In the meantime, Angle will perform on both RAW and SmackDown, facing opponents from his storied career like AJ Styles, Rey Mysterio and, during last night's RAW, Samoa Joe.

On the latest episode of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer mentioned that these opponents Angle will be facing during the build to WrestleMania 35 were all personally hand-picked by Angle. Despite the storyline telling fans differently, the one opponent Angle had no input in choosing was his WrestleMania opponent for this year, Corbin.

ROH announced today that Gordon has re-injured his right knee and won't be appearing at the Road to G1 Supercard show on Sunday (March 31). Gordon tweeted yesterday that his knee was "completely locked up" the morning after wrestling for OTT Wrestling in Belfast, Northern Ireland. He was able to fly home and had a doctor's appointment scheduled for this morning.

ROH wrote that there's "concern that Gordon may have suffered a 'bucket handle' meniscus tear, which would require surgery and keep him out of action for four-to-six months. The extent of the injury will not be known until the results of Gordon’s MRI exam are in."

In following up on Eli Drake, PWInsider.com has confirmed his current deal expires in late May.

There has been a big push to sign LAX to new deals and lock them in long-term as a top act for the company.

WWE has been recently trying to lock more of their wrestlers into longer-term contracts, with the specter of AEW being one of the reasons why.

In other WrestleMania 35 news, we noted before how Charlotte Flair shockingly won the SmackDown Women's Title from Asuka on tonight's episode. WWE has confirmed that Flair's title will not be on the line when she faces Becky Lynch and RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey in the WrestleMania 35 main event.
People speculated going all the way back to when it was rumored that Becky was going to face Ronda at Mania and rumors of Women's Tag belts existing that WWE would probably end Mania with all 4 Horsewomen having gold and embracing in the ring. If true, they did it in one of the dumbest ways possible after tonight's Smackdown.
