Kurt breaks Scottys ankle. Kurt gets Stephanie in the LIPLOCK! Kurt Angle Height: 6' 2" Weight: 220 pounds From: Pittsburgh, PA Favorite Quote: "Its true. It's true!" Finishing move: Angle Slam Career Highlights: World Wrestling Federation Champion; Intercontinental Champion; European Champion; King of the Ring 2000; Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle first opened the eyes of the world with his gold-medal performance at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. The Pittsburgh native made his country proud, winning the 220-pound freestyle wrestling competition, and the extraordinarily proud Angle surely won't let anyone forget about it! Angle takes himself very seriously, calling himself the only "real athlete" in the World Wrestling Federation. When the crowd is not behind him, Kurt wonders how anyone could boo an Olympic gold medallist. The year 2000 -- Angle's rookie year in the Federation -- was arguably the best year for any Superstar in the Federation's history. After first winning the European and Intercontinental Titles, Kurt then proceeded to win the 2000 edition of the King of the Ring Tournament. The capper of his Y2K, however, was when the American Hero captured the WWF Championship after defeating The Rock at No Mercy on Nov. 22, 2000.
