Kurt Angle is a wrestling legend who has proven himself in the ring numerous times. He had two runs with the firm and was a part of significant stories in both. When WWE was organizing a huge match for him in the company against another wrestling legend, the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion remarked on the matter.
Bret Hart and Kurt Angle are two wrestlers who are infamous for forcing their opponents to submit during a match. They both employed two separate submission movements, but their moves were so well known that many people attempted to imitate them. Sharpshooter and Ankle Lock are two moves that wrestlers still utilize today.
They never appeared in a single feud with each other because they were both set to have a match, but the match was canceled owing to injury. Bret Hart was suffering from a terrible concussion at the time, and then in 2002, he suffered a stroke, which terminated his entire career, resulting in the match not taking place and becoming a fantasy for many fans.
Kurt revealed this in a Q&A session when he was signing a contract with K&S Wrestlefest. Kurt even revealed that this was going to be a WrestleMania match but he never confirmed which Mania was when the match was going to happen. Kurt Angle said, “I wanted to get him at Mania, but by then with his stroke and him getting a concussion and everything it just wasn’t going to work,”
Kurt Angle comments on the War Games Concept
Kurt reacted to the Survivor Series’ new feature this year, War Games. The gimmick has never been used on the main roster, and fans are eager to watch a new sort of match involving main roster wrestlers. Kurt stated that Survivor Series is the least interesting match in the company’s current big four PLE.
Kurt Angle believes that the tournament’s main event has always been a four-on-four elimination match, never for the world championship. This was the part he didn’t like, but now the entire cage and two rings will form one of the best gimmicky matchups, and because the match is from WCW, there have been many times since people saw it.

Kurt said, “I think that Survivor Series is probably the most unimportant top four pay-per-view of the year … it’s not that appealing. No World Championship is going on in that match”. Survivor Series is right around the corner now so Let’s wait and see what special WWE is going to do.
