Who is Perc Angle?
Some of Kurt's best work was done in TNA. 2010's era TNA was FIRE!
Perc Angle in TNA is goated
He’s absolutely right. There was not a better wrestler in the world than him for a good chunk of time
His first wwe run, Kurt says he was the best wrestler in the world for 4 yrs. And he is right! He's everyone's top 5 of all time for a reason. He proved to be the best.

@lovelykumari9553 haha. Okay, not everybody's top 5. I won't debate because you have your take on this. I will say, Kurt had great matches with different kinds of wrestlers of different styles. Well, I hope we can at most agree Kurt is an all-time great. But if he is not in your all-time great list, then there's something wrong on your end. Be well. Thank you for your reply.
The wrestling was better and brutal in tna than in wwe
I consider Kurt more of a TNA guy then I do a WWE guy He got more respect in TNA then he did in WWE

Yeah, in WWE he seemed to be more of a joke. Even in his rivalry with Brock, he had some goofy segments , even though their matches were still top notch. In TNA , he was the real deal, it was no nonsense when it came to what Kurt did in and out of the ring. I liked when he had that rugged, scruffy look during that time. It made him look like more of a badass.

I’ve been watching Kurt angle since 2000 and when he made his WWF debut and then went to TNA, which is now impact wrestling, which I still watch talk to this day. I think that Kurt angle should buy impact wrestling.

F TNA.
Kurt Angle before becoming Smackdown general manager was an absolute beast that made guys like Brock Lesnar, Stone Cold and John Cena tap out. He somehow made some of it after that by having rivalries with Shawn Michaels, John Cena and Mark Henry.

TNA WAS better than WWE.
I used to be a mark for wrestling and I didn’t like Kurt. Now I’m a smart mark and at his time in WWE he was the best wrestler there after Brett left. He was an amazing heel and definitely got that heat. He is great
I got to meet him at an Indy show a few years back. When he got in the ring and everyone is doing the you suck chant to his music I don't think I've ever seen a bigger more genuine smile in my life.
tna deserves more respect

The early days of TNA were really great. I would say even better than AEW. The breaking point for me was when they decided to have a regular four sided ring instead of the six sided. They literally took away TNA’s identity.

@cjmania1980 If only TNA had the budget and exposure AEW has as a company. In a way , it did remind me of WCW , but not in a bad way. I do agree that TNA in its early days , especially around the time Kurt debuted and they had the Main Event Mafia angle, 6-sided ring , X-Division matches , etc were definitely top notch.

TNA introduced me to wrestling outside of wwe (I started watching I think in the main event mafia era) Impact is still great imo
Kurt is one of the greatest wrestlers and entertainers to ever step in the squared circle. Kurt was amazing
Always was my favorite or second favorite wrestler as a kid growing up
Kind of funny how I first saw Kurt live on tv in Tna and only found out he was in wwe through playing the older wwe games.
I would say his career in WWE was better when it comes to the matches, because Kurt made some of the big names in WWE tapped out, guys like Stone Cold, Hulk Hogan, HBK, Kane, Undertaker, Brock Lesnar the list goes on and on. While in TNA, he only had a great career there by being a multiple time world champion and he conquered every title in TNA.

Don't forget to mention when he lead the Main Event Mafia faction , which was arguably the Four Horsemen of TNA.
I never really thought about that. He truly did have a better career in TNA.
He was great in WWE....he was great at TNA. Simple and easy....he was a big name for TNA and treated that way. WWE had numerous big names. Of course in terms of wrestling.. He is one of the best. He is my favorite no matter where he performed.
I'd say he was introduced to the world by the Olympics.

Didn't matter if it was a ppv or a regular tv broadcast, Angle almost always had match of the night for years in tna.
Greatest TNA Wrestle of all time... I watched TNA Wrestling because of Kurt Angle
He was in Impact Wrestling longer than WWE and became a huge star even though I don’t follow Impact Wrestling much.
I’d say arguably he was the best wrestler in wwe for 5.5 years from January 2000 when he wrestled taz at the rumble until he left during the ecwwe era in 2006 he was the best wrestler
Kurt Angela and Chris Benoit were ghe greatest wrestlers of all time
Ive always associated kurt with tna cuz i knew him best there. Sometimes i even forget that some of wwe’s who eventually became TNA’s biggest stars were at/started at wwe Kurt angle Kevin nash Aj styles Rikishi (but not really cuz he was only at tna for like 6 weeks) Showtime eric young Awesome kong etc
Him and bret would have had such great matches. Could have had the usa vs Canada run with Kurt joining dx lol
Perc angle !!
In TNA, Kurt was built like a freaking wrestling machine, while in WWE, he was slowly turn to a entertainer more
TNA Kurt angle aka Perc Angle arguably greatest pro wrestler to ever do it!
Not gonna lie his tna run was better he had opportunities to go wrestle in Japan while still signed that match with Brock was incredible in Japan as well some great matches outside of New York territory
Kurt Angle is one of the greatest of all time in the history of the wrestling business.
I agree the TNA schedule is what gave him extra years in the ring and kept him well paid. Another year in WWE could have been disastrous.
Kurt angle along with bret hart were the pure wrestlers athletes ... Their moves and performances were actually beautiful and they had great techniques better than many wwe greats or baby faces.
It’s crazy he was better in TNA in his prime at WWE he was legendary but in TNA his character went from a heel to a true villainous heel/ tweener way more sophisticated and way more PERCED UP
TNA Perc Angle was a different animal
Perc was a 99 overall in TNA

Truly a great wrestler.. somewhere amongst the likes of Bret hart, stone cold, undertaker
I will always prefer watching TNA over WWE. TNA is way more hardcore 💕
Kurt Angle vs Bret Hart if only....
TNA used to be so good from like 2005-2011. It was easily more entertaining than WWE in those years
WWE only truly took Kurt seriously in 2005-2006, when Kurt went to TNA, TNA TOOK WHAT WWE STARTED WITH AND JUST RAN WITH IT, and looking back on his first years in WWE, I'M GLAD THEY DID, his first 3 to 4 years with WWE were embarrassing, yeah he won titles but he was just an afterthought, when he should've been the wrestling machine in those 3 years, but noooooooooo, they made him a dork, AN AWKWARD DORK, AND IT'S PAINFUL TO LOOK BACK ON.
The prime TNA since 2006 till 2010 was better than the WWE from 2013 till now and AEW's whole run...
Because of PERC.
perc angle was the best tna 💪
