WWE legend Kurt Angle kept saying the same thing over and over after talking to Steve Austin.

Kurt Angle wasn't 100% sure whether or not he should approach Steve Austin behind the curtain at WrestleMania 38 when 'Stone Cold' was gearing up for his return match vs. Kevin Owens.

Angle's wife Giovanna revealed via her 'Wives Of Wrestling' podcast (which also involves Randy Orton's partner Kim) that Kurt did eventually stroll up his old pal and shake hands. Giovanna was even on hand to snap a quick picture of the moment, but she laughed on the pod as she recalled Angle's reaction afterwards.

Kurt wouldn't stop calling Austin "a wrestling God".

Somewhat hilariously, Angle camped out in a nearby golf cart and repeated that line over and over again to anyone who would listen. The Olympian was super-impressed by the physical shape Austin was in, and he couldn't stop saying, "He's a wrestling God" to his wife/literally everybody who spoke to him.

Sometimes, Kurt added in that Steve "always will be a wrestling God". His wife had a hard time getting him to speak about anything else the whole night, so it seems that Angle was rather taken aback by Austin's moment.
