Kurt Angle Believes Don West and Mike Tenay Equaled Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler's Performance at a Certain Time

Posted By: Ben Jordan Kerin on Sep 24, 2023

During the most recent episode of "The Kurt Angle Show," WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle delved into a variety of topics, including his 2008 tenure with TNA and more. Below are the key takeaways:

On his frequent appearances in TNA during 2008:

“Okay. You know what? When I signed a deal, I signed a big ass deal. A lot of money. Okay, so there was no way that I wasn’t. I was going to be sitting at home.

Regarding his physical condition in 2008:

On the induction of Don West and Mike Tenay into the Impact Wrestling Hall of Fame:

I thought they were great. They were awesome.”
