WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle just underwent a brutal procedure on Tuesday — the American Hero had BOTH his knees replaced … but, luckily, he says everything went off without a hitch!!
The Olympic gold medalist posted a video from the hospital bed minutes ago … shouting out his fans for their well-wishes and detailing the long road of recovery ahead.
“Thank you all for your prayers and best wishes for my 2 knee replacement surgeries today,” Angle said Tuesday. “So far so good.”
“I realize rehab is going to be a bitch, but I’m ready for it.”
The 53-year-old laughed about his legs feeling numb due to an epidural he received for the procedure … appearing to be in good spirits.
Of course, the dude’s had his fair share of pain over the years — Angle won a gold medal in wrestling in 1996 with a broken neck and went on to join the then-WWF in 1998, where he would reach iconic heights as a performer.
The technical wrestler made a name for himself all over the wrestling circuit — fighting for various promotions such as WWF/WWE, ECW, NJPW, and Total Nonstop Action.
In 2017, WWE enshrined the 4-time champion into its Hall of Fame, capping off a remarkable career from one of the greatest wrestlers to step inside the squared circle.
