I heard that this guy is one of the greatest technical wrestlers of all time, so I watched some of his highest rated matches of all time on Cagematch.

When does the technical wrestling actually start? All he does is spam moves and jump off of things and sometimes wins with a submission out of nowhere he didn't work for.

Also why doesn't he ever sell anything? Why does he wrestle 20 minutes into a match like it just started?

Is Kurt Angle actually a technical wrestler?

Meltzer was right to never give this spot monkey 5 stars
>>
>>18993391
He's really just not a good wrestler, at all. He has no psychology or selling.
>>
>>18993391
angle's greatest assets were his personality and later on percocet
>>
Reminder that Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle recently admitted that it still bothers him that Dave never gave him a 5 star match, for the people who claim Dave is irrelevant :)
>>
>>18993391
He's a poor man's Mick Foley.
>>
>>18993391
He was the Kenny Omega of his day. Athletically impressive spot-spot-spot guy who Meltzer was a mark for. It's just that, back then, Meltzer didn't hand out 5 stars like it was nothing.
>>
>>18993572
So that would make Eddie Kingston the homeless man's version of Mick Foley
>>
>>18993391
He wasn't a technical wrestler. It was always really weird how he was an Olympic gold medalist who rarely did any mat wrestling.
>>
>>18993582
Pretty much. And he does look the part.
>>
>>18993585
He knew that mat wrestling is actually fucking boring to watch.

>>18993391
yes, technically he's a wrestler
>>
>>18993391
I never noticed how terrible Kurt Angle is at selling until I watched his match with HBK, where they're near the end and Shawn is dragging himself to his feet and staggering, and Kurt just gets up and jumps on the top rope like the rest of the match didn't even happen

FPBP

>>18993391
No. He's like Bret Hart. The WWF propaganda is just repeated like it reflects reality. Undertaker and HHH also are purely fabricated WWF myths.
>>
>>18993391
He's massively overrated
>>
>>18993391
You have to be technically proficent to become an olympic gold medalist in wrestling.
You do not have to be so technical in pro wrestling.
I hope i dumbed it down enough for you to understand the diffrences and why he was given such a label
>>
>>18994786
Seethe more Wolfey
>>
>>18993585
Kurt was never trained properly, they rushed him through developmental so all he learned was how to do moves
>>
>>18993423

Why does this fag make the same disingenuous thread every two months? Don't you have something better to do with your time? Go to fucking bed.

>bro u got any of them five star matches for me?
>>
>>18999326
No, learn how to sell first, Kurt
>>
>>18993423
Lmao even Brett Hart has a five star match
>>
Any Angle match is better than every Assplay match.
>>
>>18999466
By what metric?
