Trending
Kurt Angle, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon were a part of an on-screen love triangle in WWE back in 2000. While Triple H and Stephanie McMahon had a real-life relationship as well, Kurt Angle was added to the dynamic for storyline purposes.
One of the most controversial promos that took place during that program was the kiss between Kurt Angle and Stephanie McMahon backstage. Speaking on The Kurt Angle Show, the former WWE Champion talked about how awkward his kiss with Stephanie McMahon was.
''Oh, this was ridiculously weird. I mean, you know, come backstage with Stephanie, and I had to do a pre-tape that was going live. So, we weren't going to tape it; it was going to be a one-take. I think Vince did that on purpose, so we only had to kiss once.''
Angle revealed that Vince McMahon directing the segment made it all-the-more weird. He said that he felt very uncomfortable with Stephanie McMahon's father being present while he had to kiss her and did not want to kiss her in a manner that would seem disrespectful.
