- Kurt Angle recently spoke to The Daily Star newspaper in the UK. Here's what he said about sticking with TNA:

"I'm really happy. It's why I signed a long-term deal a year ago. The number one question I get asked is: 'When are you going back to WWE?' I don't plan on it but I never say no. I am treated well. I have more freedom to do other things too, so it's a win-win for me and for Impact Wrestling."
