Edge on his hair vs hair match with Kurt Angle

Kurt Angle is a 14-time professional wrestling world champion, with titles collected in WWE, TNA, and Japan. He is in both the WWE and TNA/Impact Hall of Fames, a two-time NCAA Division 1 National Champion, and has also won a gold medal in freestyle wrestling at the 1996 Summer Games with, as he likes to say, ‘a broken freaking neck.’ At every stop in his career, Angle has reached the top of the mountain, and now he’s taking his Three I’s; Intensity, Intelligence, and Integrity, to the podcast world as he joins host Conrad Thompson to take a look back at some of the matches, feuds and moments that turned an Olympic gold medalist into one of the greatest sports entertainers of all time. It’s True. It’s damn true

I was sad when Kurt lost his hair lol 😂 but looking back great move. It was a win for both guys

[@Mechachu]

I loved the toupe strapped to his head xD

[@redmanr5522]

I hope Raven was watching and going this is what you get for 2001, when you ambushed me and broke my leg during the alliance era.

[@midcardheelhd8522]

Everyone loves to talk to Kurt. There's Brian Gumballs in the world who ask the rough questions. There's the Joe Rogans/Steve Austins that can talk about nothing forever. Then there are the Terry Bradshaws that athletes want to talk to and share locker room talk. Kurt is wrestling's Terry Bradshaw. Why doesn't Vince have him on his team interviewing wrestlers about wrestling. Stone Cold is the man, but Kurt is different breed and people need to take notice.

[@redrain860]

Never insult Austin like that ever again.

[@juniorhernandez3347]

@@redrain860 there’s a talent to talking about “nothing” forever. Have you ever heard his stories on the lochness monster and the shower incident?

[@artisticskillz01]

Have you seen the Dean ambrose podcast with Steve? Or the one with vince? Steve is grilling them

[@taltorelli]

Edge started the you suck chants, and shaved kurt bald. Damn

[@cesarpac3723]

Put him over lol

[@MASTER3371]

Didn’t the rock do that? In 2000 or 2001

[@brocklesnar3802]

Edge didn’t start them, he just added fuel to the fire when they first began

[@randybeans1984]

Just rewatched judgment day 2002 y'all match still stands up as one of the best matches of my childhood.

[@homelessinpeckham1094]

Edge definitely had more to lose in that match lol.

[@thelexanator7092]

i dont think edge would have looked good bald anyway

[@TheOmegaRiddler]

They would need garden sheers to get rid of the hair edge had back then.

[@Nixkrude79]

Fun fact: Kurt and Vince Ribbed Edge had him thinking he was gone lose and they didn't tell him he was going over til the day of the event

[@MASTER3371]

Whoever thought edge was losing was a real idiot lol

[@IncredibleFulk1]

“Hey Angle, since you’re sick of everyone chanting You Suck! Well for now on, they are going to chant Your Bald!”

[@tamariomartin9080]

“Hit the music!”

[@antanderson3649]

Kurt & Edge = Wrestling GOATs

[@JeffZoul19]

I didn't know Kurt was losing his hair already when that match happened, I always wondered why he never grew it back, it looks good bald but I was curious

[@MT-we4vu]

It was pretty obvious I thought

[@BishopWalters12]

You could see it in 99 when he first started.

[@DTownNash]

You could tell He was going bald when he leaned down. Lol.

[@dsadunnodudeish4535]

​@@MT-we4vu When you're a kid you dont notice

[@mrmoviemanic1]

It's so funny how despite 2000-2002 Angle's character was so high profile, that Edge during that time would always be his foil for the most part despite being a tag team competitor mostly.

[@cesarpac3723]

Exactly, seems to me they were building towards a career long feud between the 2

[@shubhamchaudhary5916]

Fun began after the match when angle began to wear wig and said his hair grown back in a week

[@musicaddikt1]

Edge's passion for wrestling is underrated. The guy loves that job alot alot.

[@Cratossama]

He should win the new championship in this last run

[@matwol1365]

The You’re Bald chant would have been a perfect catchphrase as the You Suck chant.

[@samuelreese6357]

There was no way Edge was getting his head shaved at that point. And Edge is Canadian. His olympic hero is probably some hockey player.

[@mahhaw3725]

It was great til the 4:58 part when the mark started to talk

[@michaelaburns734]

After this PPV Kurt Angle went from a Amateur to a G.O.A.T. Wrestler on the planet

[@troyancheta3803]

I think bald current day Edge with that beard will look good on him.

[@princeofstrongstyle6683]

Correction: This clip was from the Edge Interview, not the Invasion 2001 PPV episode.

[@Reggular]

Kurt I can’t lie as a kid and wrestling fan i hated you, but as I’ve grown i really appreciate you and you’re truly a one of the goats of my era much love

[@johngonzalez6690]

I feel the same way about Edge

[@TheViper4Life]

Sorry Edge, even 2002 me...who was still a fan who was learning the business, didn't believe you were losing that match lol.

