Kurt Angle Says He’ll Be Back By September

July 30, 2015 | Posted by Joseph Lee

In a Q&A on his official website, Kurt Angle gave an update on his health and when he thinks he’ll be back. Here are highlights:

On the wrestler that reminds him of himself: “I have yet to see a wrestler that has reminded me of myself. There is a lot of great talent out there. Is there another Kurt Angle?? Not yet. But there are tremendous talents in the business.”

On who was a tougher opponent: Brock Lesnar or Steve Austin: “Lesnar and Austin. Who was tougher? That’s a difficult question. Austin was aggressive and physical. He was always pressing me. Lesnar is a beast, an animal, a rare breed. They dominated in different ways. Both are rugged. But who frightens me more? Lesnar.”

On his weekly workout routine: “It’s simple: 4 days of weight training and 3 days of hard cardio. I train every day, but no longer than an hour. This is nothing compared to my 10 hour days of training for the Olympics, but it works for me.”

On how he’s feeling after his neck surgery: “I’m doing ok from my neck surgery. I had complications but I should be ready to go by early September.”

On his favorite Mexican food: “Really?? Burritos. With lots of beef!”
