Dixie Carter Says She and Kurt Angle Took a Chance on Each Other, Talks WWE 24 Special

– Dixie Carter spoke with Sports Illustrated for a new interview. Some highlights are below:

On how she and Kurt Angle built their bond: “Kurt and I both took a chance on each other. The results were some of the best matches in the history of the business. From the beginning, I felt a big responsibility to help Kurt on a personal level and on a professional level. Professionally, there has never been a more complete wrestler, ever. Kurt is also a great talker and so charismatic, and maybe he’s the best in-ring talent, ever. He also made sure that everyone he wrestled had their best match. He can look back on his work with Sting, EC3, Jeff Hardy, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, and so many others, and the common denominator in those matches is Kurt. He only has one gear, and it’s all out, but that’s also been his biggest challenge.”

On appearing on Angle’s WWE 24 special: “I was just so focused on Kurt. That was my entire focus.”

On if she will be Kurt Angle’s mystery guest on WWE Raw next week: “I did hear Raw will be in Nashville, which is very interesting. But I wouldn’t tell you either way.”
