Episode 223 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we’re beginning our series of episodes on professional wrestlers who enjoyed success in other amateur & professional sports.
Today we’re discussing Kurt Angle. A 2x NCAA Champion in the Heavyweight Division, Angle remains only one of four people to win the Junior Nationals, NCAA, World Championships & an Olympic Gold Medal. The last of which he won with an injured neck at the 1996 Summer Olympics.
Angle made a seamless transition from amateur wrestling to professional wrestling shortly after his amateur career ended & was a star in WWF/WWE.
Angle was 4x Champion in WWE, a 6x TNA Champion & was inducted into the WWE HOF.
