IN RING CONFRONTATION
James Storm + Kurt Angle: James Storm came out and said that Angle called him out so, since he’s never backed down from a challenge, he’s here and tells Angle that if he’s got something to say to him, to say it to his face. Angle comes out and says Storm’s either stupid, or one of the bravest men he’s ever met. He hit Storm from behind so hard he almost gave himself a concussion, but at Final Resolution, he’s not going to screw up again because when he gets in the ring with Kurt Angle, he’s in his world and it’s not going to happen again like when Sting forced him to defend the title against Storm.He’s thought about Storm day and night, but Storm said it creeps him out to know Angle thinks about him when he goes to bed. Storm says Angle wins most matches before they start because everyone’s worried about what happens when they get in the ring with an Olympic gold medalist and a 13 time World Champion. Storm rattles off a bunch of family members who died under tragic circumstances, and he’s stared death in the face and there’s nothing on this earth that scares him. Angle can say what he’s going to do all he wants, but the last time they were in the ring, Storm knocked him out and won the World Title. The next time, Storm’s going to crush Angle’s head with his boot like a beer can and, to show how intimidated he is of Angle, he’s going to turn around and if Angle feels froggy, he can go ahead and jump. Storm does indeed turnaround, and Angle does nothing. Storm says that’s what he thought, and he’ll see him this Sunday. Oh, and it’s real…it’s damn real.
