But I was really excited about this. Because I knew it would draw a lot of heat. It is [makes it feel super important]. You know… It is… I’ve had my gold medal since I started. Did I ever have security before that? So all of a sudden I have security and now I’m an asshole,” Kurt Angle said.

Last year, I did a segment in Pittsburgh where I had the milk truck in the arena and I sprayed down Chad Gable and Otis with milk. That was a remake of what I did against Steve Austin in 2001.

“They also had a birthday celebration for me. I do certain events with them. I’m still signed with them, I have a contract with WWE.

I’ll eventually do something crazy with WWE and I’m sure I will in the future.” [H/T Fightful.com]
