WWE Superstar Kurt Angle Talks Royal Rumble Rumors, Drug Addiction, Hall of Fame
There are few men on this planet as inspirational as Kurt Angle. He dedicated himself to winning gold in the 1996 Olympics and somehow managed to pull it off with a broken neck. Now, he's dedicated to winning a fight...a fight with drug addiction. After breaking his neck and transitioning to Professional wrestling, Angle became dependent on painkillers.
Now that he's sober, the former Olympian and WWE Superstar has rededicated his life to helping those fighting the same issues. Angle just launched the new AngleStrong mobile app to help those in recovery.
In other Angle news, it was just announced that he was headed to the WWE Hall of Fame and rumors are swirling about him appearing in the Royal Rumble this weekend. When Puff talked to Kurt earlier he addressed the rumors, opened up about his drug addiction and reflected upon his WWE career and going into the WWE Hall of Fame.
