More news on Angle's departure: ECW and Summerslam

[Oldschool]

It is said that many in the ECW locker room turned on Kurt Angle following his 30 day suspension. Angle accidently dropped Rob Van Dam and blamed it on RVD. Angle was also said to be furious he wasn't booked for Summerslam.

Angle called John Laurinaitis on 8/21, and claimed he was being wheeled around the airport and that his sports massage therapist told him he had a torn abdominal muscle. Vince McMahon ordered Laurinaitis to set up an MRI for Angle, and apparently made the decision then and there to terminate Angle.

The 8/25 meeting at Titan Towers involved Angle, his manager (and former bodybuilder Dave Hawk), McMahon and Laurinaitis. WWE paid Angle an undisclosed amount of money, and released him from his contract. It is unclear if Angle is subject to the standard 90 day no complete clause, as terms of his release have not been made known. Typically, WWE pays a released wrestler during the 90 days, and in the case of Angle, that would amount to about $250,000.

information from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter was used in this report

Atleast he recieved redundancy money. He could live off of that if he is wise with his money and maybe return in a couple of years.

[Oldschool]

Yeah, though I wonder how he and the WWE feel about each other now. Sure would like to know the whole story on this!

[Colonel_Rule]

I think WWE are pissed because this fucked up many storylines and Angle is pissed because he wanted the title.

[Oldschool]

Yeah, but there's probably more to it than that... [You trying to get your 1000 posts right now?]

[Colonel_Rule]

That's not bad. I might consider one of those.

[The Evolution Of Life]
