Should Kurt Angle Be The New Raw GM?

Kurt Angle is back with the WWE. He is going into the Hall of Fame. He is the kind of performer you don't expect to be inducted and never be seen again after Wrestlemania weekend. People expect him to be involved in something. People are talking about one last match. I want to bring up another role. How about General Manager of Raw?

Why not GM of Smackdown? Because Daniel Bryan is doing a solid job over there. Mick Foley has various issues. A fresh change wouldn't be bad.

Does Kurt Angle fit the GM role? He's done it before. He has been an authority figure before. He has pretty good mic skills. He has a history with Stephanie McMahon, as well as Shane. It could be a smooth transition for him to come in as an authority figure.

Just to make it clear, I am against the WWE bringing back too many people. Numbers show that all these returns are usually good for a temporary boost, but the overall loss in viewers is still continuing. The WWE should put more focus in the talent they have now and changing the atmosphere of their product. But if Kurt Angle is going to come back, you might as well use him for something. Outside of an in-ring return, a GM role is just an obvious option. And I think Raw would be the place for him.
