Due to personal issues, Kurt Angle has been granted an early release from his contract. WWE looks forward to establishing a new relationship with Kurt in the near future.
The only Olympic gold medalist in WWE history, Kurt Angle arrived in 1999 and quickly became one of the most decorated champions in sports-entertainment history. "The Wrestling Machine" is not only a six-time World Champion, but also held the Intercontinental Championship and WWE Tag Team Championship; he also won the 2000 King of the Ring tournament. Recently joining ECW, Angle’s unmatched intensity was rivaled only by his technical and athletic in-ring prowess.

-
brutal 12 inch arms.
-
His head keeps getting bigger and his body keeps getting smaller. I hear his hands are permanently numb and his arms very weak.
-

You sound serious...you are aware of the fact that its all fake and planed in advance right?
Mentioning those "championships" he won is like saying Van Dam should go to prison because he killed many people in his movies.
-
this was off the WWE site!
do you really think it as you being "fake and planned" meant these guys are not athletes?
the fuckin guy won a gold medal with these these injuries
2 cracked vertebrae
2 herniated disks
4 pulled muscles............... yeah he is a faker
a faker with..............
2-time NCAA Division I champion
USA Junior Freestyle champion
2-time USA Senior Freestyle champion
Junior World Freestyle champion
1996 Olympic gold medal in freestyle wrestling
these titles were not planned in advance

Planned in advance--yes. Fake--no. Even though it is pre-arranged, you have to be able to work a match as if it is real. Get the crowd to react to your ability in the ring whether you're kicking an opponent's ass/getting your own ass kicked. Plus, if they're gonna put the belt on you--the company is hoping that you will able to put asses in the seats.

WWE wrestling is just a soap opera.. nothing more.
A testament to marketing and hype.
And a great way to keep idiots off the street.

Hahahahaha, I'd love to see him bust your arms in half. ya think your arms would mean anything in a match with him?
-

Nah, it would all be about the prearranged outcome of the fight.
Just FYI, WWE is not a sport either. Another form of pageantry.

Obviously I don't mean in a pro wrestling match.

In it's highest form what goes on in the ring is a sport as much as figure skating, but most of the time it's pretty shitty. And guys can be punished for performing too well.
Angle has mentioned gassing when wrestling Steve Austin. Where as Steve was fine. He said Steve could have had his way with him at that point. What a homo.

I heard that they are letting him go to make room for this new tag team...

A good friend, who jobs when the WWE is in town, told me that when the guys get boared they have real matches, just to see who's the best wrestler. Angle is hands down the best. He made Paul Wright (The Big Show) quit in under a minute. I know He's got a ton of injuries, so He must need some time to heal and deal with the divorce. He'll be back. He loves what He does, from what I'm told.

I used to love wrestling but have long since forgotten about it. I never did like kurt angle. He never had the presence and marketablility that a "real" badass like steve austin or the rock had... If kurt were a bodybuilder he'd be the Vince Goodrum of the sport.
-
i don't understand how he can stand there trying to look all mean and intimidating with arms like a ten year old girl, hahahaha.
The dude is a legitimate bad ass.
And as a performer, he's top 3. He may be the most well rounded wrestler out there. He can do it all. It's a shame he's been hurt for so long.
However, I believe he's suffered some nerve damage due to his neck injuries over the years. Which may explain why his arms are shriking.........

I met Kurt angle at Century 3 Mall in West Mifflin Pa back in like 2000. Nice guy I shook his hand he had the sweatiest hands I ever shook and his wife was hot. I hear she used to be a stripper.

