Kurt Angle apparently has a very aggressive approach to gym motivation. One fan asked the WWE Hall of Famer for a little push to start working out, and Angle responded with something closer to a verbal ass-kicking.
A fan took to TikTok and uploaded a Cameo request from Angle with the caption, “POV: you need motivation to go the gym.” Angle clearly understood the assignment, immediately going after the fan for supposedly “dragging ass” and spending too much time with cheeseburgers instead of treadmills.
“I hear you’ve been dragging ass lately. Well, the only thing that’ll be dragging is my nuts across your forehead if you don’t get your fat ass up and stop hitting the triple cheeseburgers and start hitting the treadmills.”
Angle then pulled out the ultimate trump card. If somebody is looking for an excuse to skip the gym, apparently telling that story to a man who famously won an Olympic gold medal with a broken neck isn’t going to get much sympathy.
“I mean, I won a gold medal with a broken freakin’ neck! You think you can skip the gym because you have a family now? F****** pathetic!”
The Olympic gold medalist wasn’t finished either. Angle wrapped up his motivational speech by threatening to personally kick the fan’s ass if the cheeseburgers and pizza didn’t get replaced with some actual gym time, naturally finishing things with his famous catchphrase.
“If you won’t put down the cheeseburgers and the pizza, then I’m gonna kick your ass. Oh, it’s true. It’s damn true!”
Anyone can pay for a celebrity to tell them to hit the gym, but getting Kurt Angle to threaten you with bodily harm while bringing up his broken freakin’ neck is certainly one way to make sure the message sticks. At the very least, skipping the treadmill is probably going to feel a lot harder after hearing that voice in your head.
Would Kurt Angle screaming at you like this actually motivate you to get to the gym? Let us know what you think in the comments.
