Angle’s past WrestleMania matches

Kurt Angle’s career is truly worthy of his status as one of the best, but it’s his performances at WrestleMania that separate him from the pack. He was involved in a total of 9 WrestleMania matches in his career, providing some entertaining fights for the audience.

Looking back to the matches, WrestleMania 21 is one of the worthiest to mention as Kurt Angle and Shawn Michaels give it their all when they first time met each other on the grandest stage of wrestling. Angle won the encounter finally after a fierce affair between the two legendary superstars. It was one of the finest bouts of his career. WrestleMania 18 also saw Angle winning over Kane. Though this match was not up to the mark as Angle was already in a better position, still, his supremacy at WrestleMania can’t be denied.

However, currently, fans are waiting to see the wrestling machine wearing his wrestling boots once again.
