No he can come as a surprise entrant u never know as all issues sorted out between McMahon and Angle so kuch bhi ho sakta hai
Angle is supposed to have a rematch with Cody Rhodes in WCPW this February. I doubt him being a surprise entrant but if he's going to have a match its more likely only after he's inducted into HOF. Afaik i doubt him ever wrestling again and see him being the manager of some tag team like American Alpha or even end up replacing Foley as GM.
