Kurt Angle Says He Used to Take 65 Vicodin Per Day

Former WWE and TNA star Kurt Angle was recently interviewed by Dan Le Batard, and you can check out some highlights from the interview here:

On abusing Vicodin during the height of his career:

“I was on a lot — there was no way I couldn’t get out of it,” the 47 year-old-said via phone call on Friday morning’s show. “The only thing I could do was eventually go to rehab and try to fix my life again. But I actually beat it on my own. I stayed in my house for about 10 days and didn’t leave, and I was able to get through the withdrawal.”

On getting four DUI’s in only five years:

“The thing is, everybody drank down there [in TNA],” said Angle. “So I started drinking with my meds. And then I started manipulating my meds. I would save all of them until the evening, and drink it with alcohol. And it got me in a lot of trouble — four DUIs in five years.”
