On tonight’s episode of WWE SmackDown (December 9), WWE made a hilarious throwback reference for fans of Kurt Angle.
While tonight’s WWE SmackDown is featuring a birthday celebration for WWE legend Kurt Angle, a backstage birthday party moment was perfectly hilarious and heartwarming!
Showing the party in progress backstage, Kurt Angle along with his special guest Gable Steveson, Madcap Moss, Emma and Shinsuke Nakamura when a special handmade card slid into the camera shot.
Focusing first on the ‘#1 Dad’ card, fans quickly recognized that it was Jason Jordan handing Angle the card and then reuniting for a warm hug!
Jason Jordan continues to work in a backstage capacity as a lead producer in WWE after last seeing in-ring action in 2018 with his career cut short due to neck injury.
For his part, fellow partygoer Gable Steveson had already been introduced to the audience on his way into SmackDown.
Meeting Braun Strowman on their way into the arena with Kurt Angle, Braun noted that they could use Steveson on SmackDown!
