Kurt Angle: ‘I Learned A Lot From Sting!’, Talks Politics In Wrestling & More

Kurt Angle recently appeared on Vince Russo’s podcast, here are the highlights…

On His Prime as an Athlete: “I felt really good at 38, 39, when I felt I was at my peak,” Angle said. “I wrestled the Olympics at 27, and actually, I thought I was horrible! I didn’t know anything then! I wish I would have wrestled at the Olympics at 39.”

On Sting Not Getting Into The Politics of Wrestling: “Sting never had to get into it politically and he was always protected. I really think the good Lord did the work for Sting. If anything he would always try to help others–it was never about him. I learned a lot from Sting. He’s the guy I wanted to be like.”

On Why People Did Not Mess With Him: “I was a bad ass. I think everybody knew that and I didn’t think anybody wanted to test that. It does suck that you have to be a bad ass not to get screwed with–but, that’s the way the business is sometimes.”
