Kurt Angle Says He Hasn’t Taken WWE’s Physical, But Is Being Drug Tested
WWE Raw General Manager Kurt Angle was interviewed by Fox Sports Australia talking about his career and potential future in the WWE. You can see highlights below, and the full interview at this link.
WWE drug testing:
"I haven't taken the physical to wrestle but the drug testing — I'm part of that. I'm a talent on TV. Although they don't treat me as a wrestler, if you're a talent, you're involved in everything. You can get drug tested at any point in time."
His Jason Jordan angle leading to an in-ring return:
"I would say I will most likely wrestle. I have not taken a physical yet. I'm basically waiting on the boss. It's up to Vince McMahon. I would imagine I will. I'd imagine the storyline is going to go somewhere with Jason Jordan, so I'm just being patient and enjoying the general manager job. Hopefully, eventually I'll get back to wrestling."
What kind of schedule he could wrestle, and potential opponents:
"Depending on how they use me — I could wrestle a few years or I could wrestle a few months. If they're selective and put me with guys who really need that rub or guys at the top and want to put me in the title picture. I can't do it full-time. I can't do what I used to be doing but I can still go. I can probably do it for a few more years. They would have to be very selective with how they use me. There's talent I've wrestled already like HHH, [John] Cena, Brock Lesnar, Randy Orton and ones I haven't. The ones that come to mind are Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns. Dean Ambrose, Sheamus and Cesaro, Rusev — hopefully I'll be able to mix it up with a few of those guys as well."
