WWE Hall Of Famer Kurt Angle was recently interviewed by the AtotheK podcast. Angle was asked what condition are his knees in now that he’s had double knee replacement surgery:
“I’m doing well. I will tell you this. It’s a long process. I was improving dramatically the first few months and I kind of hit a wall where my knees are sore all of the time. I’m not sure if this is going to last forever. I do rehab them every day. I don’t know if I’m overtraining them. I might be, might not be, but at this point in time, I’m doing really well. My legs are stronger now than they were before the surgery. So that’s a bonus.”
On if he will appear at Royal Rumble or WrestleMania:
“I don’t know right now. I know they’re having the RAW 30th anniversary at the end of January here. They are thinking about bringing some WWE legends back for that. I know I was in the conversation, not saying I’m gonna be there, but it’s possible. But nothing about WrestleMania. I did pitch an idea to them about it. I can’t really tell you right now, but most likely they’re not going to use it, but you know, there’s always a chance they could. So right now, no, nothing at WrestleMania. Hopefully, it’ll happen, but I’m gonna be there anyway, so you might as well use me (he laughs).”
On if there is any discussion about ever doing a Kurt Angle movie:
“Well, I did a documentary, WWE backed it up, and ended up airing on A&E. I’m not sure. It’s going to be on Peacock this year. So I’m hoping that we can parlay that into a movie. That would be awesome. That’s my goal and that’s the goal of my producer. My story’s pretty good. You know, it’s a lot of ups and downs, a lot of mistakes made, and a lot of success. You know, I had a lot of tragedies occur in my life that I had to overcome. So I do believe that it could be a great movie, but we will see.”
