"The WWE bought the show from us, the documentary. They changed it up a little bit and made it a little more pro-wrestling oriented but we made a deal with them that this will air on Peacock next year, my previous documentary before they actually added more WWE stuff to it."

Continuing, Angle stated that the upcoming A&E Biography on him scheduled to air on 31 July will be even more pro-WWE:-

"The one next year on Peacock will be more about my personal life growing up and before the WWE. It's a really well-rounded documentary but the one that WWE is showing will be pro-WWE stuff."

Angle is currently in the midst of what sounds like a gruelling recovery from double knee replacement surgery, having gone under the knife in May.
