In speaking to GoErie.com, TNA Impact Wrestling superstar Kurt Angle noted that injuries during his professional wrestling careeer could make his chances at an Olympic comeback in London later this year slim to none.
“Slim to none, I’m 43 years old and I’m not as good as I used to be, obviously, but I believe I can still contend. I’ve beaten myself up a lot when I came back and started working out for the Olympics this time, I kept getting hurt. I popped a patellar tendon, then I popped an Achilles, then I blew out my hamstring. I went to my doctor and said, ‘What’s going on? I’m a machine, I don’t get hurt.’ He said you’re over 40, things are gonna happen to you unless you train. So I spent four months training just to get ready to get back on the mat.”
