Welcome to Crossbody of Work, a show where we break down a wrestler’s career through five of their biggest matches.
This week we start our look at Kurt Angle, one of the greatest wrestlers of the last 25 years. We’re talking about his Olympic gold medal and his jump to pro wrestling in 1999. Angle had one of the greatest rookie years ever, and we take a look at his debut. Plus we watch matches against Brock Lesnar, Stone Cold, The Rock, and more. On top of all these matches, Evan & Javier also talk about:
- Skiing
- Shock jock Chris Jericho
- Meat & milk
- Dr. Oz
And a lot more.
