Kurt Angle has revealed in an upcoming interview that he has had offers to join both AEW and Impact Wrestling. Speaking to Fightful Select, he revealed that it was Shaq who tried to recruit him. Angle claimed that AEW made an offer for a “run” with the company after his retirement. However, he stated that though he was flattered by the offer, his body was too beat up for him to be able to compete at the level he previously managed.

Angle also stated that Impact Wrestling was in contact at one point. According to Angle, Impact offered him a “one shot deal”. But despite Angle spending almost ten years with the company and, by his own admission he holds a soft spot for the company, he never seriously considered the offer.

During the interview, Angle would also note that he had rejected two offers from UFC President Dana White during his career. One of these was because he could not wrestle elsewhere alongside fighting for the company.

Kurt Angle was retired by Baron Corbin at WrestleMania 35.
