Kurt Angle discusses the working relationship between WWE and TNA Wrestling. It's been nearly 20 years since Kurt Angle left WWE for TNA Wrestling. He ultimately spent more time with TNA than with WWE during his active wrestling career. At that time, he helped put TNA on the map, and today, many TNA originals have gone through WWE, which even maintains a working relationship with TNA. Speaking about this relationship during an interview with Podstarz, Angle stated he never believed a connection like this would materialize in his lifetime. He also mentioned that a vast majority of WWE fans may not have seen his work in TNA. Therefore, he hopes that one day, WWE will own the TNA Wrestling library, which includes matches featuring him, Sting, and others. "When I was wrestling for TNA, I was like, 'You know what? A lot of WWE fans haven't seen my work in TNA. I wish WWE would have a relationship with TNA, and possibly buy the library so that WWE fans can see my TNA matches.' It looks like that's eventually going to happen. Right now, they're working together, and I never thought it would happen in a million years, but for some reason, it's happening, and I think a lot of it has to do with TNA has a great company, they really do. They have a lot of great talents, but it's not a threat to WWE," he said. "Back when we were going head-to-head with WWE, we were doing 2 million viewers a week. Sting was on the roster, Kevin Nash, Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair; we had a great roster, and we were giving WWE a run for its money. Today, they're still doing really well, but they're not doing as good as we were doing back then, right? I think that's the reason why WWE opened their arms and said, 'Come on in. We'll collaborate with you,' and I'm just glad it happened eventually. I hope that WWE buys the TNA library. " Fans can learn more about the working relationship between WWE and TNA here. You can find much of the TNA Wrestling Library on TNA+ and plenty of Kurt Angle's work in TNA on the official TNA wrestling YouTube channel.
