• “Triple H never contacted him again” – Kurt Angle Says TNA Veteran Should Be In WWE
On a recent episode of his weekly ‘The Kurt Angle Show’ podcast, the 1996 Olympic Gold Medalist talked about his personal friend, TNA Veteran ‘Cowboy’ James Storm, who only had a brief WWE run in NXT.
Here’s what Kurt Angle said about Storm’s NXT run:
“A few years ago, Triple H offered him a deal, starting out in NXT and James didn’t like the money figure so he refused it and Triple H never contacted him again.
I know that James tried to reach back and see if they were still interested but for some reason, the company wasn’t interested.
I don’t know if they were turned off because James turned down the deal, I don’t know what the situation was but they should’ve contacted James again. James should be in WWE but I’m not sure why he isn’t.”
After wrestling for Total Nonstop Action! (TNA, now iMPACT Wrestling) since 2002, James Storm joined WWE’s developmental brand NXT in October 2015, but left in December 2015.
