The latest episode of The Kurt Angle Show saw the WWE Hall of Famer reveal that current Raw star Cedric Alexander found himself in the dog house for around six months after getting in trouble for not listening to Vince McMahon last year.

At one point, it got so bad that Angle thought Alexander's run with WWE might be over, though he has since turned it around with The Hurt Business. Cedric currently reigns as one half of the Raw Tag Team Champions with stablemate Shelton Benjamin.

On the alleged "trouble," Kurt said that Alexander fell afoul of Vince for not doing something that the WWE Chairman asked of him. "If you don't listen to your boss, things could get a little bit depressing for you," said Angle. "He didn't listen the one night and they scolded him for a good half-year before the started using him again. Rightly so, he should have listened."

Angle added that it's Cedric's job to listen to Vince, though the boss eventually gave him another chance.

Alexander is currently enjoying his most prosperous run in WWE, having soared since joining The Hurt Business in September 2020.
