In a recent interview with The Takedown, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle discussed several topics, including being part of the WWE roster during the Attitude Era.

“I was very lucky to get in the business right in the peak of the Attitude Era, it was the best era in wrestling and the crazy thing about back then was everybody was a star, it didn’t matter if you were the opening card match, mid-card match, main event card match, you were a star and your name was held in high regard.

Nowadays, you have your handful of stars, and then everybody else is kind of at a lower level. Back then, everybody was the household name, I mean The Godfather, Val Venis and Bob Holly, and then you know, The Undertaker, The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin, just everybody was widely known throughout the world.

If you want to be at the top of the heap, you have to produce, so I knew that when I started.”
