Kurt Angle’s recent podcast episode of ‘The Kurt Angle Show’ aired on Sunday. During the show, Angle gave an update about ‘Sterling Golden’ having surgery that messed up the area below his waist.

“Hogan had back surgery again. He had the nerves cut from his lower body, he can’t feel his lower body. So, he has to use his cane to walk around.” said the American hero. Angle was under the impression that the 69-year-old “was using the cane” because of his back pain after surgery.

However, that was not the case. Hogan was not going through any pain at all. ‘The Wrestling Machine’, who was one of the opponents of Hogan’s last matches in WWE, added, “He doesn’t have any pain, he has nothing at all. He can’t feel anything.”

‘Thunder Lips’ uses a cane to walk, as he can no longer feel his legs. The Olympic Hero went on to say, “That’s pretty serious. I mean, I really feel for Hogan. He put his heart and soul into the business and it ate him up.” King Kurt was also present on WWE Raw 30 this week and had a “half an hour” talk with ‘The Hulkster’ backstage.

Fans were concerned following this news update from Angle. People opined that Hogan’s infamous leg drop finisher is a primary reason for this condition.

Hopefully, The Hulkster can recover and recuperate well with time. The wrestling community can be glad that Hogan got to enjoy the adulation from fans and his coworkers before the surgery.
