Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Old Guy trying to get attention


I bet you thought I was talking about John McCain. Nope, I am in fact talking about Kurt Angle. The Olympian wrestler has been making some noise that he wants to get into the cage, not with the Undertaker though.

Angle said this,


"I’m talking to several fight companies about doing MMA by the end of next year - 2009.

"I’m going to cross over to the MMA world for a while but I want to end up back in TNA and back in wrestling.

"I’ve always wanted to do it. I’m the only Olympic gold medallist that will enter the Octagon and it feels right for me.

"I can almost guarantee you’re going to see me in the Octagon.

"Obviously I’m going to have to take a few months away from pro wrestling to get ready for that.

"But I welcome that, it’s something I’ve always wanted to do and TNA have given me their best wishes.

"I’m 100%. A lot of people on the internet are bashing me but I’ve never felt better."


I really hope he doesn't come into MMA. I understand that ending up on TNA for a wrestler is the equivalent of being Clay Bucholz from the Red Sox and who wants their career to go down like that. But I don't want to see an old, unhealthy wrestler get beat up and possibly hurt.
