Kurt Angle Injury Update - A Week Off

By Ryan Clark | October 17, 2011 | Comments (5)

After retaining the TNA World Heavyweight Title at Sunday night's TNA Bound For Glory pay-per-view against Bobby Roode, Kurt Angle tweeted Monday night that he's taking a week off to deal with his hamstring injury. No word on if this means one TV taping or an entire week of in-ring action.

"Great Ppv last night.Bobby Roode is one of the Best Wrestlers today! I am Still Going for Olympics. Only taking 1 Week Off 2 heal hamstring!"

Kudos for Angle for putting his opponent over at least on Twitter. Chalk up Bisch and Angle as two guys putting him over in interviews/tweets.

[Protest the Chris Hero]

Yeah cause Twitter puts butts in seats...

Looks like we'll have to wait a bit before Bobby Roode wins the title on TV.

No no no, Roode will come out and demand a shot, lose, and be beaten down by Angle and the rest of Immortal. Then Hogan will come save Roode, and somehow fight Angle for the title and win ala WM IX.

All the while Abyss will stand on the stage and sing "I Wanna Be A Hulkamaniac" acapella.

I feel like his Olympic aspirations are a joke that he is the only one not in on.

[dav]

When are the TV tapings this week?

[Next Level was WRONG]

And within that time he somehow racks up more 15 DUIs.

[Turd Ferguson]

In other news: IW is running drug tests on everyone who is performing at this week's tapings.

tonight & tomorrow

[FailedGimmick]

He's not going to be happy until he winds up dying in the ring mid match.

[Mayonnaise]

I wonder if he means he's taking one full week off or just one taping off and will be back for next weeks taping on Wed.?

He's in an alternate reality I think.

So not only did Roode get screwed out of the belt because of Hogan he can't even get a face-to-face with Angle this week.

exactly

[Twincest]

Not necessarily. His "one week off" might simply mean one week without physical activity. Could still show up and cut a promo.

[Johnny D]

How about a few MONTHS off, with him vacating the belt? Ah, screw anything TNA does now..

[Deleted]

Kurt Angle should not go out for the Olympics again.

I can just imagine Angle getting confused midmatch and try to moonsault off the judge's table.

[gnr123]

Not that I care, but I still will never understand why they allowed Kurt Angle to retain the belt when he was hurt.

Typical TNA, no common sense.

Common sense doesn't put butts in the seat! Common sense didn't sell out MSG to wrestle Andre the Giant! Common sense didn't take 8 bumps on a bad back!

Kurt's going full Misawa.
