Kurt Angle Backstage: Vocal and Injured

We'll be honest, we're not sure what Kurt Angle is doing in ECW. He's a brand name, the WWE obviously wants him to carry this new brand - but he's also a wasted talent now.

Angle may feel the same way. Reportledly, he's quite vocal in how he is being used in ECW, to the point that one insider described him as being “whiney.” Ouch!

Most wrestlers don’t have any problem with it, however, and view Angle as simply standing up for himself. But the writers do see it as a headache sometimes. In the past, Angle has always just gone with the flow and not offered any input for his character or storylines.

Making matters worse, The Wrestling Machine is really hurting at the moment. He usually puts up a tough fight before he lets an injury get the best of him, dating back to his amateur wrestling days. Therefore, there is major concern now that Angle could be out for awhile

ECW ratings, we're sure, would suffer if that were the case.
