Kurt Angle may be the only man in history who can honestly say he was the greatest amateur wrestler and the greatest pro wrestler in the world during his lifetime. And he did it all within the span of about 10 years too.
I love Kurt Angle. That guy is freakin amazing. He has it all. He’s awesome in the ring, on the mic and in every other way. One of my all time favorites wrestlers, hands down. I think he’s one of the greatest heels of all time. He’s awesome no matter what, but I think he’s a much better heel than a face.
amateur wrestlers judging pro wrestling yet never walked a mile in their shoes nor watched it and angle just went along with them, his guilable and he has admit to this, wouldn't be a surprise once angle made the jump to pro wrestling and pro wrestlers looking down on him
Its completely understandable for amateur wrestlers to look down on pro wrestlers given the near constant confusion between the two when people like Kurt told people they’re a wrestler. Making weight every single week and competing in the purest sport on earth and people going “oh you take chair shots?” would get annoying and irritating fast. Its like if MMA fighters were told the same thing when they’re doing genuine competition with real risks, not that pro wrestling doesnt have risks, but its just not the same.
Try telling you buddy bret that losing isn’t important mr Lambsturd!!….. Bret sucked, he was great as a tag team, even great as intercontinental champ, but to put him as the biggest and best in the world as the champion was far to much for even the most creative of child’s imaginations…..

The only thing I disagree with in you statement is the "may be" part.
Kurt angle doesn’t get brought up as the goat and i find that weird
Jack brisco is up there too
And he did it all with a BROKEN FREAKIN' NECK.
Phenomenal Wrestler, he had everything.
Landsberg does great interview, great questions and to the point

Exactly. Super underrated. Easily up there as one of the best of all time
It’s true. It’s true
given the money offered angle in 1996 he could afforded bret. imagine bret vs angle in 1996
this is a gem
17:22 So sad to hear, when you know he's gonna struggle with pain killer addiction later in life.
Kurt's friggin neck is huge!
WWE offered him a million dollars guaranteed, and his agent ripped up the contract. He should’ve fired that dude on the spot.
Didn’t take the painkiller route lol
Not laughing at my man Kurt, just laughing at how things change
yea its sad actually. thank lord he’s healthy now.
Also when he said he "stays away from racial issues" lol that he did that promo.
3:28 poor Kurt if he only knew.
Before the legend that was Perc Angle, there was Kurt Angle.....
I don't think this guy realized how bad ass kurt angle is/was.
14:17 a few years later he's saying the line "Not a fan of the Black people" lol
Bret vs Angle would’ve been the best wrestling match ever
It would be the match of the year every single time if they wrestled.
❤️🤍💙 VS. 🩷💀🖤
calling kurt clean in hindsight meantal, he took so many pain killers in a few years
If you are wondering if the fly ever stops buzzing; it doesn't.
Right on
Always felt Angle wasted all those TNA years. He should have taken a year of in WWE and returned
Amazing video!
Kurt is the man with a broken neck
becoming a champion wow!
awesome questions! he should return in ring xD
I want to know how a man with such a brutal neck fracture can develop a neck that muscular and massive.

He is supposed a legend!
Anyone else got a nasty buzzing sound
Ends in 3:04
I bet Kurt is so thankful he had such a firm stance on the racial shit. It didn’t age well

14:18 but then a few years later he says in a wwe interview Im not a huge fan of the black people
He called them the N word during 1997 on ABC during the olympics. Kurt is a bigot period
@@caroldunes8693 nice try making up a bunch of crap that never happened
He never said that
@@Weaponize it was a funny segment on raw though
ikr i thought about that segment the moment i heard he said that lmao
He looks so much younger with hair. Looks old and ugly bald now. Correct
Cant wait to see your reflection in the mirror in 20 years I bet huh Carol?
@@365daysgone She probably looks 20 years older right now.
@@RaM-mn5js most wrestler do not age well . they work 6 days a week, no off season , a lot of getting into a lot injuries and some get into drugs
because the pain pills aged kurt's face big time same thing with a bunch of other wrestlers
Brock would beat him
Kurt Angle is right up there with Shawn Michaels. I honestly don’t know who is better.
