– In the video below, Kurt Angle talks to Title Match Wrestling about UFC fighter Conor McGregor and his recent anti-WWE comments. Angle believes Conor is a great fighter but thinks his pro wrestling comments have to do with Conor being interested in a WWE career. Angle says Conor has brought the pro wrestling playbook to UFC. Angle believes Conor should be looked as a kid trying to make more money by being a heel, not some evil kid who thinks badly about people.

– Former WWE NXT Superstar Solomon Crowe (Sami Callihan) turns 29 years old today while former WWE Superstar Jimmy Snuka Jr. turns 45 years old and former TNA star Douglas Williams turns 44.
