- Chad Gable took to Twitter this week and shared a trading card signed for him by WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle 20 years ago. Gable then thanked Angle for their match on RAW, which Angle won as a part of his Farewell Tour. You can see Gable's tweet with Angle's reply below. Angle said it was an honor to be in the ring with Gable on Monday.
What's that saying about heroes becoming rivals??
?@RealKurtAngle signed this for me in 2000. Wished me luck after I told him I was going to make the Greco-Roman Olympic Team and then wrestle in WWE.

20 years later, here we are.?

Thank you Chad. You're an Amazing athlete, and one of the most technical Superstars in the business. It was an honor to be in the ring with you. #itstrue #fellowolympians https://t.co/7tSbpU7BKa
