6-time WWE champion says he spent his "best years" in another promotion
Kurt Angle is one of the greatest to ever step inside the squared circle. The WWE Hall of Famer recently spoke to Mark Freund. At one point, Angle spoke about how he spent the best years of his career in Impact Wrestling.
Angle also wrestled for a handful of other promotions during his time away from WWE. However, Angle stressed how beneficial his run in Impact/TNA was on his health. Here's what Kurt Angle had to say:
“My body is pretty banged up and I had a great career. It’s unfortunate that my best years were with a smaller company and not WWE, but that’s a choice I made. I did it for my own benefit, for my own health, and that was the right decision to make.”
