TNA World Champion Kurt Angle has given what appears to be a new
and improved version of his departure from World Wrestling Entertainment. The
Olympic Gold Medalist was promoting tonight's TNA Lockdown pay per view event
from Boston, Massachusetts, and was interviewed by the North Andover Eagle
Tribune.
The article surprisingly says the following:
"I wanted time to really heal my neck," said Angle.
"I went to Vince McMahon, the head of WWE, and asked for the time off and he
basically said, 'No.' That incident really made me look at my life. That year, I
was on the road for 304 days, and my marriage was just falling apart, my wife
had filed for divorce.
"I went back to Vince and asked to go part-time, like
some of the older veterans had done. He said no to part-time, so I was fed up
and told him I wanted to quit, and he got really mad, and I mean really mad,
almost like he wanted to fight me. I took real offense to that. My life was
falling apart, and I felt like they didn't care. My neck was in tough shape, and
they wanted me to keep performing every night. I felt I deserved to at least go
part-time, even though I really needed the time off."
While healing at home, Total Nonstop Action
Wrestling, an upstart organization which hopes to compete with WWE, caught his
attention and he signed with TNA.
Angle joined the company late in 2006, and is
currently the TNA world heavyweight champion. He'll battle Samoa Joe in the main
event of this Sunday's Lockdown pay-per-view at Lowell's Tsongas Arena.
