Kurt Angle has been lucky enough to have a long career in the professional wrestling business, and throughout the course of his career Kurt has held many major championships.
The WWE Hall of Famer has also wrestled some of the greatest performers to ever step foot in the ring, and at the Royal Rumble in 2003 he defended the WWE Championship against Chris Benoit.
Kurt Angle recently reflected on the match on Instagram, and said that it was one of his best performances while recommending that fans who haven’t seen the match give it a look.
Angle posted the following:
“Up next….. Royal Rumble in January 2019. 16 years ago I had the privilege of defending my WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble. This is how the match was explained verbally to those who haven’t watched it. “Professional wrestling in its purest form is as beautiful as ballet, as elegant as a ballroom dance and as captivating as a theater. By purest form I mean technical wrestling, which in today’s world is almost non-existent. The fiery chain wrestling, involving great chemistry, in-ring psychology and dream like story telling is something that happens when all the stars align.” This match was one of my best performances of my career. If you haven’t seen it, give it a look. #itstrue #wwe #championship #royalrumble”
