Kurt Angle Speaks On Brock Lesnar Purchasing Private Jet
WWE Hall Of Famer Kurt Angle recently launched a podcast with Conrad Thompson on Adfreeshows.com, the debut episode focusing on Wrestlemania XIX, where Kurt main evented against Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship!
During the episode, Kurt spoke on Brock Lesnar’s hatred for travelling with the WWE, which resulted in him purchasing his own private jet.
Kurt revealed Lesnar’s personal pilot lived in his basement, allowing him control his own travel schedule.
“Well, he hated travel so much he bought a private plane so that he wouldn’t have to go to airports. So, you know, he hired a pilot, and his pilot lived in his basement. He set himself up really good, and you know, he didn’t like to travel”
Lesnar’s dislike for being on the road was the reason for him leaving WWE, trying out for the NFL, which had a significant less amount of travel.
He didn’t want to be on the road all the time. I mean, that’s the reason why he stopped wrestling. That’s why he tried out for pro football. The NFL, because he wanted to be in a city where he could train and compete and not leave except for eight weeks a year where he’d have to travel to another town to have a football game every Sunday. So, it was less travel and more at home. That’s what Brock likes. He likes to be at home.”
