Kurt Angle Threatens to Strip Brock Lesnar of Universal Title; Issues Huge ‘Ultimatum’ for Tomorrow’s WWE Raw

In the opening moments of tonight’s WWE Extreme Rules event in Pittsburgh, Raw General Manager Kurt Angle announced that he had reopened negotiations with Paul Heyman to work out Brock Lesnar’s next defense of the WWE Universal Championship.

However, according to the Olympic Gold Medalist, Lesnar has shot down every opponent announced for a potential title match, and in fact is now outright refusing to return to WWE television after making his return to the UFC octagon. As noted, the “Beast Incarnate” has officially re-entered the USADA testing pool, and will be eligible to fight against on January 8, 2019.

Angle claimed at Extreme Rules that he was through dealing with Lesnar dodging the company, and has announced the following ultimatum. Either the champion can appear on WWE Raw tomorrow night, or he can come to terms on his next title defense immediately, OR he will be stripped of the Universal Championship.
