During an interview with WrestlingInc.com, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle commented on turning down an opportunity to join AEW:
“Yes, they offered me a couple of different contracts. I turned it down for personal reasons, but Tony Khan’s been really nice to me, very generous, and I really appreciate his interest in having me there. But at this particular time, I can’t do it.”
“The first offer, they wanted me to have many matches. The next offer, I think, was three matches, and then one was just an on-camera personality, no wrestling.”
In another interview from earlier this year, Angle said he has a good relationship with WWE and would “like to keep it that way.”
