Speaking on his podcast The Kurt Angle Show, ‘The Olympic Gold Medalist’ revealed that he had sent inappropriate texts and voicemails to Vince. They had a meeting at Stamford, and Vince made Angle read these disrespectful messages out loud. Even though Angle had realized his mistake while reading the messages, it was too late to apologize.
Angle said:
“I’m reading the text messages, and as I’m doing it, Vince says, ‘You want to beat my ass?’ He stands up and takes his jacket off and says ‘let’s fight right now.’ I’m like, holy shit, my boss, the man I look up to as a father figure, wants to beat my ass. I look around the room and Shane is halfway out of his seat because if I get up, Shane is gonna jump me,” said Angle.
Angle stated that he was not in a good mental state at that time and he was not fully in his senses when he took the actions. Angle’s texts to McMahon contained some big threats:
“I was like, ‘What the hell are these?’ I’m reading them, and they say ‘Vince, I’m gonna kick your ass when I see you,’ ‘Vince, if you don’t call me back, I’m gonna beat the shit out of you,’ all these threats,” said Angle.
