- MMA reporter Ariel Helwani interviewed UFC President Dana White this weekend and noted on Twitter that White revealed some tidbits on Kurt Angle. Angle apparently tried out for The Ultimate Fighter reality show but didn't make it because he failed a physical. White also told Helwani that he had no plans to book Angle vs. Kimbo Slice on UFC pay-per-view. Helwani wrote:

"Other big news out of the post-fight presser Dana scrum, was Dana saying Kurt Angle didn't make it on TUF because he failed his physical. He didn't not want to elaborate but he did add that he never wanted to book Kimbo vs. Angle on PPV. That video coming later."
Go figure that he would fail the physical but just for kicks would have been interested in seeing him on there.

Angle is above normal people so him getting cut for this reason when he would be the biggest draw on the show isn't something I agree with. I wouldn't watch it either way, though.

Angle is a solid wrestler, we all know this; but unless he's secretly been working on his standup I don't think he'd have a chance. I would have liked to see him on the show, if only to (as Defiant said) come back down to reality.

You're a 42 year old professional wrestler, Kurt. Just deal with it.
