WWE Hall of Famer Sharmell talked about the 2005 storyline in which Kurt Angle was pursuing her in an interview with Chris Van Vliet.
Sharmell said, “Because I was so new at that time, I don’t even know, they were like, ‘Okay here’s what you’re doing.’ Okay. I don’t know who came up with any of that, but I thought it was brilliant. Everybody’s real touchy right now in this day and age. But it didn’t bother me. I thought it was great.
It was interesting, but I don’t know if you could get away with that in this day and age. Everybody’s like, no, we can’t do that. It wouldn’t fly [today]. But because I knew it was acting, you know what I mean? Now, there are some serious situations out there that are like that and I don’t condone that at all, but when it was acting it was okay for me, that’s just me.”
Angle has gone on record to say it was the worst storyline of his career.