Kurt's the man

My body is so beat up and run down, I can’t even think straight,” Kurt Angle tells WWE.com in an exclusive interview Saturday concerning his early release from his contract with World Wrestling Entertainment. Angle and WWE officials mutually agreed to end Angle’s relationship with the company on Friday.
Angle says seven years of non-stop wrestling has taken a major toll on his body, his mind and his family. “I need my body to reheal and rehab, I have done this for too long without a break. I haven’t been able to really enjoy my life. I haven’t seen my family, I’ve had problems with medication - I’m just fried physically and mentally.”
Angle’s business manager David Hawk claims, “Kurt’s in a tremendous amount of pain, he’s used prescription medication to deal with it. Kurt has come to the conclusion that unless he can get in the ring without the use of pain medication then he doesn’t need to be in there. He realizes he was just endangering himself and his opponents.”
The last straw for Angle seems to have occurred on August 13th, 2006, at an ECW live event in White Plains, New York. Angle was wrestling Rob Van Dam in a match where both competitors were fueled by the passionate ECW fans. “The crowd was wild,” Angle says. “Early on in the match, I pulled my groin, but I kept going, feeding off the crowd. Then I pulled my abdominal muscle off the pelvic bone, but I kept going as the crowd grew more wild. Finally, I blew out my hamstring, but we finished the match. The crowd stood and applauded - a standing ovation and that meant so much to me.”
Ironically that would be Angle’s last match.
WWE.com asked Angle if he would ever return to competition in WWE. Angle says “I can’t tell you that right now, I need to heal up mentally and physically. Until then, I can’t even think about returning.”
But Angle says WWE Chairman Vince McMahon told him the door is always open. “Vince says when I’m ready, if I’m ever ready, to come back just sign on the dotted line. I’ll tell you if I do return I’m going back to my roots, training on the mat like my amateur days. Longevity is the key.”
Hawk seems confident Angle will be in the ring again someday.
Angle has a final message to his legion of WWE and ECW fans. “Don’t be concerned, this move was for the best. It was a privilege to be able to compete for all of you. I’d like to say thank you.”

how come all these wreslers are so red in the face? High blood pressure?

wow that guy is a warrior....

Kurt is a class act. I wrestled in a tournament he was in back in 1994. Everyone knew then he had what it takes to be a world class olympic wrestler which is probably one of the hardest olympic sports to do well in. Over the years I saw Kurt numerous times when the WWE would travel to RI, Boston. You could see over the years being on the road 300 days a year and the daily bumps these guys have to take that Kurt was suffering. When Kurt signed with WWE he already had pre-existing injuries. Compound that with the daily rigors of wrestling, though fake, he was one of the more active high flying wrestlers which made his injuries worse. I wish Kurt the best of luck and hope he fully recovers. Nothing worse than trying to play with your own kids and you can't even lift your arms/head. Rest well Kurt, the WWE has taken another hit. Austin, the Rock, now Angle....but don't worry fellow bb's, HHH and his ugly mug still run the joint.

Kurt Angle is a very intense wrestler
-
Kurt is done.
-
Remember folks, he is a professional wrestler. Not a bodybuilder. So please think before you remark or comment.
PB
-
Angle - in real life - was just too intense + dedicated to his work.
His will >>> his body.
Sadly, many athletes are like that - they just can't learn to DE-intensify after a lifetime of training.
And yeah, Olympic wrestling has gotta be perhaps THE hardest sport to be in.
I hope he can heal up, rest up, + adjust his mental state to one more balanced.
More to life than athletics or sports entertainment.
Best of luck to him.

what a loser

I believe that Vince pays these guys too much money and they wind up becoming primadonnas and then they leave....
Vince should take some lessons from the IFBB....Our guys just keep coming back for more, abuse their bodies like crazy....and no paycheck! :o

In this day and age society in general is just so lazy when it comes to entertainment that they can't sit still and absorb a good match that clearly demonstrates good vs bad. Video gaming, tevo and the like show a change in society towards impatients and it carries over into wrestling. Fans today want action NOW. You can even see the difference in MMA compared to years ago. Now they will call stalling pretty fast and get the guys up or in the middle. Years ago Gracie could be in guard for ever to get position, not anymore. The fans their want KNOCKOUTS. I think pro wrestling matches were better in the 80's...still fast paced but the move set wasn't as crazy and it was more believable. As far as the salary's go only the top guys make real good money. You have to realize that their is not any health insurance, vacation etc...you work you get paid. The opportunity IS there to make a lot of money, but you need skill, luck and timing. Kurt is an awesome performer. It's incredible that he could change that mat wrestling mentality to become a great pro wrestler....that is very very rare.

I really wanna find out the cause of his release, I'm curious that it's more than something personnal

Good post. I was an 80's NWA fan.

This guy was good when he first joined. He was going head to head with Austin. Then he became a pathetic wrestler with no respect from the fans (bad career Planning) he can never his previous Ring presence and Fan respect as the early days.
He also has a wide midsection and tiny arms

What?? Are you mental? No respect from the fans? The guy gets more respect from wrestling fans than any other wrestler alive today.
As for his solid mid section, that's because the guy is an ATHLETE, not a bodybuilder or a person interested in winning BB contest. When you are a athlete the mid section better be thick and solid and stable not weak and pretty and will break in half after the first fall. BIG DIFFERENCE.

i don't understand how he can stand there trying to look all mean and intimidating with arms like a ten year old girl, hahahaha.
YA, to bad they arent massive pipes youve got load master!
