12 WWE Stars You Didn't Know Were Super Intelligent

12. Kurt Angle

The only Olympic gold medalist in professional wrestling has used more than just his physical gifts to achieve his many successes over the years; intelligence was one of the three Is after all. In fact, before Angle was tying it up in the finals of the 1996 freestyle wrestling Olympic Games with a broken freakin€™ neck, he was training his mind with a degree from Clarion University of Pennsylvania. It was there that Angle studied his butt off to earn a degree in Education. For most folks, going through the stresses of college while also keeping physically fit and training to be the best in amateur wrestling is would be more than enough. But for Kurt Angle, there was much more he wanted to do. With his educated mind he went on to become not just a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, but also serve as their President. He also took the time to serve as a member of the Student Senate for two years. While Angle has certainly been through his fair share of controversial issues, both in professional wrestling and in the real world, when he puts his mind to it, Kurt Angle certainly know how to use his brain. Let€™s just hope he doesn€™t continue to pollute it with more foreign substances.
