Kurt Angle

The most famous Olympian to have transitioned to professional wrestling, Kurt Angle would tell you - repeatedly, about his accomplishments at the 1996 Summer Olympics. Angle won the gold medal, and to this day, is the only Olympic gold medalist to have competed in WWE.

To make the feat even more impressive, Angle did it with a broken neck. Throughout his professional wrestling career, Angle has had to deal with neck issues, but he will go down as one of the best technical wrestlers of this generation. Kurt won the WWE Championship on multiple occasions, and is currently serving as the General Manager of Monday Night RAW.
