Kurt Angle Gets Emotional About High Praise From The Rock

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 Paul Bromwell 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

Everytime Kurt Angle and The Rock locked up in the ring, it was always epic, their chemistry was smooth and exciting to watch. They never had a bad match, I could watch those two go at it everyday and I really wished they had an extended program together. True legends

[@ihatecasuals5065]

One of my favorite wrestlers of all time Kurt

[@Primitive_Code]

They had such great chemistry together. I'll never forget No Way Out 2001 when Rock beat Angle but Angle kicked out of 2 rock bottoms. Angle was a machine back then.

[@michaelvin8632]

Apparently, the last kick out was a mistake by Earl Hebner. He was supposed to count the finish, but thought that the finish was different. He ended up in advertently, making the match that much better.

[@anthonyscrima8900]

​@michaelvin8632 rock was pissed from that too lol apparently he yelled at earl "COUNT THE FUCKING 3" after 😂

[@ZFMusicTheEmperor]

Kurt Angle was as dedicated and tough as it gets. He was DAMN Real. Incredible speed, terrifying explosiveness, a true fighter's instincts and mindset - he threw feints and countered, beat bigger stronger opponents with his mind and heart. Wore them out and turned them into a pretzel. He had what the guys with size didn't - and he beat them. His quads and neck were enormous - when he squatted down into the ready stance - forget it, just give up, theres nothing you can do lol. He inspired me with his exhaust training - the workout begins once you reach failure.

[@thenononsensegang]

I was at Survivor Series 99 ( Kurt's WWE in ring debut & Vengeance where there was the Triple Threat match between Kurt Angle Undertaker and the Rock. I must say Kurt Angle is another level performer. I'm glad I witnessed greatness when I was heavy into wrestling at the time.

[@countof3everybodyOD]

Angle = GOAT Absolutely second to none!

[@MisterSands]

It's true, it's damn true.

[@C280S]

Kurt literally had everything and could believably go toe to toe with anyone. He is my GOAT

[@brian130]

The Rock. Stone Cold. Undertaker. Chis Jericho. Kurt Angle all respected each. With little to no drama. That's why WWE beat WCW. They had hard workers who put their craft before their egos

[@mrdee2454]

His a legend. With or without WWF his CV is legendary

[@TheGoonsies]

Egoless approach to the performance. Def need this in today's "product"

[@caramel7149]

Kurt Angle's work and charisma is heroic.

[@WrestlingIsReal649]

Kurt was of the greatest of all time 🔥🔥🔥

[@bryanmack4054]

Wonder if Kurt was ever asked about the time In 2000 where HHH thought he was too small to be champion, and Gerald Brisco said “ok how about you two get into shoot fight and see if his size matters” or something to that effect….that shut HHH up real quick

[@LanceJ.]

I’m not doubting you, but what’s the source on this?

[@megavolt67]

Kurt was too small but HHH's fellow Kliq member and multiple time champ Shawn Michaels wasn't? It's a good thing HHH's backstage influence wasn't so outsized yet at that point.

[@theworldisimmense]

@@megavolt67 facts dude , and not only that but HHH said it to cm punk as well that he was too small to make it big in the wwe

[@inuenndo_]

The only person i could stomach beating the Rock was Kurt when i was a kid. He was so damn good. It’s True

[@blaktrumpet]

It's DAMN true

[@jamesjackson2434]

Haha as a kid I absolutely HATED Kurt as a huge Rock fan. Those days were so much fun.

[@jamaali2358]

same here but I was spitting fire when stone cold beat him at WM17

[@YusukeKnight]

Salute to you Kurt

[@PrabhsimranSingh15]

If it comes to the level of coming from a true amateur wrestling background and making himself established as an entertainer for almost 2 decades, Kurt Angle has done it so very well. I could very well rank him the second best, after Bret Hart, based on his intensity in the matches. Plus he had fought nearly all his peers. I really feel that nobody rooted for Kurt since he played the role of a heel so well. The same goes for Booker-T who was an exceptionally tremendous athlete but was underused given his ability. I used to root for HBK earlier and used to think of Kurt Angle as true villain of WWE but turns out that guys like Bret, Angle, Guerrero, Benoit and Jericho were the hardest workers in the industry. Kurt was there all the time during the entire attitude era and the ruthless aggression era.

[@TheProphegy]

Paul talks to Kurt like Kurt was a mid tier guy. Kurt is one of the greats of the last two decades. lol.

[@ponokanaka]

I loved when you teamed up with Edge and Christian. Pure gold

[@Aaron17988]

Happy Early birthday Kurt Angle

[@swishbenoit4489]

Kurt is top 5 all time it’s true it’s damn true

[@larrystilltheeman39]

Kurt deserves it because he is that. I am a big Kurt Angle fan.

[@herohunted85]

Kurt Angle! American Hero!

[@LilHondaCivic808]

💯 Kurt Angle did an amazing job 🔥🔥

[@KingKidGoku32794]

"When I'm in this ring everybody knows that I'm the real thing"

[@gojirajenkins8528]

Kurt Angle is not just one of the Greatest Americans in history He is one of the Greatest Human Beings in all of history

[@jaerockchalk3216]

The Rock may have sold out and gone woke but hes right on this one. I HATED YOU when i was in my teens Kurt now you're on of my favorites and its not even close . What a Character!

[@derek2802]

Please invite Dave Bautista to your show

[@Leogarcia623]

WE ALL LOVE KURT! If you don’t you’re just a straight hater 😅

[@sleepisbutadream]

Punk is my favourite wrestler but I gotta say, overall,to me Kurt is the GOAT, did it all to the highest standard

[@Am0ment0fB]

It's True! It's Damn True! Ha.

[@peldoria]

Paul Bromwell is the worst

[@paladinPraveen]

Any particular reason? I really like the way he hosts it.

[@peldoria]

@@paladinPraveen there's just nothing entertaining about him and he's doing a show with Kurt, who has obviously taken a beating on his head because he can't articulate anything

[@fmthebaron]

He's better than Brian Last.

[@jon_3013]

@@fmthebaron anything is better than someone who will host a show with a racist & sexist cuck.. but yeah you’re right

[@skippythealien9627]

@@paladinPraveen yeah he has grown on me. also, it's nice to have someone else besides Conrad doing these podcasts. Nothing against Conrad but cmon it's nice to have a change every once in a while
