Trending
One of the few injuries that Kurt Angle caused during his illustrious career came in 2000 when he faced Bob Holly on WWE SmackDown.
Angle usually had no issues performing his signature moonsault on opponents. However, during his match against Holly, the WWE Hall of Famer landed awkwardly and accidentally broke his rival’s arm.

Speaking on The Kurt Angle Show, the Olympic gold medallist revealed that he took Holly to hospital after their match.
“I took care of him. I checked up on him. I took him to the hospital. I went and got him food. I called him for the next several weeks, making sure he was okay. I felt really bad about what happened, and I wanted him to know that I sincerely apologized,” Angle said.
Angle added that he wanted to make sure Holly was mentally and physically okay following his injury. The former Hardcore Champion was in the process of receiving a push before the injury forced him to miss four months of in-ring action.
