Interesting Kurt Angle Interview, Piper On TMZ



Josh Stewart conducted a really interesting interview with TNA superstar Kurt Angle. Here are some excerpts:

On whether the MEM would serve the entire company of their own self interests:

âItâs our job to elevate the young guys in the company,❠Angle said, complimenting the writing of Vince Russo along the way. âWe want to be able to bring back the X Division the way it used to be. We want some of these young guys to become household names, kind of like most of the guys in the Main Event Mafia. So itâs kind of a team effort. Weâre setting ourselves up to go up against the young guys, and in the end, we want the young guys to come out winners.â

On Angle’s promo referencing Jeff Jarrett’s wife, Jill:

âI said that I lost my world championship, I lost my gold medal and I lost my wife. But Iâm not the only one to lose their wife,❠Angle remembered. âJeff didnât know I was going to say that. When I got backstage, I was ready to fight. I figured he was going to come up to me and he was going to be really pissed. But I didnât see Jeff. I didnât know how he responded that night. I didnât mean anything personally to Jill, God rest her soul. Itâs just that Jeff and I were going at it, and it seemed like the right thing to say at the right time to get some good heat. The fans, all of our wonderful, tremendous, great fans, sympathize with Jeff for everything heâs gone through. And to throw that in like that, it was like, â~What an a**hole to say something like that.â You know? So I actually thought Jeff would want to fight me. But he if wanted to fight me, heâs in for quite a hell of a fight. I was ready for him to jump me. So I was getting ready. Jeff and I donât see eye to eye. A lot of stuff you see on TV is very transparent on how we feel about each other.â
