Kurt Angle
While speaking with Stone Cold Steve Austin on his "Broken Skull Sessions" show, Hall of Famer Kurt Angle recalled a bunch of backstage incidents from his initial WWE stint. One such incident saw Angle storming into a meeting and pulling his pants down in front of Vince McMahon out of frustration. Angle wanted to show Vince McMahon the pain he was going through. When he pulled his pants down, black and blue marks were clearly visible across his groin area.

The day before I quit, I went into a production meeting. I walked up to the front where Vince and the people were. I pulled my pants down my knees. B**ls are showing. Big black and blue marks, all across my groin area, all the way down my hamstring, up to the groin and my stomach. I tore three muscles the night before, at a house show. That night, for RAW, I was supposed to do a Triple Threat Ladder match. I just walked in, and wanted Vince to see what's going on, and why I'm so unhappy.
Vince McMahon knew right away that he needed to talk to Angle. He told Angle to come to his office in Stamford, where they could have a proper talk. Soon after, Kurt Angle and WWE parted ways, and he wouldn't come back for almost a decade.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
