Kurt Angle Says WWE Has No Respect For Him

[Chriss]

The New York Post recently did an interview with Kurt Angle. The following are some highlights of what the former WWE star had to say:

"It was a complete career adaptation. It wasn't a step above, going from amateur wrestling to pro wrestling, it was going from real wrestling to sports entertainment," Angle said. "A lot of people put me up there as far as saying he's one of the best ever. And I've only been wrestling for 11 and a half years. I think that Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker, guys who have put 30 years into it deserve it. Me getting that praise after only 11 years—it's not fair.”

"When Jack Swagger copies my ankle lock and Randy Orton does my Angle Slam, it's disrespectful," Angle said. "I didn't come up with the Ankle Lock, Ken Shamrock came up with the Ankle Lock but I waited until he retired to do the Ankle Lock. That company has no respect for me."

Well, I think that Kurt pretty much prooved that he´ll never wrestle for WWE again.

Woopty do. So by Kurt's theory, who ever used a certain move first should be pissed a those who do it after him?

This guy needs to get over himself.

 

[Deuce]

I think that whenever Orton does the Angle Slam it's overrated because it's a finisher that Angle always won matches with but guys always kick out from now.... kind of stupid. I think Swagger doing the Ankle Lock is reasonable and he can look mean doing it, sometimes looks even meaner than Angle when does it.

Angle is one of the dumbest people in wrestling, but even then his stupidity astounds me at times.

He's not that dumb, he just overreacts alot. There is a difference.

 

[The Cork]

Actions speak louder than words, and when the guy gets busted for steroids and painkillers just months after Eddie Guerrero died, I perceive that to be dumb.

 

[Heisenberg]

Or when he makes twitter comments whilst drunk and then later claims he was hacked.

 

[John McHenry]

Kurt Angle good for a laugh thats about it.

Or when he makes twitter comments whilst drunk and then later claims he was hacked.

That's very common in Sports Entertainment.

 

[Kiffy Lube]

Wait? Did he really claim that he started using the Ankle Lock after Shamrock retired?

 

[John McHenry]

Wait? Did he really claim that he started using the Ankle Lock after Shamrock retired?

Yeah originally he was just saying it was his move then he started saying he used it after shamrock retired after a bunch of people called him out on that bs. The rule and it's a very loosely followed unwritten rule is if your in the same organization you don't use the same finisher, which is good business sense Kurt being a moron doesn't understand that.

 

[Troy]

Krazy Kurt at it again. Every move has been done before so nothing is new and he is an idiot if he thinks WWE are disrespecting him by letting their wrestlers use moves that he used to use. The guy really needs some PR people so that they can censor what he says to filter out the ridiculous crap that he speaks.

 

[Slim]

I've gotten to the point I pretty much ignore what he says cause its just getting ridiculous.

 

[Troy]

Someone should try to get him a reality show. It will get great ratings because he will say something controversial every episode and it will be fun in a train wreck sort of way.

 

[Slim]

You can see only so many train wrecks before you'd have to make it more awesome somehow... so gotta bring in Karen and have her... nevermind
