10 Storylines WWE Stars Hated Doing

10 WWE storylines the wrestlers hated being a part of

3. Kurt Angle's Sharmell obsession

WWE delighted in making Kurt Angle the butt of the joke. To be fair, the Olympic gold medallist himself also enjoyed having a laugh at his own expense, whether it was by wearing a miniature cowboy hat, doing some Shawn Michaels cosplay karaoke or failing to read the back of Edge’s cards.  

Kurt was less fond of being portrayed as a sadistic sexual deviant hell-bent on having his way with another man’s wife. The utterly bizarre storyline that saw Angle pursue Sharmell was chock full of uncomfortable moments that took the direction of Kurt’s character in a whole new and utterly strange direction. 

According to Angle, the storyline was the idea of Vince McMahon, who came up with it after hearing that the former WWE Champion had dated some African American women in the past. 

The Hall of Famer would later say how it was the one storyline he totally regretted doing and, even though he enjoyed wrestling Booker T, would have gladly given that opportunity up if it meant not having to do what he did with Sharmell.
