Kurt Angle to undergo double knee replacement surgery next month

Kurt Angle will be undergoing double knee replacement surgery next month. 

The 53-year-old revealed the news on an episode of The Kurt Angle Show. 

“I’m having my knees replaced next month,” Angle said. “Both of them at the same time, I’m getting it over with. I’ll be on a wheelchair or a walker.”

During an episode of his podcast released in August 2021, Angle noted that he requires neck fusion surgery but has been putting it off for many years. 

“My neck is not that great,” Angle said. “I have a lot of motor skill problems in my hands, my fingers because of my neck. Numbness down my arms, I have a lot of pain in my neck. I’ve been putting off fusion surgery for gosh, 15 years. I might not be able to put it off for much longer, I’m eventually going to have to have fusion. I’ve had the quick fix surgeries just so I could get back in the ring again and the last one I did I think was 2015. I’m eventually going to have to have fusion, I’ve just been putting it off.”
