Kurt Angle Has Been Diagnosed With A Neck Tumor

At the Impact tapings on Saturday night, Kurt Angle came out to the ring to announce that he was taking time off because he needs major surgery to remove a tumor in his neck. As part of the taping, EC3 came out to beat up Angle, but apparently the actual diagnosis is not part of any storyline.

Angle has been battling neck issues his whole career, going back to his broken freaking neck at the 1996 Olympics. He also had neck surgery during his time in the WWE and eventually parted ways with the company partly due to concerns over his health. Still, he’s been a staple of TNA television. Angle has also had a tumor that was diagnosed as benign in 2012.

Wrestling is secondary at this point and we can only send well wishes and prayers for one of the greats.
