Well, WWE doesn't count as a pro sport. In any case, I've never heard of any such requirement in MLB or the NBA, or whatever.

Well Kurt, you really are an idiot. It's hard for me to have any respect for a man that seems to have thrown away not only his health, but his family all for continuing down a path of destruction. I hope it works out for him, but I'll shed no tears or praise him in eulogy.

If anyone thinks that WWE screwed up by releasing Kurt now that he's gone to TNA, you are wrong. It still was the right decision.

Does that mean YOUR going to change YOUR name to something a little less reminiscent of YOUR former Olympic Hero?

No. The right decision would be to hold him to his contract and order him to check into rehab. They are just as guilty as TNA as he had these problems for years and they didn't nothing. When he rebroke his neck and he got the quick surgery to fix it so he could come back to their ring as soon as humanly possible, I didn't see WWE refuse. They booked him and pushed him when he was in serious pain. I praise them for what they did to help Regal and Eddie Guerrero but it goes both ways.

I in no way blame TNA for jumping on the oppotunity to sign Angle. WWE jumped on Brian Pillman years ago and did nothing to help him either. They also kept Shawn Michaels was he was a wreck. If this was 1998 and someone like Raven, Curt Hennig or Konnan was release due to drug issues, Vince McMahon would sign him in a heartbeat. Infact, they did sign guys with serious drug issues - Sean Waltman and Davey Boy Smith.

Let's see Kurt win the Title with NO FREAKIN' SPINE!

Somehow, with Kurt, I can not only see it, but hear the promos after it.

You kidding? Not only would he do that, but also become the Futurama Intergalactic champion...

"I won intergalactic gold with only my freakin' head!"
