I had the opportunity to interview Kurt Angle and Dawn Marie today at the Off The Record studios. Both of them were once again the epitome of class and coolness, answering my markish questions without talking down to me.Going into the interview, I had no idea what I was going to ask Dawn Marie, I came up with a couple of questions which I wasn’t entirely happy about, but figured that with any luck, she’d lead me into a couple of other things I could ask her. In the end, I didn’t need to worry, these guys are so awesome that you can just ask them about the weather and they’ll tell you a great story.
I’m pretty proud that I got Kurt to re-iterate his challenge to Bret Hart which he made in September on ABC.com. “My dream is to wrestle you Bret Hart at WrestleMania.” Angle talked about his motives for wanting this match. “I would like to be considered among the best ever, and the only way I’ll be able to do that is if I wrestle Bret Hart.” He finished up by saying “I don’t want to put any pressure on you Bret, but if you’ve got one more in you, I’d be honoured if it was with me.”
I thought that was pretty cool. All in all, both of them were awesome to me, and the new WWE representative, Dawn treated me like gold. A great day.
You can see the interview in all it’s glory at TSN.ca’s wrestling site…or if you’d like, you can just read my recap of it.
