On Monday night's edition of WWE Raw, Vince McMahon made a surprise appearance on the broadcast to announce that since Commissioner Stephanie McMahon would be out of action "for some time" due to being put through a table at WrestleMania 33 during the Non-Sanctioned Match between Triple H and Seth Rollins, Raw clearly needed a new General Manager to run things.

McMahon then announced that newly-inducted WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle would be Raw's new General Manager. Angle came to the ring and told the crowd that it was great to be back on Raw.

Angle has served in a General Manager position before with WWE, having been in that same position on SmackDown back in 2004.
