Could be a 9.5 (Or maybe higher) if he wasnt throwing his weight into the political area of things now...

9/10. Not anyone that much better than him, and he's a great entertainer, but I wouldn't say he is perfect.

There arent that many wrestlers out there who i would give a perfect 10 to but Angle is one of the very few exceptions.

He's got all the goods, and wrestling is a pleasure to watch when he's involved.

9.2, many injuries have slowed him down abit but Angle remains the best in the business. Plus, with Kurt moving his weight around with Taker on SD!, it lowers the score since he is someone who does not need to as he is the best wrestler there with Eddie. If he calmed that down, the score would have be higher.

9.5

Excellent ring ability.

Excellent attitude (I know he got into a fight with Eddie recently, but unless we know all the facts I suggest giving him the benefit of the doubt as his record is otherwise without blemish).

A legitimate athlete and a great showman; the man can turn face or heel at the drop of a hat.

So why didn't I give himj 10? Because I think never in his career has he ever been used to his full potential. And, unfortuantely, I think his nagging injuries have a lot to do with it. Angle was head of a dominant stable, but before Team Angle could escalate to Evolution-sized proportions, the neck injury caused the push to come to an abrupt end. Similarly, earlier this year, Angle seemed set to transition from a somewhat comedic face/comedic heel role to a sadistic badass. (Remember that scene where he was taping up his hand?) Sadly, injuries sidelined him again, and he's back to the goofy Kurt Angle character again.

I personally think Angle is only a hair short of reaching mainstream superstar status like The Rock and Stone Cold.

10, he is god. He is the one of the three dieties worshiped in the Chruch of Bischoff (along him Bischoff and Paul Heyman). How can he not be 10. HE WON THE OLYMPICS WITH A BROKEN FUCKING NECK!!!!

As great wrestler he may be.. his matches does bore me, and so does his character. So... I'll give him an 8.5

THe most perfect package in a wrester today. He has it all. Besides Bret Hart, this will be the only 10 I'm ever gonna give.

I didn't always like Angle so much in the past. But he has grown on me because he has grown so much himself in the relatively short while he has been in this business. The fact that he won an Olympic Gold Medal with a broken neck, in my books, warrants him a 10+ for guts, fortitude, and character.

I'm gonna say 8. The politics have dragged him down 1.5 because he claims to have integrity. The other 0.5 is because his matches tend to be on the slightly boring side and he still makes references to his gold medals. I know he went through a lot to get there, I've read his book, but it WAS 8 years ago. I mean Triple H doesn't still mention he was 1997 King of the Ring winner does he?

This my last rate. Give Austin and Foley a 10 for me. The Rock,Taker gets a 9. HHH gets a 9.5.

Why is people taking points off for politics? We don't know what's going on. Even if he used politics, I would rather for a talented guy like him to used all his weight.

RIng Ability-10, the guy can wrestle any style with near perfection.
Workrate- 10, he wrestle with a bad neck and still give 110% efforts.
Mic Skills-10, he can be serious or funny and still do it with perfection.
Overness-9.5, am not sure that the fans is into him as much as the net is.
Entertainment factor-9.5,that amature stuff bores me sometimes

Overall-9.8, second best wrestler in the World today behind HBK.

NOTE: Respect our wrestlers while they still living. Don't let the net change you. The fans should never care about politics.

No he doesn't because Angle's gold medal win wasn't scripted unlike the King of the Ring. Plus it's part of his personna, the gold medals that he keeps going on about is to show that he's big headed and better than us when he's a heel because he has gold medals. Or when he's a face that he won the gold medals for the USA.
Triple H's KOTR win is nothong compared to Angle's achievement.

Anyway a 9.5 for Angle.

The King of the Ring isn't exactly an Olympic Gold Medal, now is it?

WTF @ a bunch of people giving him 10 for politics

He's no Chris Jericho in that department.OK, I'm not expert on the dirtsheets, so I may be wrong, but I don't ever recall hearing about Kurt doing anything wrong besides his recent scuffle with Eddie, which I wouldn't even classify as politics, I'd just classify as losing his temper. Jericho got in a fight with Goldberg a few years back if I recall correctly.

Besides that, I really don't see why politics should be an issue when it comes to rating a wrestler. You're rating how entertaining they are on television, I don't really see why it matters if they're an asshole backstage or whatever. I know that it can have an impact on the airtime of other wrestlers, ect. but I really don't think anybody on here knows enough to accuratly be able to rate on a 1-100 scale how well somebody conducts themselves backstage.

Example: I think JBL is a real piece of trash in real life. I despise him, and think he should be in court for what he did in Germany.

However, as much as I hate him, I must admit that, from the little I've seen of his JBL gimmick (havn't seen Smackdown on a consistent basis in months), he's really entertaining on TV, and thus I'd rate him accordingly.
