Kurt Angle Explains How Much Different WWE Is Backstage Now Compared To When He Left In 2006

Kurt Angle was recently interviewed by theMetro.co.uk. He spoke on a wide variety of topics to promote his ‘Angle Strong’ app. One of the most intriguing questions he was asked was about how WWE has changed since he left in 2006.

As we all know by now, Angle returned to WWE a decade later and is now the General Manager of RAW.

So how much has changed? According to Angle, a lot:

“I can tell you that it is a completely different world today. They cater to the athletes so much, from diet to exercise, including at the buildings. When I was there before we only had one meal between one and three PM, and if you missed it too bad, but now they’re healthy food at the building until the late evening”

He continued:

“The athletes get drug tested at least four to 12 times a year to make sure they’re clean, and they have a wellness policy where they have to take physicals every year to make sure they can wrestle. If you bang up your knee and you’re not sure if you’re hurt but you want to go wrestle, you can’t. They’re being more safe than sorry and that’s incredible.”
