"Better than all of us" - WWE legend believes Edge's former tag team partner is underrated in the business
WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle recently praised Edge's former tag team partner and AEW star Christian Cage, claiming that he is the "most underrated of all time."
Christian Cage started his journey in WWE as part of The Brood faction alongside The Rated R Superstar and Gangrel. He also shared the ring with Hall of Famer Kurt Angle on multiple occasions across their stints in WWE and TNA (now IMPACT Wrestling). Cage is a three-time world champion with WWE and IMPACT and is currently plying his trade with AEW.
On the latest episode of The Kurt Angle Show, the WWE Hall of Famer shared his honest thoughts on Christian Cage. Angle mentioned that Cage is highly underrated and is, in fact, better than The Rated R Superstar and himself at putting matches together.
“[Christian Cage] is the most underrated wrestler of all time. He never gets the credit that he deserves. He’s a superstar, don’t get me wrong. But he’s always been in the shadow of Edge and he’s actually just as good as Edge, and he’s actually better than all of us at putting matches together," Kurt Angle said. [H/T Wrestling Inc.]
Reportedly, Christian Cage will be out of action with torn triceps.
Sportskeeda wishes the veteran a safe & speedy recovery.
