Although the talks only appear to be very preliminary, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that Kurt Angle’s name has been brought up within WWE and it appears the company could be making a play to bring him back later this year.

Angle, who turns 41 this December, could be faced with a big decision if he is approached by WWE about a return. His wife Karen was said to be a major force behind him leaving WWE and now she is no longer a factor with the two splitting up recently. The negative is that Angle is still pretty banged up and is much smaller than when he left WWE in 2006.

While many feel his size could work against him, the belief is that WWE would give him an easier schedule and he would make more money. Angle has dropped a ton of weight in the last couple years, and tells friends he is much more comfortable this way. The plus to staying with TNA is that he is always guaranteed a top spot, his size will never be an issue and even if WWE offers him an easier schedule it will never be as easy on him physically as the TNA schedule is. The general opinion on Angle is that the smartest thing he could do is stay in TNA, but Angle’s career is also coming to a close and the possibility of an increase in pay becomes even more important at that stage of his career.

I think this past week's Smackdown was one of the best in Smackdown's history. Chris Jericho , EDGE , CM Punk , John Morrison , Jeff Hardy did their best .

WWE.com is reporting that Matt Hardy suffered a broken right hand during the match with his brother, Jeff Hardy, at Sunday night’s Backlash pay-per-view.

Matt will be required to wear a cast, according to the Web site. The story did not address how much time he would miss, but wrestlingobserver.com reported that the early estimation is four to six weeks.

Presuming the injury is not a work, the timing is unfortunate for Matt, who is coming off the most high profile program of his career and seemed to be slotted as the No. 3 heel on Raw behind Randy Orton and The Big Show.

WrestleMania XXV perhaps fell a bit short of expectations three weeks ago, but Sunday night’s Backlash pay-per-view delivered in a big way.

All three major championships changed hands, and five of the six scheduled matches on the card were very good. The one that didn’t fall into that category – Kane versus CM Punk – wasn’t bad, nor was it anything special.

When all was said and done, former Rated RKO members Edge and Randy Orton were world champions, and two of WWE’s biggest stars – John Cena and Triple H – were carried out on stretchers. I believe the two world title belts now are exactly where they should be.

As expected, the show-stealer was the Last Man Standing Match between Edge and Cena. I find it utterly amazing that Cena consistently has strong matches on pay-per-view, yet there are still fans out there who don’t think he can work.

Edge defeated John Cena in a Last Man Standing Match to win the world heavyweight title: This was an excellent, 28-minute match worthy of what was billed as the final encounter to this fantastic rivalry. The crowd was hot before these two even locked up, as both guys had intense facial expressions to play up the fact that it was their last match against each other. Cena was on offense much of the way, but no matter what he did, Edge kept getting up at nine. Cena had a look of disbelief a couple times when Edge got to his feet. In what appeared to be a pretty dangerous spot, Cena threw the steel steps over the top rope onto Edge, who was standing outside the ring. Cena also landed the Attitude Adjustment off the middle rope. Then, in a holy-you-know-what moment, Cena gave Edge an Attitude Adjustment while standing on top of the announce table, tossing Edge into the crowd. I hope all the fans that Edge landed on were plants (they’d have to be), because one guy wearing a Cena shirt was on the floor next to Edge looking out of it.

Cena and Edge then fought in the crowd, going all the way up to the concourse level before coming back down the steps, where Cena hit a bulldog onto the equipment area. Edge rebounded, but couldn’t put away Cena after an Impaler DDT on the stage and a chair shot to the back of his head. As Cena recovered, got Edge up on his shoulders and was about to hit another Attitude Adjustment, The Big Show (I called it!) suddenly appeared on the stage and chokeslammed Cena through a large spotlight, creating an explosion and a ball of fire on impact. This time, Cena did not get up, and Smackdown had a world champion again. Cena had his neck placed in a brace and was taken out on a stretcher. Even though Edge – now a nine-time world champion – needed Big Show’s interference to win, he comes out of this match looking strong because he took everything that Cena dished out and refused to lose.

Now shut the f*** up ... John Cena !

EDGE will be the winner at Backlash this sunday.

The reason behind this is that Smackdown has no world title now.

Only EDGE can bring back that title from John Cena cause he is the Rated R Superstar & he will take the ultimate oppourtunity to beat the hell out of John Cena.
