Kurt Angle Might Only Miss Six Weeks Of Action
Submitted by Matt Boone on Monday, March 31, 2003 at 1:09 AM EST



The following are highlights from an interview on WWE.com:

In some pretty shocking news, Kurt Angle was told by a doctor from Pittsburgh, Dr. Jho, that there is a procedure he could undergo that would result in him only missing four to six weeks. While the original plan was retirement, then a year off after surgery, going all the way down to just over a month in absence seems too good to be true.

According to Kurt Angle, the doctor he spoke with offering this procedure seems almost too excited and confident that it will work. The doctor has a strong list of credentials including Scott Hall, who has nothing but good things to say about his work. Kurt Angle actually called Scott Hall and talked to him for about an hour about the doctor, who Hall told him is the best.

Angle is still undecided, however, saying he wants to what's best for both his career and WWE in general. Angle cited Undertaker, Steve Austin, Edge, and The Rock as part-time guys now and realizes the company needs him. Angle said he'll weigh out his options before deciding which doctor and which procedure to go with. However, there is hope that Angle won't be gone forever, or even a year, as originally expected.
