Kurt Angle Says The Undertaker Taught Him The Ropes In WWE

By | March 14, 2022

The Undertaker is one of the most decorated Superstars in the world of professional wrestling. His accolades, let alone the 23-2 streak at WrestleMania, are a testament to the greatness of The Phenom. He also influenced countless people along the way, including Kurt Angle.

Taker squared off with some of the best wrestlers in the business during his in-ring career in the WWE. From Shawn Michaels to Kurt Angle, the Deadman tested his skills against the very best in the business.

During a recent episode of The Zaslow Show, the Olympic Hero recalled how Taker helped him when Angle joined the WWE during the height of the Attitude Era in 1999. The two would share the ring on more than one occasion and Angle learned a lot along the way.

“‘Taker taught me a lot. I worked with him quite a bit when I started out and he taught me the ropes. He was really good. His psychology is very basic, but it absolutely works well. And following him and letting him lead me really helped me out in my career.”

Taker is set to headline the Hall of Fame Class of 2022 in his hometown of Texas. WWE Chairman Vince McMahon will induct the legendary performer into the Hall of Fame. The HOF ceremony takes place Friday, April 1st right after Friday Night SmackDown.
