Re: Kurt Angle on why he left WWE

Quote:
Are you actually comparing Kurt Angle and his 5 years with the WWE, to the over 20 logged by Taker? There is nobody in the WWE more revered and respected than Undertaker. And that's coming from the mouths of current and ex-WWE wrestlers in shoot interviews. Taker works part-time, NOW, at the age of 44 or whatever he is. Angle wanted that schedule when his nuts were barely wet in the wrestling business.
I was in no way comparing them. I was using 'taker as an example after you said:

wanted to be a main event player, but work part-time
'taker is one of several guys who main event but work part time, he was just the first i thought of.

As far as i know, he has had six in his life. One during the Olympics & five during his WWE stay.

Vince considered Angle as a top guy. Surely he should protect his top guys to prevent injury from fatigue. With the exception of Cena, until recently nearly every wwe main eventer has picked up a long term injury while in a big(ish) program. Angle was already injured but Vince still refused to cut down his house shows etc.
