"Kurt Angle couldn't tell a story in the ring"

What is telling a story in the ring anyway, whip out a book and start reading it to your opponent? :ohhh:

The story should come from promos and the build up, and the match a match. Just saying :yeshrug:

You're welcome to try. That's your opinion though, I doubt you'd be able to get that large a consensus of guys above Kurt.

Jumbo Tsuruta
Jack Brisco
Lou Thesz (who holy fukk was legit ass awesome from the 1950s up to the 80s)
Nick Bockwinkle
Stan Hansen
Genichiro Tenryu
Rick Rude
Steve Austin
Bret Hart
Arn Anderson
Tully Blanchard
The Destroyer
Dory Funk Jr.
Terry Funk
Giant Baba and Andre both were tremendous until early-mid 80s
Billy Robinson
Rick Martel (IMO one of the most underrated guys of all time)
Sayama Tiger Mask
Shinya Hashimoto
Barry Windham
Randy Savage
Dynamite Kid

Didn't even bother with the rest of that trash. At most maybe I'll spot you Austin.

Have you ever seen Rick Martel: Touring world champion before he was the Model? Dude was incredible.

For the past 15-20 years, I think it'd be pretty impossible to not have Kurt on your list. But my tastes skew older and Kurt is emblematic of a lot of issues in wrestling today that I can't get over so :yeshrug:. Of ALL TIME though? Dude isn't even retired yet. You can't be putting things on all time list without a little bit of distance. fukks were saying Avatar was the GOAT movie when it came out, too, ya know?

Views From The X
What hurts him is only about 14 people actually watched his TNA years. Plus he stole his theme from the patriot. But he is one of the very few that could go from a heel to a face and not get stale and repetitive
Sgt Slaughter the Medal theme used it as well.

Kurt Angle's Remix though >>>

My top 5 all time list would be

Jumbo Tsuruta
Bret Hart
Randy Savage
WCW era Rick Rude
Arn Anderson

In no particular order. I'm sure you can see why Kurt wouldn't be on my list of top 5. He'd def be in my top 30, though.
