Kurt Angle To Take Break from TNA due to Injuries

News

According to his twitter, after Lockdown, Angle will be taking a few weeks off to rest and heal up some nagging injuries and spend time with his children.

First off, Angle’s needed time off for years, so this is absolutely a good idea. Announcing it this way was absolutely ridiculous though. Guys taking time off are the perfect time for injury angles to add heat. Whether Ken Anderson or another heel, laying out Angle and making him miss time is a great way to kick off a hot story. Instead, Angle totally buries the chance of that, making sure no one gets over while he takes a break. Imagine Ricky Steamboat telling people he needed time off before Randy Savage injured his throat in the lead to Wrestlemania 3. Bad business.
