JR on Kurt Angle

Quote :

In a blog posted this afternoon on www.jrsbarbq.com, Jim Ross said Kurt Angle should consider leaving the wrestling industry if he is unable to handle his personal issues.

"I hope that he can recover from this matter and regroup. If regrouping requires Kurt to leave pro wrestling and moving to other endeavors such as acting full-time then so be it," Ross wrote. "Perhaps the former Olympic Gold Medal winning Freestyle Wrestler in the '96 Games in Atlanta puts too much physical pressure on himself in an athletic setting and may be more relaxed and happier if movies were his focus is not being a 'jock.'"

Ross said what occurred with Angle "obviously isn't working for a legitimately decent human being." He feels Angle may need to take some time away from the industry in order to reassess himself.

Here's more:

What has occurred lately for Angle obviously isn't working for a legitimately decent human being. It seems as if problems exist and my theory has always been that if one can't, after doing all that's humanly possible, solve a problem then the only alternative is to eliminate the problem.

There are times in everyone's life where they need to step away from what they feel that they have immersed themselves and take the time to reassess. Trust me on which I speak as, from the best that I can tell, we only pass this way once.

Best advice Angle could ever have. But I seriously doubt he'll take it, unless he's forced to.

The WWE tried to get him to do that before they released him in 2006. It is a damn good thing that they got out from under this a long time ago.
