In an interview with Addiction Pro, WWE RAW General Manager Kurt Angle discussed a variety of topics, including improvements in WWE’s Wellness Policy.
“WWE has a great wellness policy now. You have to pass physicals through WWE doctors, not your own. But back then, I was convincing my doctor to get me back as soon as possible. As long as you were cleared by a doctor in 2003, WWE was OK with it. Now, they have their own doctors you have to go through. I rushed back in there long before I should have. That was my own fault, talking my doctor into clearing me.”
