Oh, it’s true, it’s damn true!
Both Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar have rich amateur wrestling backgrounds. Lesnar is a NCAA Division I champion while Kurt Angle is an Olympic Gold Medalist for the USA. Once, someone mentioned the idea of a real wrestling match between the two men and Lesnar replied that Angle was too small. Irked, not only did Angle take him on but even bested him when the match was finally done. Both men have tremendous respect for one another.
