TNA Champion Kurt Angle was interviewed this week by EagleTribune.com. One of the notable parts of interview was Kurt Angle talking about defeating John Cena in Cena's first televised WWE match:
"I remember he was really green," recalled Angle of Cena's first match. "He was really nervous that first night. My job that night was to make him look good. I was going to win, because I was the established guy and the company thought I needed to keep that momentum, but I wanted to make John look good. I set it up with him so I would win, but he would look better than me. He kicked out of my finisher, and I won with a quick pin."
Kurt Angle continued by praising Cena, recognizing his natural ability and work ethic. "I knew John would be special. I give him a lot of credit; he works so hard at it. He's a great kid, and when I worked him, we were on TV every week, but my job was to teach him, and he was a great learner. He's one of the guys in the WWE I still really respect. I'm proud of him, and I'm proud to say I helped him a little bit."

Angle still considers Cena the best wrestler in the world, other than himself, of course.

Nice to see Kurt still has his head screwed on straight for a few things.

Cena's original gimmick, or lack thereof, as "the generic blue chipper who likes ruthless aggression" was dreadful. Almost as bad as the The Prototype.

All he does is...well, nobody knows what he does. Seriously, stop attacking peoples favourites, its not the end of the world because John Cena hasn't got every fan up his hole. |

he should have thought him a moonsault . When trying to be smart, you should always learn how to spell, especially simple words like... taught Anyways, Angle is a great wrestler and maybe did give Cena the initial rub he needed, but Cena came into his own once he did the rapper gimmick, followed by the never lose thing, now he is on a great level in which I feel he is one of the best. |

Kurt Angle invented Pro Wrestling, just ask him. He will tell you. Well he reinvented it for sure, no doubt in my mind. I don't really get your dig at Angle, I'm fairly sure any wrestler in both WWE and TNA will say Kurt Angle is one of the best pure wrestlers in the business if not ever. |

You have Cryme Tyme in your signature? All they do is hiptosses and clotheslines. They have a more entertaining gimmick. That's a total contradiction. You rag on Cena for not having the biggest moveset, but then say that gimmick matters more. |
