Kurt Angle and Triple H have been friends long enough to know a lot about each other, and if the former’s recent comments about The Game are to go by, it is no wonder the WWE creative head got into this position as soon as his in-ring career was over.
On a recent episode of The Kurt Angle Show, Angle highly praised Triple H mind for the pro wrestling business. When asked who has the highest wrestling IQ, the Wrestling Machine answered:
“For me, personally, Triple H. He’s always had it. He’s not just from a wrestling standpoint, but from a creative standpoint, from a psychology standpoint, from a promo standpoint.” Angle continued, quipping that “Triple H is one guy that is so well-educated. He loves pro wrestling like it’s his wife, okay? He cherishes it. He’s really good at it. He has a great mind for it (h/t and thanks to sescoops.com for the transcription).”
Triple H has led a kind of revolution in WWE since taking over from Vince McMahon, and there is a marked improvement in almost all aspects of the company, so we can only hope he takes the promotion to new heights.
Kurt Angle in AEW?
Kurt Angle retired from in-ring action in 2019 at WrestleMania 35 in a loss to Baron Corbin. During the latest episode of his Kurt Angle Show he revealed the huge price he wanted to return to the ring when Tony Khan reached out to him to join All Elite Wrestling.
For 10 matches Angle wanted $3 million!
It’s gonna have to be a substantial amount of money too. I do remember Tony Khan, you know, wanted me to come in and wrestle for him. This was like when they first started. And I said for 10 matches I want 3 million, that’s 300 grand a match.”
