10 Wrestling Facts We Didn't Know Last Week (25 Oct)

8. Kurt Angle Finds WWE "Hard To Watch"

Admit it, you read that headline and thought this was Kurt Angle's turn to take potshots at his employer. Not quite. Kurt told The Pop Break that he doesn't find WWE's product hard to watch because it's bad. No, no, no. He finds it difficult to produce because he's rather be in the ring wrestling than backstage watching.

The inner worker never dies.

In fairness to Kurt, he should want to better his WrestleMania 35 send off against Baron Corbin. That was the sh*ts, and its failure had next-to-nothing to do with Angle. He was put in a rough spot, the same could be said for Corbin, and the pair collectively failed to produce a fitting final hurrah for one of wrestling's greatest ever entertainment machines.

Today, Kurt cuts a fairly reflective figure behind the curtain. There's probably no doubts about his commitment to the producer role, and yet he'd much rather be pulling on the star-spangled tights for another roll around in front of the fans.
