Former TNA World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle will be undergoing surgery to remove a benign tumor in his neck soon. Back in 2012 was the first time that he found out that he had a tumor, but at the time it was not a big problem. Now it is and he will have to take care of it.
It was starting to block a nerve in his arm and he was beginning to get some atrophy in the arm so he’s having surgery to get it removed.
He’s expected to get the surgery done this week and expected to be back within three weeks. But if he doesn’t then he’ll miss the next set of tapings, and that would put him off TV until probably November.
