angle does come back as a face, regarding the chants...
ever since I started watching wrestling, I've grown accustomed to me and my friends shouting An-Gle! An-Gle! during the main parts.
Which makes it interesting for the "Angle!" (You suck!) "Angle!" (You suck!) at PPVs at the sports bar.

But on topic, I doubt he's facing up, as SD needs a top heel. But if he is, then the rock version is fine.

On WWE.com Kurt said that if he was coming back as a face he was going to get new music. Straight from the horses mouth so to speak. The headline to the story is "angle cleared to return". Or something similar.

Here's the link (wwe.com) for those who haven't seen it. (Assorted other good Angle-stuff in the article besides.)

There are many thing you do not touch in this business, and Angle's theme music is one of them. Another is him turning face. If he went face, Team Angle would simply become Two Guys In Velour Suits.

Then keep him a heel!

If they'd kept his come back vignettes over the top like the first "NFL Films" sounding one, there probably wouldn't be a problem with people cheering him that much when he returns. He'd the the big pop for a while but the crowd would still be ready and willing to boo him. (Like it used to be with Triple H - the old "pop and boo".)

SD NEEDS a top heel other than VKM.

*Please* let him remain heel.

I personally liked the "I Don't Suck" Theme from Anthology which they finally released after he used the theme for uh the summer of 2001. That theme was pretty jazzed up yet I can't think of a more suitable for him. Yet the WWE will probably think of a new retreaded harmonics for him anyway.

There's simply no reason to change Kirk Angel's music. It works for boos and chants. It works for cheers.

Rename Team Angle and give them their own theme if they aren't with him anymore. They took on Angle's music and motif and carried his pictures and medals to get that rub. There's no reason for them to keep any of Angle's signature material if they aren't alligned. It should all go back to Kurt who worked his Olympic ass off to get it over.

I figure his return will play out similar to Benoit's last year. He'll come back and soak up the adulation like a face, then do some incredibly dickish heel move before the night is over. A music change is unnecessary.

He's going to get the face reaction, there's no doubt about it. The last image of him before he left was the Brock hug. And tonight...

***SPOILER***

...we get a swank desire video.

Schippewreck,

The guy in the Spider Man custume, did he die from that move because it looks like he landed right on the back of his head/neck. That is the most painful looking thing I have seen since Nathan Jones' "kick".

By the way, good call with Angle. He will come out and be happy to be here doing it for the fans, piss off Team Angle and at the end of the night, he will Angle Slam someone (Mr. America?) and rejoin Team Angle and be the heel he needs to be.

Of course not, the clip is from Smackdown: Shut Your Mouth. That means he immediately no-sold the move and went on to win the match! :-)

You may resume the topic now...

Angle's music matches him perfectly, especially as a heel, but I don't think the door should be closed on him having new "face" music. His current music, while fitting, has that WWF "1995 synthesizer" sound to it, and it really could be used on anyone (and it was). Angle could use something more personal, I think.

Of course, if they do change his theme music, either he'll get some crappy New Metal music or some rap like the intro to SMACKDOWN! He's definitely better off keeping his current theme if that's the case.

I'd like to see Kurt Angle return as a face because it'd delay the Lesnar/Angle rematch for a few more months and give it a better build up.

Maybe turn Benoit and Rhyno heel out of jealousy that Kurt got this new "revolutionary" neck surgery while they had to sit at home for a year? That Kurt gets videos after being out for a few weeks and they got NOTHING? It could be a compelling storyline because there's just the right hint of reality in it.

I just hope they don't mix Kurt's return into this Mr. America/Piper/Vince/Tenacious Z garbage.
