Kurt Angle on his recovery from addiction, return to WWE

By Scott Keith on 25 April 2017

Hi Scott,

I recently had the opportunity to talk with Kurt Angle about his recovery from addiction and the work he’s doing now to help others stay sober after treatment. Here is my story for Addiction Professional magazine:

And when we wrapped up the main part of our discussion, Kurt was nice enough to let me hit him with some wrestling questions for the podcast I host in my spare time. We covered a lot of stuff in 25 minutes, including the chain of events that led to his WWE return, whether he’d be satisfied with his career if he never wrestles another WWE match, and his work behind the scenes sharing advice with a new generation of talent:
