Kurt Angle on Gable Steveson: ‘I Think They’re Gonna Have Him Copy and Mimic Me So He Can Piss the Fans Off’

The latest “Kurt Angle Show” is up now on AdFreeShows.com and all podcast platforms. 

Gable Steveson recently made his WWE debut in a match against Baron Corbin. Kurt Angle talked about Steveson being compared to him:

“Well, I feel badly for him because he’s been compared to me at this point in time and he hasn’t even barely started. He just started out right now. So I don’t know how his future is going to be. I know he’s really talented, really athletic. I’m not sure how he is as far as entertainment-wise, but as far as in the ring, I heard he’s really good. But no, I don’t think it’s a fair assessment to compare him to me right now. I think down the line, you can do that.”

“I heard, this is crazy but people have been coming to me and telling me, ‘Hey, he wrestled Baron Corbin in NXT and the fans were booing the heck out of him, and then he pulled his straps down and the fans were even more pissed.’ You know what? I think that is something that the WWE is actually doing. They want to make him a heel so they’re gonna have him copy and mimic me. This is what I believe. I think they’re gonna have him copy and mimic me so he can piss the fans off so that he starts out as a heel because it’s easier to be a heel starting out than it is to be a babyface. I think they’re the ones that actually told him to do this stuff. I really believe that and I think the WWE is brilliant for doing it.”
