Kurt Angle praised WWE during a Slam Wrestling interview for covering the rehab costs for wrestlers who have addiction problems. "The bumps take a huge toll on people’s bodies." Angle said. "Guys used to take drugs, both recreational and medical, to ease the pain. And the WWE has done a good thing to open up drug rehab for all current and past stars."

Angle also stated that the younger wrestlers have learned from the mistakes made by the veterans. "The young wrestlers of today have seen all these problems," he continued. "Their idea of a good time isn’t drinking, partying, doing drugs, it's playing video games all night." To read the full story, visit Slam Wrestling.

Powell's POV: Angle also hyped Sunday's TNA Slammiversary pay-per-view, commented on the death of Mitsuharu Misawa, and spoke more about the drug problem in wrestling. It's a good read, and I know I can't be the only person who finds it interesting to hear Angle praising WWE in most of his recent interviews.
