Jack Swagger Talks Wanting To Wrestle Kurt Angle, The Best Advice He’s Received And More

Jack Swagger recently spoke to TheSportBible.com to promote WWE’s WrestleMania Revenge tour and more. You can check out the full interview here along with some highlights below.

The best advice he’s ever received:

There were different things from different people, so Tommy Dreamer always instilled it in me to protect my size in the ring and it wasn’t until much later in my career that I realized how important that was. And y’know ‘Taker has been at the top of this business since he’s been the Undertaker so the advice he has is from a different perspective from most guys, so when you sit down and talk to him he’s always teaching you something, whether that’s through him breaking balls or pulling you to one side and saying ‘hey, you fucked up’ or ‘hey, you’re doing good’. But that generation of wrestlers are gone now and lost on this next generation so I feel very fortunate to have benefited from them.

Who he wants to work with in the future:

I recently met Kurt Angle. We were in Pittsburgh and I was working out with R Truth and Kurt was in the same gym. So Truth knows him and he told him I was here and wanted to meet him. It was just before he did the match at that event with Mysterio with all the boxing and MMA fights on the card (laughs). When I first started watching wrestling he was the guy I watched ‘cos he was an amateur and an Olympian and that’s why I watch wrestling, for the technical aspect so yeah, I’d choose Kurt Angle.

If he thinks Kurt Angle will return to WWE:

Ah man, anything’s possible, it’s all we do now is bring people back and honestly, it’s cool. You can go away for a little bit, come back and make some additions to your character, try out some fun new stuff and the crowd loves it. So yeah, anything’s possible with him returning.
