Kurt Angle: "Vince McMahon Thinks He's Going To Live Forever, And I Believe Him"

Kurt Angle did an interview yesterday with an Australian radio station to promote this week's WWE Live Event tour of the land down under, and he spoke with Gary, Tim and Hamish about a number of wrestling topics, including the well trodden "are you going to wrestling again" and the off-the-beaten-path "what was it like when you tried out for the Pittsburgh Steelers."

But it was the question of "Is Vince McMahon a tough bloke to work for?" that produced the most interesting answer.

"If he wants something done a certain way, you better do it that way. And 99.9% of the time he's right. He knows the business very well, and there's a reason why he's still in charge, there's a reason why he continues to do it, even in his later years. He's in his seventies and he's in incredible shape. I asked him one time 'How would you feel (about the state of the company) if you passed away?' He said 'I'm not gonna die.' Vince McMahon thinks he's going to live forever and I believe him."

There you have it, straight from Kurt Angle.

Vince McMahon says he's immortal, and the Olympic Gold Medalist believes him.

Now, is it true? Is it damn true? Well, if there's anyone who could beat death, it's Vince McMahon.

Vince already fought God:

So beating Death shouldn't be all that big of a stretch.
