Fan Photo of Kurt Angle in a Wheelchair

The following photo has been posted by a fan who met Kurt Angle during TNA's UK tour. It's unclear as to why Angle is in a wheelchair, as it could be that he was selling an angle shot for an upcoming Impact Wrestling episode (we won't spoil what the angle is), or because he is indeed in bad shape.

There have been numerous reports coming from fans in attendance at recent TNA live events claiming Angle has looked in pretty rough shape lately, and it's likely due to the knee injury he is currently working through.

1/31 WWE Smackdown Rating Sees Increase

This past Friday night's edition of WWE Smackdown finished with a 2.18 cable rating, which is up slightly from the previous week's 2.15 rating. As we noted before, the show averaged 3.027 million viewers, which is about the same as the previous week's 3.03 million viewership average.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
