Kurt Angle recalls the incident

While speaking during a recent episode of The Kurt Angle Show, Kurt Angle recalled how Vince McMahon ordered him to intimidate Hulk Hogan, prior to their 2002 King Of The Ring match.

“Vince told me beforehand, ‘I want you to get out of your seat and put your nose this close to Hulk Hogan’s nose.’ I am like, ‘Why do you want me to do this? It’s Hulk Hogan.’ What he’s trying to do is intimidate Hulk, and you can’t intimidate Hulk Hogan, he’s a freaking bad*ss…But the crazy thing is, Vince wanted me to get out of my seat and get real close to his face like I was threatening him – it was ridiculous.”

The intimidation backfired as Angle ended up winning the match, with Hulk Hogan tapping out to the Ankle Lock.

Speaking about, Vince McMahon, he has been entailed in a controversial matter. The Wall Street Journal recently unveiled that WWE is investigating a secret $3 million settlement paid to a former employee of Mr. McMahon. The probe has also scooped several claims of misconduct from former employees toward The Chairman and top executive John Laurinaitis. It is not known which member leaked the story. There are twelve people on the board. A video clip has surfaced on the internet which shows Vince McMahon alleged of sexual assault.

Vince has also stepped down from his positions of CEO and Chairman. WWE recently confirmed in a press release that Vince McMahon stepped down from the positions of Chairman and CEO. It was recently announced that the former WWE Chief Brand Officer Stephanie McMahon would taking up the duties as the interim WWE CEO And Chairwoman. Recently, in quite an interesting development from the Sports Business Journal, McMahon reached a settlement with former XFL commissioner Oliver Luck.
