Kurt Angle Reveals Backstage Talk In WWE When Hulk Hogan Came Back

First impressions are everything.

Unfortunately for Kurt Angle, he made a bad one on Hulk Hogan.

The Olympic gold medalist and WWE / IMPACT Wrestling Hall of Fame legend spoke on the latest installment of his “Kurt Angle Show” podcast about how he regrets making a bad first impression on “The Hulkster” in WWE.

“Great guy,” Angle said of Hogan. “And I felt bad about everybody telling me, Watch out, Hulk Hoganโ€™s coming. Heโ€™s going to politicize. Heโ€™s going to fight for himself and not for anybody else, and they got me all fired up like this guy was a bad person.”

Angle continued, “He wasnโ€™t at all. He didnโ€™t do any political thing. No politicizing, no, nothing political. He was; he just came and was there to work. He was there to work hard and make a living. And I felt bad about how my first impression was of him.”
