– Kurt Angle discussed his storyline with Jason Jordan, his reaction to Jordan being replaced at Survivor Series and more at a fan Q&A session in Freehold, America. Some excerpts are below, per Wrestlezone:

On Jason Jordan being replaced by Triple H on Team Raw for Survivor Series: “I wasn’t happy about [Jordan being replaced]. When you have HHH on your team, though he is really hard to deal with, he’s one of the best ever. Jason got hurt and HHH replaced him… honestly I don’t know if we would have won if we didn’t have HHH. Obviously, HHH wanted to win himself, but it was tough. Jason is my son and I want to help him the most that I can… I can’t believe that I’m saying this.” [Laughs]

On finding out about the storyline of Jordan being his son: “You know this is a big prank that Vince [McMahon] had when he made this happen. I looked at him and I said ‘Are you serious?’ and said ‘When did I get [Jordan’s storyline mother] pregnant in college?’ The joke was on me, but honestly I’m not going to lie to you, I really hope that this storyline turns into a match with Jason. Whether you like him or not, or his character, you can’t deny that right now he’s one of the top three wrestlers in the company.”

On Jordan: “Watch him perform; he’s up there with AJ Styles. He’s got a different style, but you will see that Jason Jordan will be a world champion eventually. I know that people can’t stand him right now, but his performance in the ring, it doesn’t get much better than that.”
