Edited thread title as it could have been seen as a spoiler. (I don't watch WWE, and I have no idea when the show airs)

Go Angle :)

WTF is Angle doing on Smackdown? Is he gonna stay on that show or bring the belt back to Raw? IMO, he should stay, since we all know the other title is going to HHH.

The more interesting part of this, from a behind-the-scene point of view, is that WWE is announcing this in advance. In the past they've protected their tapings, and tried to prevent other web sites from reporting on what will happen in the future.

Oh wow, I didn't even realize that it was posted right on WWE.com

It will be interesting to see how this unfolds

Be sure to watch SmackDown this Friday night on UPN to watch this truly historic event unfold.
I think that they are banking on more people tuning in to watch Angle win than would tune in to be suprised.

On a side note, Peyton Manning's master lock challenge is still going strong!
