WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle’s brother, Eric, is once again in trouble with the law. According to a report from CBS Pittsburgh, Eric was indicted for allegedly selling anabolic steroids and other drugs online. On Thursday, Eric was indicted on charges including conspiracy to distribute controlled substances and conspiracy to import controlled substances.
According to the indictment, Eric Angle was one of three men who sold the drugs on the “Dark Web.” The men would then ship them under fake names through UPS. Some of the steroids were imported from China and buyers could pay in cryptocurrency and/or cash.
Eric Angle appeared on WWE TV at Survivor Series 2000. During a match between Kurt Angle and The Undertaker, Eric distracted The Undertaker by wearing Kurt’s gear and switching places with his brother. The following night, The Undertaker attacked him and he wound up signing a WWE developmental deal. He worked in OVW and appeared on an episode of SmackDown! Live during the feud between Kurt and Brock Lesnar leading into WrestleMania XIX. In 2003, he was released from his developmental contract.
Also, Eric Angle was arrested for assault in March of 2019 after he was caught on video picking up a student at a wrestling tournament where he was a coach, and slamming him to the mat. The charges were eventually dropped.
