WWE (Magazine) takes shot at Kurt Angle, compares him to Lex Luger, Macho Man
Thanks to Joe Arcurio for the following. ... I was flipping through the January 2007 issue of WWE Magazine (which is actually a decent magazine now), and they have an awards section for 2006. They gave Kurt Angle the "Good Riddance Award". And underneath his picture it says, "What's the best way to re-invent yourself? Walk out at the peak of your career! Worked wonders for Lex Luger and Randy Savage."

Lex Luger and Randy Savage were certainly not at the peak of thier careers when they left WWE. WWE sounds a little bitter there.

Savage was a ring announcer. That's kind of low, don't you think?

And Luger was in a tag team wrestling Jacob and Eli Blu on PPV. Yea

Both Savage and Luger became World champions of the highest rated wrestling company on TV after leaving the WWE, and were able to finish their careers in main event spots earning a ton of money.

Yeah, it DID work for them.

I wish some top WWE guy would pull a Luger and just show up on Impact the same week after he was on a WWE show. It would be the greatest.

Edit: forgot Impact was still taped. Well when they go live then.

Technically I dont think that can happen. Legally or contractually at least. Vince was very old fashioned with his business in the pre-monday night war days and contracts and stuff were dealt with simply. Vince took Luger and other guys on their word that they'd resign

And to my knowledge back then there weren't all kinds of red tape and no compete clauses and stuff.

So I guess technically someone like Rob Van Dam or whoever COULD quit WWE today and show up on TNA tomorrow. But there'd be all kinds of consequences and lawsuits and the taping probably wouldnt get aired.

I guess. They're just adressing the situation with a crack. I like Angle and maybe the statements wrong but it's funny.

TNA does the same shit multiple times a week (on their programming). So then wouldnt the joke be on them?

That doesn't exactly make WWE look any better though. They could try to be the better 'man' or company in this case, but they don't, and its just typical of how things are these days.

But technically they do. They never respond to challenges, jabs, shoots, skits, and threats from TNA.
I see what you're saying but I think this is an isolated incident of one writer taking a shot at a guy whos done entire shoot interviews about WWE, and I dont think its really that bad all things considered.

Very few people will actually read or understand it anyways.

WWE can only dream of having someone of Angle's quality at the level he was a few years ago, and he was as loyal as hell to them until they released him.

Kurt Angle was working on WWE's C-Brand Show...

Randy Savage was working as an announcer...

Les Lugar was doing usless team ups...

THEN

Kurt is in the main fued that the entire company is being based around...

Savage made millions and millions of dollars and got a porn star as a rebound...

Lugar beat Hogan for the WCW Title, and stayed in a company that paid him millions.

(Sometimes I think WWE doesn't realise they arn't the end all be all...)

In all fairness, Kurt was only on the C-brand show because of how big a star they knew/thought he was and they wanted him to carry it.

And though I agree that Vince can be very undunderstanding of family and injuries since work is his main priority, some of the things Kurt Angle rubbed me the wrong way. I mean, to say that he was being held back and not given "a run" is exaggerated and pales in comparison to guys like RVD, Jericho, Booker, Christian and dozens and dozens of others.

The truth of all things like this seem to always lay somewhere inbetween each side of the story

The ridiculous thing to me is that he was a World Champion at the beginning of the year and was never really beat one-on-one for the title. "Good riddance" to arguably the best wrestler on the SmackDown!/ECW rosters (from a mark's viewpoint, I mean).

Plus, they're saying Kurt's in the "peak of his career"? Wouldn't that kind of make TNA seem even better to anyone that hears about it and hears/sees that Kurt Angle is in it?

I don't think it makes TNA look any better, its more to do with the WWE looking worse than they already do.

They've only just recently worked their way back to semi-good terms with the Hitman, though...

yea, pepsiman took the words out of their mouth. They wouldn't make a comment like that involving the hitman, even if it wasn't meant to be derogitory. They've steadily been patching things up with him and they wouldn't want to blow their relationship with him over one reference. Seems like they're this close to getting him to appear on their programming in some way and the company doesn't want to blow that $$$ oppurtunity.

Do anyone aside from fanboys read WWE magazine? It's another way for them to burn TNA without mentioning them, relegate Angle to jobber status, and so on. I mean, sure, it doesn't have shit to do with the truth, but when has WWE ever dealt with that?

But the way I read that, it's more like a compliment to Angle, even if not intended that way.

Who cares either way. I dont even see how it makes the WWE look stupid, its a shitty jab that very limited people will even see. It certainly doesnt make them look good, but I'm just saying.

I'd also be curious how many people who have criticized this comment were posting "good riddance, good for you go break your neck, i can't wait til kurt dies" and so on, no less than 3 months ago.

I'm sure they wont be showing up a week later though. WWE has no compete clauses and shit so there'll be some time period between their last WWE appearance and their first TNA appearance.

Plus TNA wouldn't debut them that way anyways, they'd most likely run vignettes, make the annoucnement and use it to hype up ratings or buyrates for the debut.

This is all assuming any of those guys go to TNA. I think RVD will, but not Benoit or Rey. Who knows though.

Yeah, but you're intelligent, reasonable, and not a fanboy (that I can tell). I really think that the number of people reading this who fall into that category are limited.
