Kurt Angle Planning To Have Neck Fusion Surgery

WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle is set go under the knife once again, as he plans to have major neck fusion surgery next year.

The Olympic Hero recently had surgery on his back, which helped alleviate some of the intense pain he was experiencing.

Speaking about that procedure on a recent edition of his The Kurt Angle Show podcast, he said:

"I still have pain in my lower back but I don't have pain running down my legs anymore. They kicked that but the pain in my back is still there and it's unfortunate but I can deal with this, I couldn't deal with the pain running down my legs. I'm happy with the surgery".

Angle also had both of his knees replaced last May.

Discussing his decision to finally have the neck fusion surgery, Kurt said:

"My neck is messed up. Next is my neck surgery. I'm probably going to have fusion next year and hopefully that will help my body and eventually I'll be able to play with my kids. My knees, I've been able to come out of that pretty good so once my back heals, I'll start being able to play with my kids, throw 'em around the pool, carrying them on my back, doing that kind of stuff". 

Angle recently revealed that he is open to a return match, albeit in a pre-recorded 'cinematic' setting.
