WWE Signs Ex-TNA Talent?, Kurt Angle Injury Update, More

— As noted before, former TNA talent Chase Stevens got a WWE tryout at last week’s RAW and SmackDown events in Ohio. The rumor going around the independents is that WWE has offered Stevens a contract.

— Kurt Angle, who is suffering from a rib injury, told GoErie.com that his chances of making it to the Olympics are slim to none. Angle also talked about his health: “I’ve beaten myself up a lot. When I came back and started working out for the Olympics this time, I kept getting hurt. I popped a patellar tendon, then I popped an Achilles, then I blew out my hamstring. I went to my doctor and said, ‘What’s going on? I’m a machine, I don’t get hurt.’ He said you’re over 40, things are gonna happen to you unless you train. So I spent four months training just to get ready to get back on the mat.”

— Brooke Hogan was at ringside for Victory Road on Sunday night. She got involved in the Robbie E. vs. Devon TV Title match, taking a steel chair away from Robbie.

— TNA featured Twitter more than usual on Sunday night’s Victory Road pay-per-view. Some of the stars trending worldwide were Gail Kim and Devon.
