Didn't Booker T ask Eddie why he tried to do a double leg takedown on an Olympic Gold Medalist and he replied with something along the lines of "Because I'm stupid" 😂
I'd definitely wanna hear about the stuff he did with Rey and Chavo over the years that the fans aren't privy to. They could even rehash the storyline with Dirty Dom, especially with the kind of heel he is now.
What great stories? How he was a drug addicted failure that left his family almost without a home after he passed because he didn’t pay his taxes? How his daughter became a bulmic because she grew up without a father
@@valeckseimu3132 Kurt is trying to say that he literally didn’t work Eddie in the ring. He was working chavo…I think Kurt is trying to say he literally did not touch Eddie at all that night
@@ShardTown Facts. I'm not trying to disrespect Kurt in any kind of way, but by 2004 his Olympic wrestling was a long time behind him, he was no longer training it competitively, and he was already working with neck problems, and Puder was younger, bigger, stronger, and also a trained fighter. Kurt was almost 36 by then and banged up, it was never going to go good for him against someone with the training / background of Puder. Just two years before, he wrestled Brock Lesnar in an amateur match and held his own, but by 2004 he was too far past it.
That's a really good follow up question too. Kurt talking about a time he fought someone he calls a brother and then talking about his favourite memory, helps keep the mood of the interview in a place of peace and understanding rather than souring the moment. CVV is a consumate professional
Kurt: I went to Eddie and I told Eddie “I apologize. Eddie said to me I’m not ready yet.” I said “Oh yeah?” and we went at it again 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Idk why but thats hilarious to me
He looks unassuming but there really weren't many guys in that WWE locker room who could hang with Kurt in a real fight. He literally has a gold medal in shoot fighting and he was a small heavyweight. Some of the guys he had to beat in the Olympics towered over him in height and size. He used to train against Mark Kerr at the Foxcatcher ranch and that guy is a behemoth. He knows exactly what to do with bigger guys to where their size becomes a disadvantage. He even beat Brock in a shoot wrestling match and Brock is a genetic freak with about 70 pounds on him who was also an NCAA champion wrestler. And as that story goes Brock was asked if he could beat Kurt and he said yes and Kurt found out and immediately challenged him with zero hesitation.
@@BryRobinson So you're just assuming that Kurt is incapable of kicking someone in the balls, poking them in the eye, biting them, glassing them and punching them? 9/10 times a trained fighter will always beat a regular guy. That's just how it is. Kurt will get you on the ground before you even know what happened and then you're his to do with as he pleases. He can bludgeon you, choke you out, anything he wants to do. The man spent his life learning how to take down and control guys who were literal experts at not being taken down and controlled and you think a goof in a bar with a glass is going to trouble him? There's a reason that the guys with wrestling backgrounds thrive in MMA and it's because it's the most difficult discipline to combat against.
@@BryRobinson Dude that was just damn stupidity. He literally asked the guy to punch him and didn't even defend himself 🤦♂ That doesn't prove anything. Kurt Angle would destroy that fat guy
@@BryRobinson That's a weird example. BJ was just toying with him in the first fight and let him hit him multiple times while laughing at him. The random guy did end up landing two good shots eventually and put BJ out. That was dumb of BJ to just let someone throw punches at him. But you're leaving out that BJ got up and kicked the guys ass and choked him out once he realized it was serious and felt embarrassed. A trained fighter is going to beat an untrained fighter the majority of the time. But anyone can land a few sucker punches when the trained fighter isn't even taking the threat serious (the video you're referring to is a great example.)
Kurt: Eddie and I were like brothers. We loved each other and we hated each other hard. I've got two brothers, though there's one in particular I'm referring to here, but I can agree that's exactly how it is.
Kurt Angel is one of the toughest guys in wrestling history and in the olympics in general the guy won a gold medal with a dreaking broking neck for God's sake
@@tonynaqnot sure a r/woosh would apply here. He acknowledged the joke but didn’t think it was good since you could Google Luther’s latest whereabouts. But what do I know
Back then, little scuffles like this happened all the time and it was no big deal because people made up and moved on. Nowadays if two certain individuals do this backstage at a show in London, all hell breaks lose and it almost leads to the downfall of an entire company.
To the people saying why would Eddie try to take down an olympic medalist...maybe cause he's not afraid of a title? You never know til you try and he found out but everyone has an off day.
I do not even remember this faction…. I used to have a photographic memory… used to be able to recall anything and everything from kindergarten on… getting old w/ trauma sucks 😢
No disrespect to Eddie Guerrero, but why is it with that story Eddie had heart but when it comes to CM punk competing in the UFC even though he had heart and determination was ridicule and make fun of, but Eddie wasn’t? I’m just speaking logically. It shouldn’t be a double standards. If Eddie had heart and balls to try to double take down a gold medalist and punk had balls, fighting world-class athletes with no experience and if you ask me, that’s even more ballzy. It was both equally gutsy of the two. But Eddie is the goat 🐐 🙏🏾💯
Ehhhh. I got a feeling that Eddie's past injuries and substance abuse would've caught up to him by the time he reached his 50's. I don't think his body would've allowed him to wrestle at that point.
When I was watching this I was like I wonder if Kurt meme pry is a little hazy, because that’s definitely WM20 and the background is MSG, and there both in there WM 20 attire, I could be wrong tho 😅
He can't gain muscle. He can't work out as hard. Has a lot of nerve damage etc from breaking his neck. So he's just losing a lot of weight cuz can't maintain muscle mass. Losing testosterone as he ages. So he's just becoming a normal person who use to be jacked and that's what you're seeing.
He has spinal stenosis from his neck injury - his neck vertebraes around where he had the fusion have now fused themselves together. As a result he suffers numbness in his arms and fingers, he has lost like three inches on each of his arms, and he can't build muscle because of the nerve damage. He wishes he could wrestle John Cena in Cena's very last WWE match, but he knows he cannot physically go in the ring anymore.

