Backstage News On Braun Strowman’s WrestleMania Opponent, Kurt Angle On His First Wrestling Match

– Vince McMahon is very focused on finding the right opponent for Braun Strowman at WrestleMania 34. While it’s unlikely that “The Monster Among Men” will compete in a World Championship Match, McMahon still wants him to have a featured match on the show.

John Cena’s name has come up as Strowman’s opponent but Cena is also one of a few names being discussed to potentially win the Royal Rumble Match on Sunday, January 28, 2018, as McMahon is deciding between him and a few others.

WrestleMania 34 takes place on Sunday, April 8, 2018, at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans and will be streamed live around the world on the WWE Network.

– 18 years ago on Saturday, Kurt Angle had his first pro wrestling match. Having only trained for four days, Angle wrestled Christian at a training camp run by former NWA World Champion and WWE Hall of Famer Dory Funk Jr. at WWE’s headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut.

18 years ago, I was just 4 days in the business. I had my very first pro wrestling match against Christian during a WWE Dory Funk Dojo Camp/Show, in New England, USA. Time flies. #RookieYear #itstrue #tomprichard #doryfunkjr
