Kurt Angle Suffered Concussion on TNA UK Tour

In an interview by Nicolas Atkin of ESPN UK, Kurt Angle revealed that he suffered a concussion during TNA's recent tour of the UK back in January.

"I'm healthy, I don't have any problems. You have injuries, you're gonna have injuries in wrestling. Everybody does. A lot of people feel I'm banged up. I had some bad luck with my neck for a couple of years in WWE. Ever since I've been pretty healthy as far as my neck."
Angle suffered a concussion on 1/29 in Manchester during a match with Drew Galloway, the first night of the tour. Angle went on to wrestle Bobby Roode and Bobby Lashley in London and Birmingham after he was cleared by a doctor at the live event.

The article noted how Angle's concussion took place around a week prior to Daniel Bryan announcing his retirement from WWE after suffering numerous concussions during his wrestling career including suffering from post-concussion seizures that he hid.

Opinionated View- You know Kurt is that old school mind set guy of the show must go on. I must grind it out. I must keep working. But with stuff like this and what we have learned about the brain and the long term effects this really worries me. I also knows Kurt wants to keep wrestling but with all the injures he's taken I jus think it's time to hang it up.
