Kurt Angle Was Unhappy With His Last Run In WWE
Kurt Angle recently appeared on Broken Skull Sessions with the host Stone Cold Steve Austin. When they discussed about Kurt Angle return to WWE in 2017 as a General Manager, Kurt Angle revealed that he was upset with the fact that WWE had no plans to Wrestle.
He said that he don’t want to be inducted right away and revealed that he wants to wrestle in WWE. He also said that he keeps him active because WWE would bring him back one day but when he returned to WWE, they had no plans to Wrestle him, Kurt said.
“I didn’t want to be inducted right away. I wanted to wrestle. I spent that one year off, going around wrestling. I was keeping myself active because I knew WWE would bring me back. When they brought me back, they had no plans for me to wrestle. And that was upsetting to me.” (H/T: Sportskeeda)
He also revealed that he wanted GoldBerg like run in WWE after his but WWE had another plans for him.
“What I wanted to do was… I wanted to do what Goldberg did. Have a quick title run, to do a main event. That wasn’t in the plans because whenever I did wrestle, I was getting my a*s beat, or it was a tag match with Ronda. It was to promote her, it wasn’t me. It was me, Triple H, and Stephanie highlighting Ronda.” (H/T: Sportskeeda)
Later he also spoke about his retirement match against Baron Corbin at WrestleMania 35. He said that Baron was tough worker and great guy but he wanted bigger retirement match against someone like Stone Cold, The Rock or John Cena.
“And when I wrestled Baron Corbin, I would’ve preferred Stone Cold or The Rock or (John) Cena but… you know, Baron was a good kid, he was a tough worker, great guy. But to have that as my retirement match, it was a little bit, you know. They never treated me the same as they did the first time.” (H/T: Sportskeeda)
