I really hope he gets proven guilty.

He's been involved in at least three of these drunk driving incidents in recent years. Every time he seems to wiggle his way out through loop holes:

1. Already made it home before the cops could catch up to him after a bunch of people phoned the police on his driving.

2. Already crashed his vehicle while intoxicated and the cop did not technically see him driving.

3. Under the limit but driving enough of an idiot for people to phone the police on him.

They offer a lighter schedule, and nobody cares if you're a raging alcoholic.

Kurt Angle has provided the Certificate of Blood Alcohol Analysis, which was issued by the state of Virginia. In the document, it states that Angle’s blood alcohol level was .06. .08 is the legal limit in Virginia. He also offered the following comments on the situation…

“I did not believe my driving behavior was reckless or otherwise improper.

I fully cooperated with the officer who clearly recognized me while performing his standard procedures. Subsequent to the stop, I was asked to submit to a breathalyzer test and passed. I do not believe that I broke any laws and will be entering a plea of not guilty in response to any pending charges.

I was returning from an iMPACT Wrestling show in an unfamiliar place, late at night and was trying to find the exit for my hotel.”

You can click here to view his proof.

Cops Say Kurt Angle Was ‘All Over The Road’

By Ryan Clark on Tuesday, September 6th, 2011 at 4:42 PM EST

We noted earlier that TNA World Heavyweight Champion Kurt Angle says his blood alcohol level was below the legal limit of Virginia when he was arrested for driving under the influence Sunday morning.

TMZ obtained the Certificate of Blood Alcohol Analysis issued by the State of Virginia which shows Angle’s blood alcohol level was 0.06 at the time of his arrest. The legal limit in Virginia is 0.08.

NVDaily.com reported this morning that Virginia state police spokesman Sgt. F.L. “Les” Tyler received a third-party call of a vehicle headed eastbound on Interstate 66 that was swerving “all over the road.” Trooper C.R. Scally stopped the vehicle at 11:10 p.m. Saturday, which was occupied by Angle. He was arrested and susbequently transported to the Warren County Jail.

Regarding his erratic driving, Angle explains, “I was returning from an iMPACT Wrestling show in an unfamiliar place, late at night and was trying to find the exit for my hotel.”

We were the first to report that Kurt blew a .06 and was texting and driving at the time. We’ve since learned that the officer felt Angle may have been impaired by another substance besides alcohol. That is the reason for the DUI charge.

Would the company you worked for get blamed if you got drunk after work and drove home?

Can't people take responsibility for their own actions anymore?

Most companies would have fired me if I had Kurt Angle's record. Or refused to hire me altogether. Further, my job doesn't have a history of people dropping dead at relatively young ages due to abuse of drugs. Or a history of pushing them on their workers. Or a claim as to the routine check and for and opposition of such substances.

Of course, asking TNA to take responsibility for their decisions or supposed practices is wrong, but demanding personal responsibility on Angle's behalf is totally cool. And that's in no way hypocritical of you, brother.

Hey, I'm not saying that TNA shouldn't shoulder some of the blame here, I'm playing "Devil's Advocate" if anything.

Seems a lot of people on these boards will quickly jump to the defense of any individual wrestler (except Matt/Jeff Hardy or Hogan, of course) over any subject. First hint of someone who's not a wrestler having a bad word to say and that person is damned to hell by the "IWC" (see, the thread on Owen's wife, the thread on DH Smith's mother, etc).

There's contributing factors across the board but it seems it's easier to blame Canada TNA.

It is easier to blame TNA. But I don't think anyone's saying Kurt's JUST a victim.

I was just deconstructing your claim.

Also, I get that the IWC is loaded with tards who will defend pretty much anyone, even people they hate themselves, from outsiders. It's pretty much a cult.

But on the flipside, a lot of people have attacked him or say that they hope he sorts himself out. The level of actual fanboyism is pretty low, even if Kurt Angle was quite awesome.

On the flipside, this does raise an important question:

How fucked up is it that TNA makes WWE look responsible?
