Big Spoiler Update on Kurt Angle’s Health and TNA Status

June 28, 2015

As noted, Kurt Angle revealed to the live crowd during this week’s TNA Impact Wrestling tapings that he discovered a tumor on his neck and will require surgery to have it removed.

According to The Wrestling Observer, the surgery is not a major operation and Angle should be able to return to the ring in about three weeks following the procedure.

Angle did not specify a return date, but if three weeks is the turn around time following this type of surgery, Angle could be ready to return at the next set of Impact Wrestling tapings in July.

Angle noted in his promo to the live crowd that we might not see him for awhile, which seemed to imply he’d be gone longer than a few weeks. He might have said this because TNA taped TV which will take them through early August, so even though Angle might be ready to return in a few weeks, we might not see him on Impact until the July taped episodes air.