[@LuciferTheDogKiller]

You never know.

[@TheViper4Life]

Clearly I did know.

[@BigBoss1228]

@@TheViper4Life honestly back then, it was easy to tell, but man while Vince was in power recently you couldn't say what would happen for sure until it happens since he likes to change his mind on the fly

[@redrick8900]

@@BigBoss1228 Vince being in power is exactly why it wasn't happening. He loves giant muscly blonde men with long hair. There is no way he's compromising that.

[@dante5622]

I liked Kurt Angle better with hair

[@wwfchampion7222]

I 100 percent agree 👍

[@djmeduna2009]

Wow

[@bigjakepowers6649]

I believe Edge about how Kurt is.

[@Jale299]

tbh kurt looks better bald

[@stanmarsh6853]

No

[@petepwrr]

Very memorable programme, all the kids in school talking about it at the time

[@Mysterybabylon696]

Underated rivalry.

[@HoustonOilersForever]

Edge voice sounds like Mick Foley

[@giosamigos]

wow i've been living under a rock! Didn't know kurt had a show! Love it! Subbed!👏

[@Dakatari]

A silly gimmick match but it work majority of the fans enjoyed it

[@michaelbull4344]

Such an underrated rivalry this was 2002 angle and edge on there way up

[@chaomac]

i couldnt even imagine Kurt with hair these days He looks much better without hair

[@wwfchampion7222]

No he looks better with hair

[@BishopWalters12]

@@wwfchampion7222 Not in 2002 because his hair was so thin at that point and going bald was the best move.

[@BishopWalters12]

@@wwfchampion7222 That isn't true, Kurt's hair was thinning and It was his idea to shave his head because he knew his hair was thinning.

[@aldecursoe7173]

good thing Kurt didn't end up like Raven....🤔

[@walterreed5849]

they believed edge could have lost cuz on an episode of smackdown kurt took a chunk out of edges head

[@mattuk56]

I never really liked edge, I like how he wrestles since he came back. Before he was forcefully retired he did the same match every time like Ric Flare. Its cool 2 see Edge back doing some different things.

[@mrmoviemanic1]

That's all cool, I can see why like I can see people not enjoying Cena or Orton as Edge kinda did fall into that mold for a time, but I think that was mainly because the TOP talent needs to slow down more and take better care to prevent any injuries.

[@redrick8900]

Edge has one of the most diverse and continuously evolving move sets including high spots in wrestling.

[@erichoextraordinary2533]

To me the your bald chant should’ve lasted till after wrestlemania before going back to only the you suck chant.

[@kickflipdemon]

jd 02 was my first ppv and saw kurt get shaved and hiac hogan taker and i was hooked and angle wig had me convinced there was a cure for baldness but i was a kid lol

[@senecaturnpike9179]

I knew that Kurt was getting his head shaved bc of all the reasons edge said for why he thinks the fans thought he’d get his head shaved

[@GamerToday]

Kurt looks so good bald theres 0 reason he should have ever had hair in his prime. Like u think kurt when you think bald guy. He looks amazing just that way. Like bald is no negative for him ever. He became a fav to me after that match. Bald improved his persona big time over night for me

[@Mysterybabylon696]

The Olympic bald hero.

[@travelingman5146]

Why does conrad have to ruin everything?

[@Mohamed_Yousif2298]

Edge: number 1 (pun intended)

[@Rottenkirsche13]

Why did he keep It off as a kid I thought it never grew back

[@JesusGarcia-kt2hj]

Thanks!

[@mahhaw3725]

Kurt should thank edge for the you suck chants

This was my first WWE the feud between Edge and Kurt Angle.

[@nameless5413]

Wolverene? nope that was Chris

[@MoneyBoss5921]

I really don’t like that some of the old wrestlers give up the insider of the matches

[@wwfchampion7222]

Regrow the hair kurt I am begging you look like old but you still great wrestler but with hair you look phenomenal

[@MessianicJewJitsu]

I didn't know anyone who thought Edge was going to lose this match though the match and feud was really deece

[@theconsigliere8463]

I never seen this match I had stopped watching wrestling before this. But from the time I did watch kurt did his job as a heel well from when I watched in the late 90s to early 2000s I did not like him 😅 I was an Austin fan boy. but when I go back and watch clips of the attitude Era and see Kurt's promos and such I appreciate him more I respect him, and love him kurt you were a genius, you were hilarious would start out like a compliment was coming to a savage insults to the crowd. Me being an Austin fan boy I rode with him to the end I also didn't like Rock. Jericho and HHH but also have that appreciation for them as well was a great time of my childhood and early teenage years wouldn't miss a Raw or smackdown never got to watch a ppv except for 1 is was a summer slam for my b day

[@wwfchampion7222]

I am bald because me and my friend had a bet the lose would shave the hair my long hair 7 years ago but I have short hair at the age of 44 years

Can you look at my phone and get me a new
