The fact Kurt Angle was able to completely use his Olympic Gold medal career in amateur wrestling and then to proceed into Pro wrestling is incredible in itself.
When he arrived in the WWE in 1999, Kurt Angle came in the door ready to work his ass off, and he did. I don’t think I ever watched one of his matches where it seemed like he was sandbagging or not giving 110%, and he was damn solid. It definitely feels like he filled the void left when Bret Hart left, and then some. Wrestling ability, intensity, mic work and dedication- Kurt had it all.
He absolutely nuked the audience in L.A. during one his heel runs when the "What" stuff was in the early stages. He's doing his promo, and then goes: Angle: "And I know what you California airheads have to say about that." Audience: "What?" Angle: "It's true." Audience: "Boooooooooooo!" 😂
Everything undertaker said was absolutely true. Kurt was amazing. Insanely entertaining. And just know Kurt whenever you hear "you suck, you suck" it really means we love you forever and always bro lol
Kurt Angle...man understood the business of professional wrestling and understood that entertaining the fans was above all else. Guy deserves all the flowers
Kurt Angle has always been my favorite pure wrestler to watch, and Taker has always been my favorite character to watch. Legends through and through. 🙏
He was an absolute machine. I remember watching his matches with my dad, and every match there would be at least one point where my dad would go 'Hwah, did you see that?'
For my money, their match at No Way Out 2006 is still THE, if not definitely, then certainly one of the standard-bearers in sports entertainment competition. Always a stellar example of wrestling perfection.
Taker and Andre probably two of the most respected wrestlers. There are others who have earned respect too. But Taker and Andre definitely top 5 respected.
O he shouldn't until it's a short role. Even taker looks like he cab go one more bout. It shows how much rest these guys needed after years of putting their bodies on the line.
Kurt is probably the most well rounded pro wrestler ever. Legit bad ass, world class athlete, great talker, etc. I liked the attitude era but it was way too over the top & silly. Even though Kurt was a big part of the attitude era, I loved his work in the “ Ruthless Aggression era “ which I actually prefer over the Attitude era as I feel it was more wrestling centric.
I slightly disagree with Kurt. The Undertaker is one of the TWO most respected People in Wrestling. The other most respected one is Sting. I understand why Kurt didn't mention Sting due to this primarily being about The Undertaker though. That being said, I agree with Undertaker about Kurt. He gave us a lot of great memories and wrecked his body to do so.
Sting isn't always mentioned enough. I see him as a top guy in any company he steps his foot in, in ring sting was an amazing wrestler. Sting is a separate level on his own
Putting your ego aside, acting like a buffoon and selling other people is hard for so many. Angle > Hogan on every metric as a performer and person of character.
Taker was right about Angle and Angle was right about Taker!
Taker and Kurt Angle aren't wrong about each other.
My mouth says - You SUCK!! But my heart says - Thank you Kurt. You are one hell of an entertainer and a wrestling legend.
We all respect the hell outta this man. Good, bad, sideways. He makes every man proud and envious. Thats our Olympic hero.
The fact Kurt Angle was able to completely use his Olympic Gold medal career in amateur wrestling and then to proceed into Pro wrestling is incredible in itself.
Kurt Angle is the best actual in-ring wrestler of all time
Our childhood heroes are getting old. 😢😢
Looking good though.
Kurt made a huge impact on fans all over the world 💖

Kurt was comedy gold in his promos etc ..and obviously great in the ring

I still laugh now at Kurt's backside antics they were hilarious thank you Kurt you sir are a legend

Kurt Angle seems like one of the nicest people and that's one of the biggest reasons why he's one of my favourite entertainers
TWO GOATS RESPECT ❤
Kurt Angle...man understood the business of professional wrestling and understood that entertaining the fans was above all else.
Guy deserves all the flowers
Aww man my childhood wrestler 🥺🥺😭😭
Kurt Angle has always been my favorite pure wrestler to watch, and Taker has always been my favorite character to watch. Legends through and through. 🙏
Seeing Kurt with that beard makes me feel old…
Kurt looking lean and fit. Thank you Kurt for all the memories. You are amongst the ELITE ❤
Kurt Angle is MY OLYMPIC HERO! It’s true it’s true!
Just rewatched all the PPVs of 2000. Taker is right. Kurt was hilarious as a buffoon.
Kurt angle was a big part of what made wrestling soo entertaining its not until you grow up and you look back you realise the guys one of the 🐐s
Taker is right Kurt gets his flowers but he doesnt get the credit he truly deserves. He one of the five greatest ever
He was an absolute machine. I remember watching his matches with my dad, and every match there would be at least one point where my dad would go 'Hwah, did you see that?'
It's true. It's true. It's damn true.
There was nobody like Kurt before Kurt 🇺🇸🎖️
And still nobody like Kurt now. Chad Gable is very close to Kurt, but it ain't a hunnid percent.
We love you Kurt!! Always have
I got to meet this man at the CS Comic-Con a few days ago; totally humble and awesome.
Kurt has been a beast and even sicker in TNA
I love how he basically was an 80s good guy who was a heel for the attitude era
For my money, their match at No Way Out 2006 is still THE, if not definitely, then certainly one of the standard-bearers in sports entertainment competition. Always a stellar example of wrestling perfection.
Taker needs to get him on his podcast
Taker is damm right.
Kurt a Top 5 all time. If we had got TNA Kurt in WWE, he might have been the goat
Kurt is Top 5 greatest of all time man.
Legend to legend !!
You deserve it 👏
Taker and Andre probably two of the most respected wrestlers. There are others who have earned respect too. But Taker and Andre definitely top 5 respected.
I would have to say Harley Race is right there with Undertaker as far as being widely well-respected
Oh its true! Its damn true!
Mark Calaway is the most respected wrestler. "The Undertaker" is a cartoon character.
Kurt Angle is a goat
Kurt is one of the best wrestler 🤼 in WWE , no two thoughts about it
Soooo very very very true. 😀😃😄😁😊
Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels, Hogan vs. Rock & Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin are my three favourite matches.
Straight wrestling Kurt angle might be the greatest of all time
Dang! Kurt Angle has aged! It’s kinda crazy to see some of these celebrities drastically aged in recent years.
he's just a sexy kurt
Sexy Kuuuurt
Make your ankles hurt
@@wombfloodThat just doesn’t sound right. -Hank Hill
I tought the guy with the hat was batista lol
Kurt looks like he could still go!
O he shouldn't until it's a short role. Even taker looks like he cab go one more bout. It shows how much rest these guys needed after years of putting their bodies on the line.
Kurt Angle was a super athlete on the outside but acted like Boogie on the inside
😄😅😂🤣
Best ever heel that thinks he’s a face. No one did that better

Kurt Angle is the gold standard that every wannabe wrestler should aspire for before stepping into the ring.
Flowers?
Putting your ego aside, acting like a buffoon and selling other people is hard for so many. Angle > Hogan on every metric as a performer and person of character.
Why is he chewing gum?
Legend got old
