The Kurt Angle mystery is finally over. In an inspired performance, the RAW General Manager spilled his own beans. The secret that’s been chasing him for weeks now can rest: Jason Jordan is Kurt Angle’s son.
During his promo, Angle said that he was contacted by an old college girlfriend who notified him of the situation. Angle’s “Ex” placed Jordan up for adoption when he was born, but the time had come for father and son to be united. With a gleam in his eye, Angle emphatically introduced his boy as a new member of RAW.

The new father and son will be live on the WWE Network following RAW.
For Jordan, this represents a gaudy opportunity for success. He and his former tag team partner, Chad Gable look to be officially done. American Alpha was a fun tag team but one that may have had trouble in the long run. A singles run for Jordan could be a blast. He’s freakishly strong and eerily athletic. He may not have the same “monster” feel that Brock Lesnar owns, but they share multiple characteristics.
Most fans thought that this big secretive plot would somehow get Kurt Angle back into a WWE ring. For now, that should be considered dead.
However, it does seem likely that Angle is prepping for a return to ring action. In an interview with Esquire, Angle wasn’t too subtle about wrestling in WWE in the near future:
“Well right now I’m just concentrating on my behind-the-scenes role as General Manager. I haven’t even had a physical yet and I don’t expect I will have one until they [the WWE] have some more detail of what they want me to do down the line. But is there a possibility? Yeah, there is a definite possibility!” he said.

“I think it’s more than likely it will happen. I don’t know if it has to do with this new storyline that’s going on right now, but I’m sure that it will happen eventually. I still haven’t taken a physical though so I’m not going to get my hopes up until I do that,” Angle added.
If that weren’t enough, Angle has an emotional incentive to hop back in the ring one more time:
“Well I have three little ones who have actually never seen me wrestle – a 6-year-old, a 4-year-old, and a 7-month-old – so I’ve always wanted to return to them. I want to show them what daddy can really do,” he said.
