Ric Flair once told Kurt Angle he should sign with WWE instead of WCW.

Who knew the advice would turn out to be that good?

Kurt Angle spoke about this subject during a recent installment of his official podcast, The Kurt Angle Show.

Featured below is an excerpt from the show where he touches on this topic.

“Oh God, Ric brings it up all the time (he laughs). He actually rubs it in my face, ‘Hey, I saved your career by going to WWF instead of WCW, but Ric was right. I think if I went to WCW, they probably wouldn’t have utilized me like WWE did. I’m very grateful for Ric’s advice.

He directed me in the right direction. He’s a wrestler that’s not selfish. He’s very giving. He’s always been like that. Ric’s never been political. He’s really a good guy, and he’s going to give the right advice all the time.”
