Kurt Angle revealed at the recent set of TNA Impact tapings that he would be taking some time off from the company. His reason was that he has to have surgery to remove a tumor in his neck.
It’s not yet known if this is legitimate or a storyline as EC3 took credit for the tumor during the tapings as he beat down Kurt Angle. Chris Melendez made the save for Angle and Angle said he will have a rematch against EC3 for the title but he indicated that it will be a while before he returns.
