In what years did Kurt Angle start to nocticeably decline in ring?

[InstantKlassik]

Thats interesting some of y'all think it was 04-05 when arguably that and the start of TNA was when many still thought he was great

I dont know, I didnt pay attention to much to his TNA run but when the few matches and indie dates he did he looked okay. For me it was when he came back to WWE everything seemed off

Yep. He had a match with Cody in 2016 and looked good. Was moving fine in the ring. Wasn’t blown up or gassed at the end either.

Cody sucks. He's just living off of the prestige of Goldust and Dusty Rhodes.

One of the most boring wrestlers I've ever seen.

I can't be the only one.

Seeing how skinny Angle got in TNA was fukking alarming especially remembering how roided out he looked during the Wrestling Machine/Violence era.

Starting in WWECW he got increasingly unnerving to look at

I think when he got skinny in TNA from the coke abuse

Wait now theres people who think Angle vs Michaels wasnt good?

It’s literally 30 mins of non sense, legit no logic in it besides moves, holds & spots. Michaels is pretty bad in it too tho so the blame needs to be on both guys

Lol Eddie/Angle never had good chemistry

They don’t call him CAWdy for nothing

Kurt Blow wasted the best years of his life in some shytty wrestling federation, SMDH.

At one point he was easily top 5 and I mean during the Attitude era too.

Is that what that means lmao? You mean "CAW" as in the Create A Wrestler from the old N64 and PS games?

I knew I wasn't the only one. He's gotta know that he's violently unentertaining.

Kurt was so bad at maintaining while in TNA. You watch 2006-2008 and you can instantly tell when he's clean and when he's on a bender and he's like a completely different person. When you go beyond that he had entire years where he was clearly fukked up every time he was on TV.

Yes breh

When CAWdy use to wear the wrestling trunks with no elbow pads or knee pads with the Super Cuts haircut

 

[Rell84shots]

To answer the OP question, Kurt's decline was his last few years in TNA. Anyone saying his decline started in 05 or the first half of his TNA run are just trolling.
