On a recent edition of his “The Kurt Angle Show” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle discussed Kenny Omega being sidelined with diverticulitis, his favorite match with Jeff Jarrett, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On who he would book against from today’s wrestling: “Well, it’s a match that will probably never take place, but I would say Roman Reigns versus Kenny Omega [for] the world title. Now, I don’t think that’s ever going to happen unless Kenny Omega switches over to WWE. So it’s it’s probably not going to happen but man, I would love to see that match.”
On Omega’s diverticulitis diagnosis: “That’s a shame man, because that stuff is nasty. I mean, I remember when Brock [Lesnar] had to go through that. And it was a long time, he waited a long time. It takes a long bit of time to get through that.”
On his favorite match with Jeff Jarret: “Well, if there’s any match where I didn’t get hit by a guitar, that would be [it]. Because every time that bastard hit me with a guitar, I bled, all right? And it was a hardway [bleed], it really was. It really opened me up pretty badly. So I would say, I think there was one match we had where he didn’t use a guitar, and I would say that match, but I can’t remember it. I like working with Jeff.”

Kurt Angle Discusses Kenny Omega’s Diverticulitis Diagnosis and Favorite Match with Jeff Jarrett
In a recent episode of “The Kurt Angle Show” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle shared his thoughts on various topics, including Kenny Omega’s battle with diverticulitis and his favorite match with Jeff Jarrett.
Diverticulitis is a condition that occurs when small pouches, called diverticula, form in the lining of the digestive system, particularly in the colon. These pouches can become inflamed or infected, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain, fever, and changes in bowel habits. It is a serious condition that requires medical attention and treatment.
Angle expressed his sympathy for Omega, stating that diverticulitis is a nasty illness. He recalled when Brock Lesnar had to deal with the same condition and emphasized that it takes a significant amount of time to recover from it. Diverticulitis can be a challenging and lengthy process, and Angle understands the difficulties Omega may be facing.
The conversation then shifted to dream matches in today’s wrestling landscape. Angle mentioned that one match he would love to see is Roman Reigns versus Kenny Omega for the world title. However, he acknowledged that this match is unlikely to happen unless Omega joins WWE. Nevertheless, Angle expressed his enthusiasm for the potential clash between two top talents.
Angle also reminisced about his favorite match with Jeff Jarrett. He jokingly mentioned that any match where he didn’t get hit by a guitar would be his favorite because every time Jarrett struck him with a guitar, he would bleed profusely. Angle praised Jarrett’s guitar shots, stating that they were hardway bleeds, meaning they were unintentional and caused real bleeding. Despite the bloodshed, Angle enjoyed working with Jarrett and appreciated their chemistry in the ring.
To provide further insight into Angle’s thoughts, the podcast episode included a video clip where Angle answered fan questions. The video, titled “The Kurt Angle Show #145: Ask Kurt Anything December 2023 AFS,” allowed fans to gain a deeper understanding of Angle’s perspective on various topics.
In conclusion, Kurt Angle’s recent podcast episode covered a range of interesting subjects, including Kenny Omega’s diverticulitis diagnosis and Angle’s favorite match with Jeff Jarrett. Angle expressed his concern for Omega’s health and shared his desire to see dream matches in the wrestling world. The podcast episode provided fans with valuable insights into Angle’s thoughts and experiences in the industry.
