Chris Jericho on when he first met Kurt Angle

On this special episode of The Kurt Angle Show, the guys are joined by the "Demo God" himself, Chris Jericho! Topics include Chris "stealing" the Undisputed Championship, WrestleMania 2000, working with Shawn Michaels, Chris' latest WWE run, and much more! 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

Yeah greenberg is dumb

[@kermitthefrog8001]

The classic mispronunciation of the name haha

[@NikolaJokerMVP15]

Benoyt was my favorite because that is how one would pronounce it in English if they didn't understand the French origins of the name. 😂

[@DRob0128]

Jericho was so bonafide entertaining back in the 90's and early 00's and up great charisma by making fans laugh

[@madcona]

Paul always looks so fuckin stoked to be there

[@erikaw7767]

i still walk around my house saying Kirk Angle.. and also when he called Hogan Grandpa.. lol

[@joemckim1183]

It was probably more like 3-4 months that Jericho was in WWF when Kurt got called up.

[@robertjoseph5206]

Don't understand how Kurt don't got more subscribers

[@grizzy77]

People aren’t a fan of professional wrestling, people aren’t nerdy enough. Most people don’t care. I don’t understand how you can’t comprehend these Tball answers a lame question for attention. It’s like asking why stop signs and red lights are both red.

Like how Jericho mentioned Benoit. On pure wrestling alone Benoit is one of the best if not the best technical wrestler. Ppl don’t wanna talk about it cause hes a murderer and don’t wanna mention his name but now Kurt and Chris are talking about Benoit.

[@lostlavender1458]

Those 3 carried wrestling from a technical standpoint, were a lot of people's favorited growing up including mine. They were always fun to use in the wrestling games too.

[@redrick8900]

He's a great technical wrestler like the Undertaker is dead and Bob Holly was a race car driver. It was just a gimmick. He was a lame midcarder that got over by doing a bunch of stupid spots that turned his brain into much before he murdered his family.

[@ckidd8681]

Kurt is the best. Hes coming to NJ june 4th

[@therehegoeslittlehammer]

You should show Kurt angle on screen when Jericho was talking so you could see his reactions to what Jericho says.

[@front331]

I want to see the match Chris Jericho vs Juventud Guerrero.

[@joshuaburris9075]

I always thought that Chris and Kurt were lot alike

[@jameswhitehorn6432]

Comparing the current AEW roster to the 99-05 WWF/E roster…Jericho’s been dropped on his head one too many times

[@RVFCalvo]

😭🤣😂

[@censedfear]

Yeah mate you know more than Jericho

[@corey2232]

He's talking about talent, not how over they are or how big a draw they might be.

[@cappy2282]

WCW was so stacked with talent back in the day but Jericho was the coolest (imo) they just didn't use him properly

[@standardFifa]

Sup kurt

[@mkay6093]

I stopped listening once Conrad handed the mic to Paul. I stopped listening to everything it’s just not the same

[@jaycuthbert245]

Paul is so boring and bland and just sounds irritating to listen to. He comes across so fake and insensere

[@CSC52698]

Kirk Angel.

[@RVFCalvo]

No mention of The Rock & Mick Foley? Ok

[@tired5]

You didn't mention Ric Flair? Ok

[@Rroy20]

Jericho seems like he has a high ego

[@WillJM81280]

They all do. Performing in front of thousands of people cheering for you and chanting your name for years and years tends to give one a wee bit of an ego.

[@lukasskywalker6514]

He’s also a musician^

[@TheRustedShackleford]

Lol Chris trying his hardest to convince people AEW doesn't suck. Good luck, bud.

[@tmd9569]

Hey Jericho is still talented and all but don't be like Hogan and flair just retire