Even he admitted that was idiotic 😂
JBL to Eddie: “Why would you to double leg an Olympic gold medalist?”
Eddie to JBL: “Because I’m freaking stupid!”
Where you think cero mero started lmao
Eddie wrestled in high school and thought he could take him even though he knew better
"I'm not ready to apologize..."
"OH REALLY?!"
The most brotherly way to pick another fight 🤣
*“OH REALLY, ESE?!”*
Trying to double leg a gold medalist is not wise
😂🥇
Apparently that’s what JBL said whilst laughing
Should have went for the triple leg takedown.
Should have went for the quadruple leg takedown.
@@ItApproacheswhere’s that third leg you speak of 🤨
JBL told this story, and said he was stirring the pot but didn’t realise Eddie would shoot for the leg lol
I would have loved to hear Eddie version of the story R.i.p Eddie
it seems kinda fair from both side...maybe Eddy really felt some of those punches, but I dont think Kurt was tryn to hurt him

Ask puder about that
Yeah I give Eddie pops for being bold enough to do a double leg move on a Olympian even though it was a stupid move
I remember Angle, Reigns and Jindrak together but I don’t remember their name being The Honors Society lmao
Yeah i remember because of GM angle but i just assumed they were called team angle or nothing.
I don't think it ever officially had a name. I remember them basically calling it a new Team Angle, but no official name otherwise.
same lol
It must've been an internal name. It was certainly never named on TV. Thanks for the new detail Kurt.
Eddie was probably the most laid back chill silly latino i’ve never met.
Anyone remember Kurt Angle's faction having a name?
I remember Kurt Angle, Jindrak and Luther as a team but not with a name.
Came here to say this, I have never heard "Honor Society" before this clip.
@TeamHunt14 exactly! Even Kurt Angle mentioned that they had a name on his podcast (with Conman Thompson) but he couldn't remember at that time
Kurt: Eddie and I were like brothers. We loved each other and we hated each other hard.
I've got two brothers, though there's one in particular I'm referring to here, but I can agree that's exactly how it is.
The world would be a better place with Uncle Eddie in it
That photo looks like it’s from WMXX MSG
It is
And chavo was a heel at the time, so i don't think he was teaming with eddie
Sometimes things get physical. Eddie obviously was upset and wanted to fight but at least he didn’t try to blast Angle in the face with a punch.
Kurt Angle was the perfect wrestler, he could do it all in the ring and was a great entertainer!
Damn, the stories Eddie could tell with all the platform like these talk shows and podcasts nowadays. I miss him so much.
God I wish he was still here. Can you imagine the stories he’d tell now
These two always had the best chemistry. Both were clowns but when they got mad you could feel the intensity.
Vince was the only man who control these intense unpredictable personalities
Eddie: I ain't ready to forgive you, Kurt: wait what?😡
This is like me, a man with a mouth full of Vodka and a match, trying to fight Smaug (he of the desolation) in a fire fight.
"I asked Eddie. Why did you wanted to leg dive a Olympic Gold Medalist?" - JBL
Kurt Angel is one of the toughest guys in wrestling history and in the olympics in general
the guy won a gold medal with a dreaking broking neck for God's sake
Oh how amazing would it have been to have Eddie here today on these podcasts to tell his stories RIP Latino Heat!
Kurt has to be in everyones top 5 wrestling list
That photo looks like it’s from WM20. The Lumberjack match later in the year on SmackDown is when the fight occurred.
Eddie to me is one of the greatest wrestlers ever.
Eddie was one of the best to ever do it
kurt looks way older than 56
ig injuries and wrestling all these years have taken a toll…
& history of substance abuse granted that he’s clean
He sure does. He sounds good though!
Kurt gave absolutely everything for the wrestling business worked in so much pain constantly it's obviously taken a toll on him
Idk, he looks pretty much 56 to me.
I legitmately never heard anyone referred to their group as Honor Society. I watched Smackdown around that time and they never given them a name.
I don’t know if that picture is from the same day they fought. Cause wrestlers make shit up a lot. Looks like Wrestlemania 20.
💯 I think Kurt has got mixed up because that definitely looks like Mania 20.

Didn’t that faction take place late 2004? After Los Guerreros already broke up?

Eddie would have probably still wrestled now, if he was alive.
If I were a wrestler 3 people I would NEVER try: Kurt, Brock and Benoit. Just doesn’t seem like a great idea 😂😂😂😂
to think how wrestling would of changed if Eddie and Chris benoit were still here and able to wrestle their full careers and retire.
E D D I E !
you know out of all the people to try to double leg lol
And yet, nobody in Gorilla feared for their safety…neither was fired…hmmm…

Freestyle not greco roman
