@@InsideTheRopes overall yes he's the greatest wrestler of his and probably most generations. He's a natural for professional wrestling and of course a pinnacle level Olympic wrestler. He made me a fan because he earned it not because I was marketed to
This man is and was tough as nails. Won the Gold medal with a broken neck and wrestled Lesnar at WM 19 with one too. For him to still be level headed after all the good and bad times in his career is amazing. Loads of 5 star matches. He could be funny too.
Nobody talks about Kane when it comes to safe workers. I don't ever recall him missing time for injury or hurting anyone, ever. And big guys like that, they get hurt a lot. Bad back, bad legs. But Kane, never.
Kane did have a few injuries that put him on the shelf. He had a hand injury just after Wrestlemania 2000 that caused him to miss a month or two, plus a torn tricep(?) that he worked with for much of early 2002 that put him out for around 6 months. Plus a smattering of months off here and there to heal up. But yeah, I don’t think he’s ever directly injured anyone himself. Any injuries to opponents in matches with him have generally been bad luck or self inflicted.
@bestintheworld568 Only eight months of injury time in a 25 year career is astonishingly low. Especially for a big man like him. Dude was a consummate professional.
WWE Hall of fame is such a joke They put to many random people in it instead of deserving wrestlers/Managers etc. they put Bad Bunny in…. For what? Makes you feel for the deserving people
@ wrestling isn’t fake. It’s predetermined. Every move they are inches away from MAJOR injuries. They have a shitty HOF due to them putting anyone and everyone in it.
@@JE2-5-3-1 It's fake. And where is this Hall of Fame? I know which cities the Baseball, Football, and basketball hall of fame are in, where is the WWE Hall?
Shame Kurt didn’t get a proper sendoff. Can’t help but think HHH had something to do with Kurt being written off the way he was. Hunter was always insecure and threatened by Angle. Kurt deserved a better retirement match.
Hall of Fame should be meant for legends or managers people who paved the way for others etc over the years it's become ridiculous although of course I was thrilled Angle got in the Hall incredible interview that shooting star press Brock did was insane how he was able to finish the match was a miracle
Is Kurt Angle the greatest of all time? Let us know in the comments below!
Definitely top 5 when you put skill, with wrestling ability and mic/crowd work.
Better than Hbk, but not top 5 all time imho
@@CannedHam2479 not better than hbk bro

Top 5 from his era.
Super hard to debate.
@@ObiJuanKenobit is but he’s in the convo for sure
Top 5 all time
Top 5 any era
@@Rschr101 for me it's like the Jordan LeBron debate its just to hard to compare different eras.
Kurt Angle is not one of my favorites but he definitely got "it" faster than most other people. Went from Olympian to Top Guy real fast. A true talent

I thought Hogan tapped out to the torture rack in WCW
Very strong contender for GOAT.
He's one of the goats . No doubt
Easily
Easily the GOAT technical mat wrestler in all of wrestling history among ANY promotion.
It's a cryin shame that we don't have any footage of wrestler's court.
Call the producers of judge judy

Tony was supposedly a huge fan of kurt but still wanted to sign him on as a wrestler? Hes a strange, strange little man.

Kurt was so close to taking the Marks money for AEW 😂 thankfully he didn’t get involved in that mess
Lex Luger made Hogan give up on an episode of Nitro in 96 or 97 to win the world title. Doesn’t it count as « tapping out »?
