KURT ANGLE

I'm going to keep this one short since I have work soon. He can talk and he can wrestle. He brought some legitimacy to the sport. He's put his body though quite a bit, and even completed the triple threat finish with a concussion. I give him a 9.4, the only thing missing is an amazing send off and not overstaying his career and I'll round it up to a 10 as soon as it happens. Amazing wrestler.

Poll to come.

EDIT: title said #3 sorry

Rankings
#1 HHH - 7.89
#2 Rey Mysterio - 6.59

I gotta throw a 10 in there because he is the total F'in package... And proves it over and over... Plus always coming up with new angles, pun intended... For example, him taking on the entire top 10 roster and he has to beat them all before he gets another title shot... And what about the Matches with Shane-O-Mac... King of the Ring 98?? Brutally awesome.. He sells everyone and never quits... Plus I gave HHH a 10 I think, so there is no question here at all for me...

[Lock Jaw]

Angle is a perfect 10.

He can talk, he can work, he can sell pizza.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>There are maybe 5 guys tops that I would give out 10s to. Angle is certainly one of them. Legend.</font>

[DAMN iNATOR]

10. He's proven he could do it all:

LOL, I'd actually forgotten that he was sometimes (oftentimes even?) referred to as "Mr. Angle" for his run as SmackDown! G.M.

Also, on Kurt's behalf, to all of those who just can't quit chanting those "2 words" every time they hear his theme, allow me to provide this quite intelligent, well thought-out counter-argument:

Oh, it's true...IT'S DAMNED TRUE! :yes:

This theme would have been so Awesome if not for the crappy loop at the beginning. Luckily, in this version, someone has chopped that loop out!

[Rammsteinmad]

10.

One of the greatest wrestlers of all time.

[Nicky Fives]

Angle is a 10

[VSG]

Man you guys are handing out those 10's so easily!

[Attitude99]

Nothing Less Than a 10

[Innovator]

top 10 all time, so he's a 10.

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

10, Kurt Angle has done it all.

King Of The Ring 2001.... KOTR 1998 was highlighted by Taker/Foley Hell In A Cell and Kane winning his first (and only) WWF Title

[Haze]

Really have to agree with everyone else here and go with a 10 for Angle. The guy is just above and beyond so many other guys, you have to put him in a class by himself.

[Swiss Ultimate]

Kurt Angle is/was an excellent wrestler who is above average on the mic' and almost unrivaled when it comes to discipline.

Drug use and TNA have done a lot against his character though.

[The Pope]

Come on, he won a gold medal with a broken freakin' neck!

[tjmidnight420]

Drug use and TNA have done a lot against his character though.

This is the only reason I didn't give Kurt a 10.

[XCaliber]

Angle is an easy 9 i'd say he's on par with guys like Triple H.

[Tazz Dan]

Angle never won the Royal Rumble. Triple H has.

[James Steele]

He is one of the elite few who are the same caliber of Triple H. I will spontaneously ejaculate when he comes back home to Papa McMahon.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Angle never won the Royal Rumble. Triple H has.

Triple H has also been in TONS of WrestleMania main events, and Kurt was in like one or two, and I'd still say there's one alone of Kurt's that can easily top ANY main event Trips has been in.

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

That is one of the best matchs ever, props to both men.

[Joesgonnakillyou]

If Angle's not a 10 no one is. truly incredible.

[Xero]

Easily a 10. He's one of the only ones I can look at and say he's a Total Package and does EVERYTHING close to perfection.

[Tazz Dan]

Kurt Angle > Bo Derek?

[DarKCentaur]

Kurt Angle > Bo Derek?

Kurt Angle >= Bo Jackson?
