Guess WWE didn't want him.

Guess WWE didn't want him.

He's got it pretty good at TNA.

He's a legend there, he's well respected, TNA helped him a lot during his dark stages and supported him through everything.

I want him back in wwe. This fucking sucks. But whatever i can't say I'm surprised

With all that being said, I think he would have gone back to WWE in a heartbeat if they'd made the offer, so I agree with Swamps that they just didn't want him there.

Yeah, Angle wasn't exactly secretive about wanting to go back to WWE>

 

[Sabretooth]

Apparently wwe offered him a full time contract but he knew his body couldn't take it so he stayed in TNA.

Hadn't heard that anywhere. Do you have a source on the story?

Angle did say in a radio interview that he only wanted to work a part time schedule, I am not sure if WWE would want to give him that.

Angle mentioned that the next place he signed would be his last, and that the deal would be for one year. It is said that the deal is one year, but that cannot be confirmed. Kurt told the world that he spoke with WWE about a return, but they wanted him to work a full-time schedule.

It's a shame they never offered the man a part-time deal, like Lesnar.
