Below are some top WWE news stories of the day, involving Kurt Angle and RAW’s Netflix Debut.
• In an interview with Inside The Ropes, former WWE Champion Kurt Angle gave a blunt assessment of his former WWE boss Vince McMahon, describing him as “f**king crazy” and reflecting on their unusual interactions.
Angle recounted McMahon’s unpredictable behavior, noting his “complicated” demeanor and antics that sometimes seemed unfitting for a CEO.
While Angle avoided revealing too much, he hinted at McMahon’s eccentric and private nature. He concluded with a bold remark in the end.
Here’s what the Olympic Gold Medalist said:
“Vince is f**king crazy. Sometimes he gives me this look like he wants to kick my a$$. Vince has this way about him that’s just… complicated. He does some crazy sh*t, and for a guy who’s the owner and CEO of a company, it’s like, ‘What the f**k, man? You’re the boss. You can’t be doing this stuff!’
I don’t want to say all the crazy stuff he does because, you know, some of it is more private. But Vince… Vince is a very special individual.
He’s going to hell when he dies.”
After his comments went viral on social media, Angle tweeted the following:
“To everyone seeing this, I meant for it to be a joke. I don’t know why whoever came up with this quote made it look serious. It was a JOKE. I actually complimented Vince on his business mind and incredible work ethic but I guess they decided to leave that out. Of course they did.”
