"Don't get that hornet's nest all stirred up" - Dutch Mantell advises WWE Hall of Famer against acting on resurfaced controversy (Exclusive)
WWE legend Kurt Angle's recent drama with Karen Jarrett is already one of the most talked-about stories of 2023, and we're only two weeks into the new year.
Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's Smack Talk, Dutch Mantell provided his take on the situation. While he didn't pick any sides in the controversy, he advised Angle not to 'stir up the hornet's nest.'
Mantell, who is quite familiar with The Jarretts, mentioned the consequences of possibly beefing with Karen.
"I don't wanna get involved in it, I don't wanna take a side. But I will give some, little bit of advice to Kurt [Angle]. I would say since you're working back with WWE now is, don't get that hornet's nest all stirred up. Because I know Karen, I know how she fights. I mean, she fights to win and the daggers come out. So Kurt, the best thing you can do and you know, wrestlers are no different than regular people."
The WWE veteran further mentioned that the situation between the two parties needs to end quickly and die down.
"That's just what I heard, I don't know who did what. But I think this situation needs to die down, die down quick. I don't know what set Karen off about Kurt," added Dutch Mantell. [4:04 - 5:47]
